(voiceover) In a few shakes of a dog’s tail, Millie’s house became the haven for homeless canines. But while this party was the coolest, there was a certain party down the street. Her name strikes fear into sane dogs everywhere, Katrina Stoneheart, along with her poor excuse for a pet, Catgut, (Catgut meows) and her nyah-nyah daughter, Brattina.
Mommy Dearest, those awful dogs are barking again! Make them stop, Mommy Dearest! Make them stop!
I CAN’T STAND IT! Oh -ho-ho-ho! Oh! (tearing a paper) Oh, I hate the sound of dogs. I hate the smell of dogs. I hate the eyes, ears, noses and even the tails of dogs.
(singing) We hate the doggies! We hate the doggies!
I’ll figure out a way to make great-great aunt Millie get rid of these dogs, or I’ll just scream! (poking Brattina’s nose) Now, Brattina, go do your chores!
But, Mommy Dearest! That’s why we let Holly live here.
So, it is. So, it is. Holly!
Good afternoon, Auntie Katrina. Good afternoon, Brattina.
KBKatrina and Brattina
Blah! Blah!
Catgut(meows)
I’m going down to Millie Trueblood’s house. Your chores better be down when I get back.
Holly is so cute. I hate cute! I put cute in the blender.
Now who could that be? (gasps) Why hello, Katrina.
Don’t give me any of that sweet stuff, great Aunt Millicent! This is the showdown!
Catgut
(meows)
Oh, just something from the Board of Health. Forcing you to get rid of these mangy mutts once and for all! (laughs evilly)
(voiceover) So that rotten Katrina Stoneheart was gonna force us pups out into the street and there was nothing Millie could do about it.
Who’s coming, Mommy Dearest?
Mmm. Investors, Brattina. Investors in this scheme that will get rid of those Pound Puppies once and for all.
Catgut
(meows)
Oh. My investors are here.
(happily) Lord and Lady Belveshire, the third richest couple in the country. And I intend to take them for an absolute fortune.
(using the binoculars) All the puppies are inside, Mommy Dearest.
Now’s your chance, Catgut.
Catgut
(meows)
I want you and your friends to sneak into that house and shred everything inside.
But don’t let anyone see you. I want those flea-bitten puppies to take them blame.
Good luck! And have a ripping good time! (laughs evilly)
Catgut
(laughs evilly)
Catgut
(barks like a dog)
CTCat Thug #1
Hey! It’s that sloppy mutt who’s been disturbing the peace!
CTCat Thug #2
Let’s teach him some manners!
Catgut
(laughs evilly)
ZZazu
Kitty-cat, you’re out of luck! The zipper on your suit is stuck!
Catgut
(meows)
CTCat Thug #2
Okay, buddy. We’re gonna put an end to your one-dog Wrecking Crew!
Looks like Catgut’s really gone to the dogs.
Hear that, Mommy Dearest? It’s that icky-poo puppy and her yucky bird.
I know, but where are they hiding?
Catgut
(meows)
Catgut says they’re under the gunky ground.
Worms and gophers are underground, you furball. Not dogs and birds. Now quit clowning around.
Catgut
(meows)
(writing down on the clipboard) Four more cute little old pups ready for adoption, Cooler.
Let’s just hope they’re ready to meet the evil queen of creepiness. Katrina Stoneheart.
Welcome, doggies. Now, let’s get one thing straight right off the bat. You’ll never escape from my pound! NEVER! (blowing the pups into the cage)
Catgut
(meows then laughs in an evil grin)
And no one can help you, not even Cooler and his icky-poo puppy pals.
And if Cooler’s pack shows up around here, we’ll be waiting with… the Vacuum Vortex.
Cooler and his mongrel mob will be turned into a canine cage! (laughs evilly)
Yes, folks! It dices, it slices, and it’s only 1995! (laughs)
Uh-oh! It’s on to us, crew! Let’s hit the pain!
Why is that bucket of boats chewing up garbage cans?
Blasted contraption must need a tune-up. Take it back to the garage, Brattina!
Yes, sure, Mommy Dearest. Come on, Vacuum.
Sorry, Pal. I guess my invention was a bust.
But Katrina’s invention is back in action.
The Vacuum Vortex is all turned up, Mommy Dearest.
Excellent, Brattina! Now, let’s give it a vile demonstration. Are you ready, Catgut?
Catgut
(meows nervously)
We just set the gunky controls to the cat.
Get out of my face, you coward!
Catgut
(meows)
Catgut
(meows angrily)
Mommy Dearest, you look scary.
But it works, Brattina. It works! Now we can finish our Cooler and his pack of pesky pooches, for good! (laughs evilly)
Be super-duper quiet, Pal. I’ll bet the Vacuum Vortex can hear a pin drop.
All right, who dropped the pin?
Sorry! I guess my diaper drooped. Oh, how embarrassed.
Well, undroop it. Let’s get outta here!
(laughs evilly) Oh, at last! The Vacuum Vortex is about to crush Cooler and his cronies!
Shake a leg, crew! In fact, shake all 4 legs!
Yee-haw! Ride ‘em, cowdog!
Mommy Dearest, it’s that yucky icky-poo, Cooler.
Get him, you reckless hunk of junk! Suck him off!
Hmm. This pony ride needs a minor adjustment. R-A-T spells rat, which stands for Katrina!
Oh! Oh, no! It’s gone berserk! Oh! Oh! Run for it!
Eww! Icky-yucky, stinky smelly cages!
Catgut
(hisses)
Someday, I’ll get you for this, Cooler. Someday!
And someday, Katrina may find the key to unlock a cage, but not someday soon! (laughs)
Don’t cry, puppies. No one’s going to hurt you.
Holly! Get away from those filthy beasts!
But, Auntie Katrina, they’re so frightened!
Frightened? They should be terrified! (laughs evilly) Because my pound is now equipped with… (Copter-Catcher appears up above) …the Copter-Catcher! No dog will ever escape again! (laughs evilly)
(laughs evilly) What d’you say, Catgut? Let’s give ‘em a little demonstration.
Catgut
(meows and laughs evilly)
Whoa! Brattina, you fool! Put me down!
All right, all right. Have a cow, why don’tcha!
Sorry about that, Mommy Dearest.
(angrily) You’ll be more than sorry, young lady! Fly, stay in your room! You’re grounded!
But, Mommy Dearest! (sobbing)
Shh! Be very very quiet. (giggles) We have to make sure Catgut is nowhere to be seen.
Catgut
(meows)
Remember, kids. Always put garbage in its place. (laughs)
Catgut
(meows)
(laughs evilly) The next time Cooler and his mangy mutts show up around here, (laughs again) they’ll be outfoxed by the greatest invention since the paid toilet, the Rover-Roper!
Eww! Creepy! How’s it work, Mommy Dearest? How’s it work?
Just hold on to this stuff doggy toy and see for yourself. The Rover-Roper can hunt down any mutt from 100 yards. Watch.
Oh! Make it stop, Mommy Dearest! Make it stop!
We’ll be back in 2 shakes of a pup’s tail, Cooler.
We’ll take good care of your puparoos til then. See you soon.
Help, Mommy Dearest! Help!
With the Rover-Roper, Cooler and his pack are doomed! (laughs maniacally) What?!
Yap dog is licking me! Doggy drool! Doggy germs!
You won’t get away this time, Cooler!
Catgut
(meows)
I hate that dog. (She looks at Catgut and he begins to fire-breathe at him but he is holding the lid to stop it)
A little further. Yes, yes, a little further. Y… Ah, ah, ah. Hold it right there.
What are those stinky bricks for, Mommy Dearest?
(looking at the security pound on the paper) To build my new maximum security pound. This wall will stop Cooler and his motely mutt cold, like being hit with a ton of bricks.
Oh! Just kill me already, why don’tcha!
Catgut
(meows)
Oh, brother! Get a load of what the bad guys are up to this time.
(singing) I’ve been putting up the brick wall
This time, I will win
(singing) She’s cementing up the brick wall
To keep the yucky doggies in
Can’t you hear our cheers and shouting
(singing) Locking up the mutts we had
(singing) Cooler and screams are shouting
KBKatrina and Brattina
(singing) Cos they finally met them up
(screaming and then he stops running) You know what? I’m scared. (screaming and running again)
Woo! A little game of Catgut and mouse, and it looks like Catgut hates meeces to pieces.
Eww! A mouse! Icky-icky-icky-poo yuck!
Get him off me, Catgut! Get him off!
Sakes alive! That’s no mouse! That’s a little bitty muffy doggy!
Bra-Bra-Bra-Bra-Bra-Brat-t-t-ti-ti-ti-tina! Whoa!
We have to save that cute little old pup!
(Angry with her) Just for this, Brattina: You’ll get no stewed prunes for a week!
There. That should fix any icky-poo mice that come in here. There are enough scary traps to catch a zillion yucky mices, eh, Catgut?
Catgut
(meows)
What? Brattina, what is going on?
“Brattina, what is going on?” I’m trying to catch a mouse, nosy-pants. What’s it look like?
Brattina still thinks Teensy’s a mouse, and she covered the yard with traps.
And here comes the wicked witch of the worst Katrina.
It’s Cooler and those miserable mutts. Brattina! Stop those confounded canines! Don’t just stand there, you ninny! Get them!
No! Mommy Dearest, look out!
Ouch! Ow! Ooh! Ah! Ah! Ow!
Eww! Mommy Dearest, that looks totally painful.
(Angry with her) Not half as painful as the punishment you’ll get for this!
(Off-screen) But, Mommy Dearest!
(in her walkie-talkie) Mommy Dearest, I’m sick of the stinky smelly wall! Come down already, why don’tcha!
Stop whining, Brattina! I want to put one more row of bricks on, and then I’ll be down. (to the audience) Cooler and those crummy canines will never help another mutt escape. (laughs evilly)
Whoa! Looks like Katrina’s been a busy little bad girl.
Come on! Auntie Katrina’s way up there. She’ll never see you leave.
Catgut
(meows)
Mommy Dearest! Where did the horsey come from? Can we keep him, Mommy Dearest? Oh, please! Can we keep him?
Stop talking nonsense! What’s going on down there?
(Off-screen) Holly’s letting Cooler and some dogs and a horsey go out the front gate.
Cooler and some dogs?! Well, stop them, you fool! (noticing the wall has a crack) Oh, no! My wonderful wall!
Looks like Katrina’s plan isn’t all it was cracked up to be. (laughs)
