## Kayla

* [holding Jerry's tiny card] Oh, wow. This is so detailed.
* We could hire an exterminator, or we can leverage millions of years of predatory evolution.
* That Rodentia is toast.
* I think I might have just pulled this off.
* That is a wanted dead or alive, and your stick figure of a mouse, and your Es are backwards. It is never going to work.
* You guys got to stop fighting. It's like you have been doing this for years.
* Stay calm, everyone.

## Terrence

* This hotel has been hosted to four presidents, three popes, two kings, and one queen.
* If a picture of this mouse is tweeted out to Insta BookFace or Ticky Tok, we will be ruined.
* This is insane.
* That is probably a scream of delight.

## Mr. DuBros

* Could he wear a jaunty hat? That would be adorable.
* Tom is an employee! He has a name tag!
* Well, this is a disaster.

## Dialogue

    Butch: Well, well, well. Look at what we got here. [grabs Tom by the neck] You know, if I wasn't a betting cat, I'd say Tommy boy here is trying to break into the hotel.
    Lightning: That's sure what it looks like.
    Topsy: This here is our alley, punk! Which makes this our hotel!
    Butch: Wait, hold up. Are you trying to break into our hotel? [Tom shakes his head] Yo, guys, don't worry about it. It was a big misunderstanding. Right, Tom? [Tom laughs] Are you laughing at me? Now, I'm sure you know what I do to cats that laugh at me.
    Topsy: Come on, boss! Preach! Preach to him!
    Butch: Now, I was about to, if you would shut that grill and let me handle this.
    [Tom sees an animal control truck driving by]
    Topsy: My bad, boss.
    Butch: So, are you gonna answer me?
    [Tom whistles to catch the animal control officer's attention as Butch turns to see the animal control truck backing up]
    Meathead: Oh, snap! It's five-o! Drop and run!
    Lightning: Oh, no, not again!
    [Butch turns back to find that there's a mop in Tom's stead and he and the alley cats make a run for it]
    Topsy: Somebody pick me up, I can't run that fast!
    Butch: Hey, I'll see you again, Tom!
    Lightning: Break yourself!
    Animal Control Officer: [as he's chasing the alley cats] Hey, get back here!
    Spike: This is definitely your bad.
