Tortoise Cat: Why did the Big One spoil my fun with Mousy last night?
Chameleon: Mousy was exhausted...You were playing WAY too rough, WAY past long enough! You might have killed your favorite little playmate!
Tortoise Cat: I can't help that...I AM a CAT!
Chameleon: Yes...And Mousy is NOT a toy, Tortoise Cat. Luckily you woke the Big One with your antics. The Big One thought Mousy was dead aleady but I whispered "Mousy is only pretend dead - so far - and exhausted...!"
Mousy: If the Big One hadn't picked me up just then and lifted me back outside to my hideout I might have died, FOR REAL, Tortoise Cat!
Tortoise Cat: So are we still friends, Mousy?
Chameleon: Oh my goodness!!!
