(We see the animals doing their daily needs)
Narrator: Wait, I have to do THIS episode too? Ugh, I wish I never signed that contract. Ugh, anyways, the dumb animals are doing things again-Why am I telling you all this? You can see perfectly fine!
(We see Fred watching television, Catnip trying to catch a rat, and Cotton shoving buckets of sugar in his mouth)
(Door knock)
Fred: Catnip, get the door!
Catnip: CAN'T.RAT.WALKING.AROUND.MUST.CRUSH.KILL.DESTROY
Fred: Cotton?
Cotton: *muffled* I'MEATINSUGARSORRYFREDHAHAHAH
Fred: Agh.
(Fred walks up and opens the door. At the door, we see a very small cat wearing a black cape)
Fred: Uh..hello-
Muffins: SILENCE MORTAL! FOR I AM..MUFFINS! THE PRINCE OF EVIL! AND I HAVE MOVED INTO THE APARTMENT TO DESTROY EVERYONE! ALL MUST FEAR ME!
Fred: Uh..kid, Halloween was six months ago.
Muffins: FOOLISH MORTAL! THIS IS NO COSTUME! I SHALL CONSUME THIS ENTIRE APARTMENT WITH EVIL!!
Fred:...*Slams door*
Catnip: Who was that?
Fred: I'm assuming it's one of those kids from down the street who celebrate holidays everyday.
(Door knock again)
Fred: Augh, coming.
(Fred opens the door, Muffins is at the door)
Muffins: FOOLISH MORTAL! HOW DARE YOU IGNORE MY DEATH TREATS! JUST FOR THAT, I SHALL DESTROY YOU AND YOUR FRIEND-
(Fred slams the door)
Fred: Jeez, that kid is nuts.
(Cotton holds up a peanut)
Cotton: Like dis?
(Door knock once more)
Fred: Oh, for the love of-
(Fred opens the door. Muffins is at the door once more)
Fred: Kid, for the last time, it's NOT HALLOWEEN, SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY CANDY!
(Cotton appears, holding up a bucket of candy)
Cotton: BUT DERS SUM RIGHT HERE
(Cotton throws the bucket at Muffins)
Muffins: FOOLISH MORTAL! THAT CROSSED THE LINE! EVERY DAY, EVERY HOUR, EVERY MONTH, EVERY YEAR, I WILL BE AT YOUR DOOR, AWAITING TO TORTURE YOU ALL! SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR CALM LIFESTYLE! I WILL MAKE YOUR LIVES A LIVING HEL-...UH...HECK!
Fred: *Slams door*
Muffins: OH! AND THANKS FOR THE FOOLISH CANDY!
Catnip: *with the rat in his mouth* What'd that kid want?
Fred: He said he was going to make our lives a living heck or something like that. His yelling burst my eardrums.
Cotton: LIEK DIS?
(Cotton suddenly shrinks, enters one of Fred's ears and breaks the eardrum)
Fred: OOOOOOWWWW-Yeah. Like that.
Catnip: A living heck? That sounds bad.
Fred: Well, obviously. But I highly doubt that kid knows what he's saying.
(We cut to Muffins entering his apartment room. As he walks through it, the room begins to look more and more demonic)
(Muffins sits in a chair)
Muffin: THAT FOOLISH DOG AND HIS FOOLISH FRIENDS WILL PAY FOR THROWING THAT FOOLISH BUCKET AT ME! BUT WHAT SHALL I DO TO THEIR FOOLISH LIVES? SHALL I THROW THEM IN A FOOLISH OCEAN FILLED WITH FOOLISH SHARKS? THROW THEM INTO A FOOLISH VOLCANO? OR MAYBE I'LL-
(Phone rings)
Muffins: AGH, IT'S A FOOLISH CALLER CALLING ME ON THE FOOLISH PHONE. I SHALL ANSWER THEIR FOOLISH CALL.
(Muffins answers the phone)
Muffins: FOOLISH GIRLSCOUTS! I WILL NOT ORDER YOUR FOOLISH COOKIES SO THAT I MAY DIGEST THEM! 
(Muffins hangs up)
Muffins: WAIT...THAT'S IT!
(We cut to Fred sitting quietly in the apartment room)
Fred: Ahhh..it's so relaxing. Catnip's out trying and obviously failing to be a hero, Cotton's at some time-freezing soda convention, and Bill isn't asking me for a loan. Ahh...soo relaxing.
(Door knock)
Fred: Coming!
(Fred opens the door. Muffins is at the door, disguised as a girl scout)
Fred: ...Kid, this is just pathetic.
Muffins: SILENCE, DOG! I AM NOT THAT KID YOU SPOKE TO EARLIER! I AM YOUR AVERAGE EVERYDAY GIRLSCOUT! HAVE SOME COOKIES!
(Muffins throws a bunch of cookie boxes at Fred)
Muffins: THAT WILL BE 9999999999999 PAYMENTS OF $9999999999.9999999999!
Fred: UGHHH-*stops for a second* ...Ookkkaaayyyyy.
(Fred hands Muffins 999999999999 yen and shuts the door)
Muffins: THANK YOU DOG-...WAIT A MINUTE! FOOLISH DOG! THIS IS THE CURRENCY USED IN JAPAN! WE ARE NOT IN JAPAN, WE ARE IN AMERICA! COME BACK HERE, FOOLISH DOG!
(Muffins stomps away)
Fred: Heheh. I fooled him.
(We cut to Muffins in his room)
Muffins: THAT FOOLISH DOG IS DRIVING ME INSANE! HE KEEPS OUTSMARTING MY PLANS! HMMMM...WAIT, IF I CANNOT FOOL THE FOOLISH DOG, I SHALL FOOL HIS FOOLISH FRIENDS! MWHAHAHAHAH!!
(We cut to Catnip walking around town)
Catnip: Hmm, no evil there, no evil here. Hmmm...maybe it just hasn't noticed me..*snaps fingers* I got it! *Grabs megaphone* HHHEEELLLLLOOOOO!?! EVILDOERS!?!? ARE YOU ANYWHERE NEAR DOING EVIL THINGS!? DON'T WORRY, I WON'T STOP YOU! *whispering into megaphone* Hehe..they don't know I'm lyyyyiinnggggg.
(We see Muffins in an alleyway, disguised as a little girl)
Muffins: MWHAHAHAHAH! THAT FOOLISH CAT WILL NOT KNOW WHAT HIT HIM!! I WILL CRY FOR HELP, AND THAT FOOLISH CAT WILL COME TO ME, BECAUSE I AM CRYING FOR HELP! AND WHEN THAT FOOLISH CAT ATTEMPTS TO HELP ME, I WILL UNLEASH MY DARK POWERS AND DESTROY THAT FOOLISH CAT! MWHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH!
Catnip (Voice): What was that? Sounded like chipmunk with rabies.
Muffins: HUH. DO I REALLY SOUND LIKE THAT-I MEAN, HELP! HELP! WON'T SOME FOOLISH-ERRR..."HEROIC" HERO COME AND SAVE ME IN MY HOUR OF NEED?!
Catnip (Voice): Well, looks like that rabies chipmunk needs my help!
(Muffins peeks out the alleyway, and sees Catnip coming)
Muffins: YES! EVERYTHING IS GOING TO PLAN!
(Catnip walks into the alleyway)
