Man ( on television ): Believe it or not, each of you

left his greasy, grimy fingerprints

on the murder weapon

and each of you had his own twisted and pathetic motive.

And that, my friends

is why I've called you here this evening.

You see, through careful examination of the facts

and consideration of the evidence

I have deduced that the killer is none other than...

Both: HMM...

HMM...

HUH.

MM-HMM...

THE BLOOD-SUCKING ELECTRIC COMPANY!

JUST BECAUSE I CAN'T PAY THE BILL

DOESN'T MEAN THEY SHOULD SHUT OFF THE POWER!

( buzzing )

I'M GOING TO GIVE THEM A PIECE OF...

Dog: FIREFLY! FIREFLY!

FIREFLY! FIREFLY!

FIREFLY! FIREFLY!

Cat: DOWN, BOY!

FIREFLY! FIREFLY!

FIREFLY! FIREFLY! FIREFLY! FIREFLY!

FIREFLY... COME BACK HERE

YOU FIREFLY.

MAN! NEWS FLASH, CAT:

WHEN YOU DON'T PAY YOUR ELECTRIC BILL

MY TV DON'T WORK AND THAT'S UNACCEPTABLE.

I'VE ALREADY ORDERED THE FIGHT.

DON'T START WITH ME, FREELOADER.

( Dog babbling )

( panting )

GEESH, LOOK AT THAT DOG.

WHAT A DYNAMO.

HE'S JUST BURSTING WITH ENERGY.

NO KIDDING!

HEY... NO KIDDING.

GREAT IDEA, WINSLOW.

EH... WHAT IS?

YOU'LL SEE.

AND IT BETTER WORK

OR I'M GOING TO HAVE TO HAVE A LOT MORE BRIGHT IDEAS

TO KEEP THE HOUSE LIT UP.

KEEP RUNNING, DOG.

YOU'LL GET THAT TURKEY LEG SOONER OR LATER.

OKEY-DOKEY, CAT.

OH, MY TWO FAVORITE THINGS: RUNNING AND FOOD.

THROW IN SOME GARBAGE AND THIS WOULD BE HEAVEN!

( panting )

GOOD THINKING, CAT.

WHAT A FIGHT!

AHH...

NO MORE ELECTRIC BILLS EVER AGAIN.

HEY, I COULD SELL ELECTRICITY

AT A FRACTION OF THE POWER COMPANY'S PRICES

AND STILL MAKE A PROFIT!

( chuckles evilly )

( people murmuring )

Cat: PLUG IN, MY GOOD MAN.

( cash register ringing )

( electricity crackling )

( panting quickly )

( electricity buzzing as Dog pants )

( playing loud chords )

( music begins playing )

( adding machine clicking )

( panting )

ALMOST THERE!

OH, IF I JUST HAD A PAIR OF TONGS.

( straining )

FAR, BUT STILL RUNNING.

( panting )

( gasping )

THAT'S MY BOY.

( crash )

I'M FROM THE ELECTRIC COMPANY.

MIND IF I PLUG IN?

WHY, SURE.

( giggling )

GO RIGHT AHEAD.

( electricity crackles )

( machinery starts humming )

OH, I'M RICH.

I'M RICH!

AND I'LL BE RICH FOREVER!

STILL RUNNING...

( panting slows )

DOG LOVES TO RUN.

HO-HO-HO, DOG, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

KEEP MOVING, COME ON!

EVERYONE'S COUNTING ON YOU!

( weakly ): CAN'T CATCH MEAT.

OH, SURE, SURE YOU CAN, JUST RUN FASTER.

VERY TIRED... KIND OF BORED.

OKAY, OKAY.

WHAT WE NEED IS SOME LIVE BAIT.

YES!

( chuckles )

DON'T WORRY, EDDIE, MY BOY.

YOU'LL BE PERFECTLY SAFE.

ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS EGG HIM ON.

NO PROBLEM.

EGGING ON IS MY SPECIALTY.

LEAVE IT TO ME.

I AM THE ALBERT EINSTEIN OF EGGING ON.

( Dog panting )

YOU CALL THAT RUNNING?

IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE CRAWLING

THROUGH MELTED MARSHMALLOWS

SO PICK UP THOSE PUPPIES, PUPPY!

( blowing raspberry )

( panting faster )

SQUIRREL, SQUIRREL, SQUIRREL

SQUIRREL, SQUIRREL!

I GOT TO GET THE SQUIRREL!

( electricity crackling )

( appliances rumbling and whirring )

( indistinct voices )

( electricity crackling )

NAH, NANNY-NAH, BOOBOO...

STICK YOUR HEAD IN A...

Dog: YOU CAN'T TALK TO ME LIKE THAT.

( growling )

( snoring )

HEY, DOG, WHAT'S THE RUMPUS?

NO RUMPUS-- I AM ABOUT TO CATCH THE SQUIRRELLY.

WHAT ARE YOU, NUTS?

TAKE A LOOK AROUND.

THE SQUIRREL'S ASLEEP

AND YOU STILL CAN'T CATCH HIM.

BUT...

YOU'RE CAT'S PRISONER.

BUT, CAT SAID...

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT CAT SAYS.

IT'S WHAT YOU SEE.

YOU GOTS NO FREEDOM

AND YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO CATCH THAT SQUIRREL.

NEVER...

EVER.

EVER?

YES... I... AM!

EVER!

OH, YEAH?!

WATCH THIS!

( growling ferociously )

SQUIRREL...

SQUIRREL...

GONNA GET THE, GONNA GET THE

GONNA GET THE SQUIRREL!

( yelling )

WHAT? HUH?

GET THE SQUIRREL... WATCH ME DO IT!

( growling ferociously )

( electricity buzzing loudly )

NOW I'M GETTING CLOSE!

WAIT... STOP, STOP!

THIS IS TOO MUCH ENERGY.

YOU'RE GOING TO CAUSE A POWER SURGE!

( bulbs shattering )

( electricity crackling )

( music blasts )

( screams )

HELLO... NEARBURGH!

YOU READY TO ROCK?

( screaming )

OH, I SMELL FRIED POODLE.

( grunting )

( music playing )

DISCO WILL NEVER DIE.

( panting )

( growling )

Worker: SHE'S GOING TO BLOW!

( explosion )

Cat: DOG, DOG, NO.

FOR THE LOVE OF ME, STOP!

THIS IS MADNESS!

PLEASE, IT'S MADNESS, I TELL YOU!

( screams )

( yells )

( Cat yelling )

( dog blathering )

( screams )

( yelling )

( cords twanging )

( straining )

Dog: I SMELL VICTORY!

WHEW.

( blathering )

( panting and straining )

( buildings rumbling )

( growling maniacally )

( screaming )

MUST... UNHOOK... DOG.

ONLY SECONDS LEFT.

COOL YOUR JETS, DOG.

I WAS JUST EGGING YOU ON.

THAT'S MY JOB!

Dog ( chanting ): GONNA GET YA, GONNA GET YA...

GONNA GET YA, GONNA GET YA, GONNA GET YA!

( screaming )

( panting )

( whooping )

I'VE GOTCHA!

HA, THEY SAID IT COULDN'T BE DONE!

( Cat screams )

( Dog growling )

LISTEN, DOG, I'M SORRY FOR USING YOU.

IT WAS WRONG.

BUT THINK OF WHAT YOU'RE DOING!

YOU'LL BE TAKING AWAY SQUIRREL'S FREEDOM

JUST LIKE I TOOK YOURS.

LET ME GO!

SORRY, SQUIRREL, YOU DESERVE TO BE FREE.

WE ALL DO.

( whooping )

I'M FREE!

I'M FREE, I'M FR...

( screams )

I'M SO SORRY, DOG.

( Squirrel hits ground )

CAN YOU EVER FORGIVE ME?

NO NEED TO APOLOGIZE, CAT.

I ALREADY TOLD YOU: THIS DOG LOVES TO RUN.

TERRIFIC.

THEN WHY DON'T YOU RUN NEARBURGH

BACK TO WHERE IT USED TO BE.

I DON'T KNOW, CAT.

OUCH!

I THINK I MIGHT HAVE PULLED A HAMSTER STRING.

( panting )

Dog: HI-HO-DIGGITY!

THIS DOG LOVES TO WATCH YOU RUN!

Cat: KITCHEN--

CLEAN AS A WHISTLE.

CHECK.

LIVING ROOM...

( squeaking )

SPOTLESS.

CHECK.

BATHROOM-- PURRFECT.

CHECKMATE.

( laughs )

WHEN SALLY GETS HERE

SHE'S GOING TO REALLY BE IMPRESSED.

EVEN BACK IN SECOND GRADE

SALLY HAD A THING ABOUT BEING NEAT AND ORDERLY.

( Cat laughs fondly )

JUST LIKE ME.

Dog: REMEMBER WHEN YOU ASKED HER TO THE SECOND-GRADE PROM?

Cat: YES, AND SHE SAID...

NO!

Cat: CLAIMING I WAS TOO DISORDERLY.

BUT NOW, AFTER ALL THESE YEARS

SALLY'S STOPPING BY FOR A LITTLE REUNION.

AND SHE'LL FINALLY SEE THAT I'M THE CAT FOR HER.

( yells )

MY BEAUTIFUL INDOOR LAWN!

DOG, YOU HAD ONE JOB-- TO TAKE CARE OF THE GRASS--

AND YOU BLEW IT!

NO PROBLEM, CAT.

I'LL FIX THINGS IN A JIFFY.
