The Great Tigger Detective part 10 - Cat R. Waul's Plan

Next, Fidget was shwon carrying Olivia towards a bottle, lying on its side.
Olivia: Stop! Let me go! You ugly old thing!
Fidget pushes her inside and puts the cork in the bottle.
Fidget: That ought to hold ya!
Olivia get in the green bottle by the cork.
Olivia: (Shouts) Help! LET ME OUT! LET ME OUT!!!
Fidget: See how you like that!
He blows her raspberry, then strides away towards Ratigan, who is looking through the bag.
Ratigan: Ah, the uniforms. Oh Fidget, I knew I could rely on you. Now, you didn't forget anything?
Fidget: (Cackles) No problem. I took care of everything. Everything on the list.
Unfortunately, as he opens his wing to display the list, he realizes it's missing and frantically searches for it.
Fidget: Uh-oh...
Ratigan gets angry.↲Ratigan: What's wrong?
Fidget continues patting himself down.
Fidget: (Panicked) The list...I know...
Ratigan: (Becoming angrier) Where's the list?
Fidget: (Nervously) The list, yeah, yeah, yeah. Well you see, uh, it was like this. I was in the toy store getting uniforms when I heard "A-roo A-roo" [i.e. Toby].
Ratigan: (Puzzled, impatiently) You're not coming through.
Fidget imitates a dog, panting.
Fidget: A dog came. I ran. I had baby bonnet, girl in bag and Basil chased me.
Hearing the last piece of information, Ratigan cracks.
Ratigan: What? Basil on the case?! Why you gibbering little...
Fidget cowers as Ratigan clutches his chest, apparently having a heart attack. His face turns red with fury, but just as quickly as his temper rose, Ratigan calms down with a chuckle. He scoops Fidget into his arms.
Ratigan: Oh, my dear Fidget. You have been hanging upside down too long.
Fidget: You mean, you're not mad? I'm glad you're taking it so well.
Ratigan carries Fidget to the back. There was silence until the sound of a bell ringing and Fidget's screams.
Around the corner, Felicia was holding Fidget, attempting to have the bat for dinner. Fidget keeps making desperate attempts to escape.↲Fidget: (Panicking) Not me, you idiot. No, stop you stupid fur ball!
Felicia squeezes Fidget and placed him in her mouth.↲Fidget: (shouting inside Felicia's mouth) Open up! Open up! Ai, ai, ai! Oh, ow! You're hurting my wings!
Ratigan has his back turned and was leaning against a bottle, rubbing his temples.↲Ratigan: (Ragingly) How dare that idiot Basil poke his stupid nose into my wonderful scheme and foul up everything!
Fidget: (Flying around Felicia's mouth) Let me out! Let me out!
Fidget has managed to climb out of Felicia's mouth.↲HELP!!
Felicia stuff him back inside and keep her mouth plugged with one of her paws.
Ratigan looks at his reflection in the bottle↲Ratigan: Oh, I can just see that insufferable grin on his smug face.
He bangs his head against the bottle and winces in pain, but suddenly has a wicked idea and smiles to match.
Ratigan: Yes... Yes, I can just see it. (Chuckles) Felicia, release him.
Fidget: I'm too young to die!
Felicia pouts for a moment, then spits the poor mangled bat out.
Ratigan, having found some use for the bat after all, holds him up by his cheeks.↲Ratigan: Fidget, you delightful little maniac. You've presented me with a singular opportunity.
He drops Fidget, feigning a look of concern.
Ratigan: Poor Basil! (Malevolently) Oh, he is in for a little surprise.
