Script

Scene 1-EXT
A bird's eye veiw of a suburbian housing area. Slow zoom in to a house.

Scene 2 - INT
KITTY is laying on a carpet in the front room, basking in the beams from the afternoon sun.

GIRL (offscreen)
Here kitty, kitty! Where are you?

Kitty starts, suddenly very worried with an "Oh Shit" look.

Girl (offscreen)
There you are!

Scene cuts to black.


Scene 3A - INT
Fade in to see Kitty with a huge bow tied to her neck. She is staring toward the camera, annoyed.

Girl (offscreen - fades in intervals)
Aren't you pretty! (quieter) Now wait right there, (quieter) I'll be right back with an even better surprise!

Kitty waits a second or two, glaring in the direction of the leaving girl, then looks around quickly. Upon finding the coast is clear, Kitty tries to make a run for it but trips on the bow and falls to the ground. She gets back up, trying to stare at the bow, obviously annoyed.

Scene 3B -INT
Kitty carefully walks to the fireplace and rubs against the bricks in an attempt to get the bow off. It doesn't work.

Scene 3C -INT
Kitty then tries to pry the bow off with the rocking chair. The bow catches and the chair rocks back as Kitty starts choking. As the chair rocks forward it throws Kitty, allowing Kitty to breathe.

Scene 3D - INT
Kitty tries her luck rubbing against the flower pot in the corner. She knocks it off balance, and it falls on her with a crash. Scene fades out.


Scene 4- INT
Fade in to Kitty sitting on the middle rug and cleaning off the last of the dirt from her hind paw. As she straightens the bow brushes against the paw, and she gets a look of "AHA!". She then pries her front right paw into the collar bow in an attempt to force it off, but only manages to temporarily stretch her neck. In trying to pull it out, Kitty find the paw is now stuck. She uses her right hind paw to try to free it and only manages to catch that one as well, causing her to fall to her side. She wrestles with the bow using the other two free paws, getting each one caught in a tangle that causes her to lose balance. She rolls offscreen and a crash is heard. Fade to black.

Scene 5- INT
Fade in to a child's drawing of a girl getting something tight off by getting it wet, then a child's image of Kitty getting the bow off with water. Wipe to Kitty carefully holding her neck over a water bowl that has been dragged into the room. She is trying to use a front paw to get it wet without getting herself wet. She loses balance, though, and falls straight onto the water bowl, causing it to flip into the air with a crash. Water splashes everywhere in front of the camera. When it clears we see Kitty from the neck up, soaking. As Kitty glares, annoyed, the bow starts obviously shrinking. Kitty's eyes go wide and while glancing down at the bow she starts turning blue in the face. Kitty then collapses down and offscreen. Fade to black.

Scene 6 - INT
Fade in to see Kitty beside a vacuum, lining up her bow and checking the loose cord to see if it's plugged in. She hits the on button, and the bow is sucked up, fastening Kitty to the vacuum as it begins to race around the room randomly. Kity is thrown against the bricks, chair, and plant before the vacuum races offscreen, taking Kitty with it. Cut to black: a crash is heard.

Scene 7 - INT
Fade in to see Kitty flopped on the carpet, frazzled and panting. She sighs, getting up. A paw sits on the tail end of the bow, and as Kitty stands the bow is pulled loose. It falls to the ground. Kitty freezes, slowly looks down at the ribbon, then looks up, grinning. She takes a step to leave.

Girl (offscreen, fading in with footsteps)
Here Kitty Kitty!

Kitty freezes with a "Not again!"look.

Girl (offscreen)
I found your surprise, look!

Kitty looks back at the bow, reluctant to see. She turns and looks toward the Girl. Her eyes grow wide.

Scene 8 - EXT
Overhead of house roof. Quick zoom out.

Kitty
MEEEEEEEEEEEEWRRRRRRRR!

Fade to black.
