Narrator]
There are gajillions of stories...



of mischief and fun,



but to keep things simple,



let's start with just one...



about a mom and two kids...



and a house and a hat...



that, oddly enough,



was worn by a cat.



But soon enough
we will get to all that.



In the valley that stretches
from this hill to that hill,




a city is nestled...



that city is Anville.



- [Kid] Hurry up!
We'll miss the movie!
- Any more tutti-frutti?



I'll check.
Thanks!



[NarratorContinues]
It's a town that's not huge,
but quite big enough...



for buyers and sellers
to sell and buy stuff,



from shoes and shirts...



and elongated ladders...



to sailboats and gibble-grated

berry-juice bladders.



[Horn Honks]



So ourstory begins
at the corner
ofMain and Montroob...



in the spotless
real estate offiice...



run by Hank Humberfloob.



[Woman]
Humberfloob Real Estate. How can
we make yourdreams come true?



[People Chattering]



What do you mean,
you're leaving?



You're a babysitter.
Babysitters don't leave. They sit.



Baby-leavers leave.
I'm sorry. I really
gotta go, Miss Walden.



Well, I need to come home
right away.



All right.
Thank you, Amy.
Sorry.



[Sighs]



Attention, everyone!
It's 9:02.




Staff meeting!
Staff meeting!



[All Gasping, Murmuring]
Look alive, everyone.!



First I'd like to
welcome aboard...



our newest member
of the Humberfloob family,



Jim McFlinnagan!



- Mr. Humberfloob,
I wanted to thank you...
- [All Gasping]



Fired.
I beg your pardon?




Fired.
B-But l...



Fired!



One, two, three,
four, fiive, six, seven,
eight, nine, 10!



As you know, tonight is
our bimonthly"meet and greet" party.



Tonight's host is...
Joan Walden.



This is where people can
meet our real estate agents...



in an informal,
yet hygienic setting.



Mr. Humberfloob,
I have to get home to my kids.



Ah, yes.




Your children.



Joan, let me make this
perfectly clear.



If your house
is as messy as last time,



you're fiired!



[Employees Gasping,
Murmuring]



That's pretty clear,
Mr. Humberfloob.




Don't worry. I promise.



My kids'll be
on their best behavior.



Great.



[Phone Rings]
[Woman]
Humberfloob Real Estate.



How can we make
yourdreams come true?

Please hold.



[Narrator]
Lfyou leave Humberfloob's
and turn left onto Main,



three miles down
you'll fiind Lipplapper Lane,



a pleasant-enough street
in a pleasant-enough way...



where a neighbor greeted neighbor
with a neighborly"Hey.!"



Hey!
Hey!



Here the hedges were hedged,

the weeds were all weeded,



and lawns were mowed daily,



twice daily ifneeded.



And at the end
ofthis street,



in a house like any other,



something magical
would happen...



to a sisterand her brother.



[Barking]




[Barks]
Shh! Nevins!
Stealth mode.



Today's to-do list.



Number one:
Make to-do list.



Number two:
Practice coloring.



Number three:
Research graduate schools.



Number four:

What is he doing?



[Sighs]



[Whines]



[Beeps]



Number 10:
Make tomorrow's to-do list.



Ladies and gentlemen!
[Nevins Barking]



Nevins,
your attention, please.



You are about to witness
the third most spectacular stunt...



ever performed
under this roof!



Do you know how hard it's getting
to tell people that we're related?



Relax.
I'll put everything back.



[Whining]



And now,
for the indoor stair luge!



Indoor stair luge?




I'll have to add this one
to my list.



Go have no fun
somewhere else.



It... is... showtime.!



- [Whimpers]
- [Grunts]



Whoa.!



[Yelling]



- Aah!
- Yeah!



[Groans]



- [Woman] Oh, my word.!
- [Nevins Barking]



Nevins!



Nevins, come back.!



Hey, Mom. What's up?




You are so lucky
you didn't ruin this dress.



Mom, I know
you're angry,



but there's something
you need to know.



This was all Sally's fault.
Oh, really?



And how, exactly,
was it Sally's fault?



Give me a minute.
I'm workin' on it.



Save it, Conrad.



Why today? Why did you
have to pick today
to destroy the house?




You know
what's happening today.



I tried to tell him, Mom.



"Mom's throwing
a very important party," I said.



"All ofher important
clients will be here."



But he went right ahead
and wrecked the house
and let Nevins get away.



Now, again, I hope
you're going to ground him.



Yes, Sally, for a week, but
that's none of your business.



Aweek?
Come on. Two days.



I asked you to do
one thing today, Conrad...




keep the house
clean.



Do you know how frustrating it is
that you're always doing
the exact opposite of what I say?



Knock, knock, knock.



[Growling]
Someone lose a dog?



I found him next door...



in my yard... again.




You are a saint.



And here I thought
you were only dating me
for my good looks.



Lucky us.
Larry Quinn is here.



Hey-a, sport.
Call me Lawrence.
Okay?



You rescued Nevins!
Thanks, Lawrence!



It was my pleasure, Sally.
Anything for my little princess.




Oh, I don't wanna be a princess.



In a constitutional monarchy
parliament has all the real power.



I see.
Okay, that's great.



Uh, look, pal, be a sport.



Why don't you go
tidy up the living room.
Okay...dude?



I don't have to listen to you, Larry.



Conrad,
do what Lawrence says.




Have you given some thought
about the Wilhelm Academy?



You mean the Colonel Wilhelm
Military Academy forTroubled Youth?



That's the one, Joan.



I'm not sure
it's right for Conrad.



Oh, Joan, Joan.



Joan, Joan, Joan.



I have so much respect
foryou, Joan.




Single mother, careerwoman,
raising two children on your own,




and still fiinding time
to be the best darned
real estate agent in town.



I know how hard it is, Joan.



It is hard.
Oh... I know.



And I know
how hard you're trying.



This is a once-in-a-lifetime
proposition,
and you must act now.



The Colonel Wilhelm
Military Academy
forTroubled Youth...



is what we call in the sales game
a win-win scenario.




A top-flight military school,
and it's only... eight hours away.



[Phone Rings]
Oh, the phone.



[Phone Rings]



I heard what you said.



I'm not going to military school, Larry.



Look, buddy,




I know I'm not your dad...



and this is probably
really strange foryou...



your neighbor's
dating your mom.



But here's the thing, son.
Come here.



I don't like you either.



But I'm gonna
marry your mom.



And if it was up to me,
you'd be at military school today.



I'm not going
to military school.
Ohh!



I think you're gonna love it.




It's just like summer camp,



except with brutal forced marches...



and soul-crushing discipline.



And one more thing...
It's Lawrence,
you snot-nosed son of a...



wonderful woman
who I'm absolutely crazy about!
[Grunting] Oww!



Gosh, I love children!



Oh, Joan,
I didn't see you there.



Would you be a doll
and help me bring up chairs
from the basement?




Nothing would give me
more pleasure, Joan,
but I do have to run.



I have a very important
sales conference downtown.



Oh. Okay.



- Well, I'll see you at the party tonight.
- Sure.



Mom, that guy's a total phony.
You can't let Larry...



It's Lawrence, Conrad.
[Doorbell Rings]



Kate's Catering.
I'm here to do your party tonight.




Oh, hi.
Where's Kate?



I'm Kate.
Oh. Okay.



Right this way, Kate.



Mom, you've gotta
listen to me...
[Phone Ringing]



Quiet!
Two weeks ago
you said you would...



[Joan Screams]
I "specialed" it.
See?



Quiet!
Nevins!




[Ringing Continues]
I said quiet!



[Ringing]



Joan Walden Real Estate.
Be it ever so humble,
there's no place likeJoan.



This is Mr. Humberfloob.



- Oh, hi, Mr. Humberfloob.
- Joan, I need you to come back to the offiice.



- Today?
- Yes, Joan.



- No problem?
- No problem at all.




Great!



- [Gasps]
- What's going on, Mommy?



Mommy has to go
back to the offiice.



Oh! I hope Mrs. Kwan
can babysit.



- Not Mrs. Kwan!
- [Doorbell Rings]



Oh!
Hi, Mrs. Kwan.



Hi.
I'm running late.




Thanks for babysitting
on such short notice.
Mmm, yeah.



Okay, Mrs. Kwan.



Oh-oh-oh!



I'll be back
in a couple ofhours.
Hi.



Conrad's grounded,
so no video games.



Sally?
Last chance.



If you wanna make cupcakes,
I can take you to
your friend Ginny's house.



- [Growling]
- Ginny's not my friend anymore.



Last time we made cupcakes
she wanted to be the head chef.



I'm the head chef.




What about Denise, then?



She talked back to me,
so I ordered her
not to speak to me anymore.



- And you don't like bossy?
- I won't tolerate it.



Right.



Well, if you're both staying,
remember the rules.



Conrad: No playing ball
in the house, no fiighting,



no answering the phone,
"City morgue."



Mommy,
can't I have some rules?




No chewing tobacco.



Thanks, Mom.
You have my word.



And absolutely no one
sets foot in the living room, or else.



Orelse what?
You're gonna do what Larry said
and send me to military school?



Maybe if you'd just behave,
I wouldn't have to consider military school.



I wish I could trust you.




I wish I had a different mom.



Well, sometimes
I wish the same thing.



[DoorOpens]



[DoorSlams]



Mmm.



Good luck with your meeting.




[Car DoorCloses]



[Grunting]



Children, would you like
to watch television with me?



- We don't have to tell your mother.
- [TV: Channel Changing]




- [Speaking Chinese]
- [Yelling]



[Together]
Taiwanese parliament.
[TV: Yelling, Blows Landing]



You tell them, Kwi-Chang!
No more big government!
[TV: Karate Yells]



Rip his heart out.!



[TV: Blows Landing,

Yelling Continue]



[Snoring]



[Whimpers]



Hit me!
[Sighs]



[Narrator]
So they slumped in theirchairs,



too glum to complain,



and to make matters worse,
it started to rain.



[Butterfly Yelps]



They sat in the house...



on that cold, cold, wet day...



with no fun to have...



and no games to play.



They couldjust
stare out the window...



or perhaps get a nap in,



and hope that something,



anything might happen.



Quit bothering
the fiish.



I know.
Quit bothering the fiish.



Spit hand!
Oh, gross!




Get that away from me!
Get it away!



[Loud Bump]
[Narrator]
Then something went bump.



- What was that?
- [Barks]



How that bump
made themjump.
[Nevins Continues Barking]



[Loud Bumping Continues]
I think it came
from the closet.



[Loud Crash]



[Grunts]



Conrad?



Conrad.



Come on, Conrad.




[Screams]



[Laughing]



You shouldn't scare people.



You should've seen
the look on your face.
It was like you saw a monster...



A monster? Where?



That could've gone better.
[Wheezing Laugh]



[Both Screaming]



[Sally]

What was that?
[Conrad] I don't know.



Looked like
a humongous cat.



"Humongous"?



I prefer the term "big-boned" or"jolly."
Now, what are we hiding from?



[Chortling]




[Both Screaming]



Thatwas a giant cat.



But that's impossible,
isn't it?



It's entirely
impossible.



You know,
I like this hiding place
a lot better.



They'll never

fiind us here.



Scream and run.



[Both Screaming]
And there they go.



Who are you?



Who? Me?



Why, I'm the Cat in the Hat.
There's no doubt about that.



I'm a "super-fun-diferous" feline...



who's here to make sure
that you're...



Meeline? Key lime?




Turpentine?



I got nothin'.



I'm not so good with the rhyming.
Not really, no.



Look, I'm a cat
that can talk.



That should be enough
foryou people!
[Muttering]



I can talk.!
I'm a cat.! Yes.!
[Chortling]



Where did you come from?



Hmm, how do I put this?



When a mommy cat and a daddy cat
love each othervery much,



they decide that...



Oh, no, no, no, no.
Where did you come from?



My place!
Where do you think?
[Snickering]




No, how did you get here?



I drove!



Look, I've been here two whole minutes,
and no one has offered me a drink.



Harumph!



- Sorry, Mr. Cat.
Would you like some milk?
- Milk? Ecch! No!



Lactose intolerant.
Gums up the works. Oy.



You'll thank me later.




[Wheezing, Chortling]



- [Singer Laughing]
Wipeout.!
- Hello!



@¤@¤[SurfRock]
Surf s up!
[Chuckles] Yeah!



Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Yee-hee-hee!



Nice spread you got here.



Homina-homina-homina-homina!




Who is this?



Ohh!



That's my mom.



Awkward, yeah.



Yes, this place will do
quite nicely, actually. Yeah.



Although those drapes
are a train wreck.



[Chortling]



[Snoring]

And this is the lumpiest couch
I ever sat on.



Who is this dreadfully
uncomfortable woman?



Get offher.
That's our babysitter.



What the... Babysitter?



You don't need one of those,
do ya?



Let me get this straight.



You pay this woman...



to sit on babies?



That's disgusting!



I'd do it for nothing!
[Laughing Loudly]



Hmm!



Now, let's see
what the old "phunometer"
has to say.



- "Phunometer"?
- Yeah. It measures
how fun you are.



[Chortling]




Hi.



[Bell Dings]
Huh?



Ohh.



Ah. Control freak.
Yeah.



Now you.



[Whispers]
Hi. How are ya?



- [Bell Dings]
- Whoa!




[Whimpering]



Oh.



Tap it.



Listen, kid,
you can tap it with a hammer,



it ain't gonna change.



Just as I suspected.



You guys are both out of whack.
You're a control freak,
and you're a rule-breaker.



That'll be $700.
Who's your insurance carrier?




- So, what do we do?
- Well, there are two treatments
I'd recommend.



One is a series of painful shots
injected into your abdomen and kneecap.



And the other...



involves a musical number!



@¤@¤[Orchestra:Fanfare]
@ Me-Me-Me-Meow @



How many shots?



[Wheezing]
"How many shots?"
Aren't you precious?

Remember? The fiish?



Came home in a Baggie,
loved me for two weeks, and then nothing!



- The fiish is talking!
- Well, sure, he can talk.



But is he saying anything?
No, not really. No.



[Fish]
Hey, Socks, can it.!




This cat should not be here.
He should not be about.



He should not be here
when your mother is out.



Come on, kids!
You gonna listen to him?
He drinks where he pees!



@¤@¤[Salsa]

@"U" in the middle @@



[Gulps]



[Panting, Chuckling]



- Bravo, Cat.
- Huh?



These children are smart enough
not to fall foryour MTV-style flash...



at the expense of content
and moral values.



That was wicked cool!
Do it again!




I'd love to, but Shamu is right...
I really should be going.



- No, don't go!
- No, I should go.



I should let you and the fiish
have all your fun conjugating verbs,



cleaning your room,
doing long division.



No, you have to stay!



All right, I'll stay.
Oh, yeah!
[Conrad] Yeah.!



But if I'm gonna stay,
there's something I wanna show you.




Something magical...



and full of wonder.



- It's called a contract.
- You want us to sign this?



- Just a formality, really. Yeah.
- Who are they?



Magical time-traveling elves.



[Chortling]
Yeah. Magic.



Okay, they're my lawyers.



Liability issues, litigious society,
frivolous lawsuits.



You understand.




Basically, this contract guarantees
you can have all the fun you want...



and nothing bad's
ever gonna happen.



- All the fun we want?
- Uh-yeah!



- Nothing bad will happen?
- Uh-no!



Come on, Sal,
for once in your life
try something spontaneous.



It goes against
my better instincts, but...



fiine.



Beautiful.
Initial here.




And here. And here.



Not here!



[Wheezes]



Turn it over.



This is nothing.

Hey, check out this room!
[Laughing]



What now?



Mom says we're not
allowed in the living room
today, or else.




She's worried we'll mess up the couches
byjumpin'on 'em orsomethin;



And she's right.
You can't jump on these.



Not like this.
They need some adjustment.
Yee-haw!



[Chuckling]

[Spits] Yeah.
[Chuckles]




Just doin' my job.

I could use a little company.




What about Mom's party?



What about it?
We signed the contract.



Wha-hoo!
[Laughing] Yeah!



One cushion left,
Sally.



She'll never do it.
She doesn't know
how to have fun.



Fun? Sally,
you're betterthan fun.
Fun is beneath you.



Remember
what your mother told you...



No one sets foot
in the living room...
[Conrad Shouting]



You know what?
Let's just watch some flashbacks.



[Voice Slowed Down]
Absolutely no one sets foot
in the living room, or else.



You're fiired... fiired... fiired...

Yippee!
Oh, yeah!



This is amazing!

Yeah, but without
those tortured animals...



or drunken clowns
that have hepatitis.



See, kids, I told you
we could have fun!



[Laughing Continues]
[Conrad] The best thing is,
no one will ever...



know.



Judas Priest!
I can't believe what I'm seeing!



Oh, Mr. Quinn,
I was just telling Conrad
to get off the couch.



Bad, Conrad!
Bad!



Sally,



baby, angel, princess,



I'm gonna let you in

Nobody likes a suck-up!




[Quinn Laughing]



Where's the cat?
I don't know.

See, kids, I told you.
Stick with me, it'll all work out.



[Sneezes]
Oh, no! Ohh!
[Chortling]



Little-known fact...
cats always land on their tushy.



- I thought they always
landed on their feet.
- Oh, sure, now you tell me.




Harumph!

making that sound?



Huh?



Of course. That means
they're almost done, Conrack.



- Conrad.
- That's what I said, Condor.



- Cat!
- Now, that's my name!




[Oven Whirring, Rumbling]



[Timer Bell Dings]
Yep!



They're done!



Oh, man!
There's nothing
to worry about.



I'm sure
they still taste fiine.



Yecch!
They're horrible!




Who wants some?
Come on, come on!
[Chortling]



Oh... my... cod.



Ohh! Aah!



Cat, you need to
clean this mess up pronto.



We have a contract.
All right, I'll try.



You don't try. You do.



Yes, ma'am.
Right away, ma'am.



[Coughs]
I'll be right back.



Whoa!

[Crash]



[Chortling]



[Snoring]
Hi.
How are ya?



Okay.
[Chortling]



Look. I'm a girl.



[Giggling, Purring]



Stop! That's...



[Together]
Mom's dress!




[Gasps]
This fiilthy thing?



She was gonna wear that tonight,
and you ruined it.



Honey, it was ruined
when she bought it.



Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Mm-hmm.



I told you
all this would happen.!



- But no one listens to a fiish!
- Oy.




A dog goes "woof-woof"
and everybody knows that
little Timmy's trapped undera log.



But a fiish speaks
in plain English...



All right, everyone,
let's just take a deep breath
and calm down.



[Inhaling, Exhaling]




You know who's gonna solve it?
Me. I am.



I will personally
take care of everything.



And I know
just the guys to do it.



[Wheezing]



[Chortling]



In this box are two Things.
I will show them to you.




Two Things, and I call them
Thing One and Thing Two.



These Things will not bite you.
They want to have fun.



So without further ado,



meet Thing Two
and Thing One!



[Whooping, Babbling]



@Ta-da @



Oh, yeah!
[Chortles]




Thing One, Conrad, Sally.
Conrad, Sally, Thing One.



Thing Two, Conrad, Sally.
Conrad, Sally, Thing Two.



Thing One, Thing Two.
Thing Two, Thing One.
Conrad, Sally. Sally, Conrad.



I am the Cat.
Don't belittle me.



Ah, yes, of course.



Thing Two would like to
clarify that just because
he wears the number two...




does not imply in any way
that he's inferior to Thing One.



And all of the above.



He says you may feel free
to call him Thing "A," if you like.



He will also accept SuperThing,
Thing King, Kid Dynamite,



Chocolate Thun-Da...
or Ben.
[Chuckles] Ben!



[Thing OneJabbering]



Thing One says
he's Thing One for a reason,



and some people
should just get used to it.




It's a Thing thing.
You wouldn't understand.



[ThingsJabbering,
Arguing]
Okay, enough!



You are quickly turning into
one of my least favorite Things.



Listen, Convex,
you probably don't
wanna do that.



Why not?
It's just a crate.



This isn't just any old crate.



It's the Trans-dimensional
Transportolator.



It's kinda like a doorway
which leads from this world
to my world.




But it says,
"Made in the Philippines."



Yes, but not this Philippines.



Look, now,
I'm not usually a rules guy,
but this is a biggie.



No opening the crate.




No lookee, no touchee.
Got it?



[Thing]
Mekka-dekka we should
settle ourdifferences.



[Jabbering]



[Cat]
Things, front and center.!



Cool.



All right, Things,
I'm not paying you to
stand around and look pretty.



Here's Mom's dress.

Hey! Klondike!



Do you have any idea
what happened to the lock
on this crate?



- It's on Nevins's collar.
- Nevins?



[Sally]
Nevins? Nevins.!




Put the dog down!
I said, put the dog down!



Why won't they
listen to me?



Oh. I don't know if this helps,
but the Things always do
the opposite of what you say.



Why do they always
do the opposite?
That's so annoying!



Remind you of anyone,
Conrad?



Zinga!

Zinga! Zinga!

[Crab Lock Chuckles]

Well, this is just great, Conrad.



The whole house is destroyed,
the party is ruined,
and now Nevins is gone.



Sally, Kojak,



that's nothing compared
to what's gonna happen
if we don't lock this crate.



Take a look.
It's already leaking.



[Grunting]



- It won't stay shut.
- Not without the lock.



Look, if we don't get that lock off of Nevins
and put it back on this crate,




we're gonna be staring down
the business end
of the mother of all messes.



[Grunting]
We've gotta go out
and fiind Nevins.



[Grunts]
Impossible! Sally!



There's only four hours
till the party.



The Fish is right.
We should call Mom
and tell herwhat happened.



Look at this house!
There's no way we could
explain this to Mom.




We gotta get Nevins back
and lock the crate!



We're staying and calling Mom.



We're going and getting the dog.

There is a third option.



@¤@¤[Organ:Dramatic]
There is?



Yes. It involves...



murder!

- That's your option?
- No.



But you guys both had options.
I just wanted to have one too.



[Chuckling]

Now, wejust need
a heavy, inanimate object

Okay, section eight,
article 93, subparagraph 834.



Right by the chili stain.
[Chuckles]



It reads, "If Conrad, a.k.a. Concrete,
should open the crate...



"and we know he will...
the contract shall be null and void.




"However,



if Sally and Conrad
should learn from their mistakes,
the contract shall be reinstated."



I think you two have satisfiied
the legal burden oflearning.



[Both]
Yeah!



So there's just one last game to play.
It's called "Clean Up The House."



Kids, meet the Dynamic Industrial
Renovating Tractormajigger.

Okay, we had some good times.



We cleaned up the house.



We even managed to work in
an up-tempo pop tune for the sound track.



That's important.



I guess there's just one
last thing to check.




[Gurgling]
Huh?



[Dings]



[Dings]



Looks like everything's
in balance,



but you're still smoking
way too many cigars.



- And you... lay offthe sauce.!
- [Chuckles]



Cat,



this day has been...
amazing.




Thank you, Cat.



For everything.



Conrad?



Sally?



Adieu.



- [Sally]
Cat.!
- Cat!




- Huh?
- Wait, Cat.
- Don't go!



[Chuckles]



Uh-oh!



[Chortling]



All right, kids.
This place better not be a mess.



I'm... home?



Hi, Mom.
Hi, Mom.




Miss Walden, home so soon?
The children were angels.



- Thanks, Mrs. Kwan.
- Hello, Joan.



[Gasps]
Lawrence, what happened to you?



They... happened to me.



Your demonic children.



[Panting]
They destroyed your house.!



Uh...



[Quinn]
The house was alive.
The wall was made ofpaper.



I fell off the cliff.
And the giant cat...



The giant cat!



[Whispers]
Tell her.




Larry, Larry.



You look terrible,



and my mom
thinks you're insane.



This is what we in sales
call "a win-win scenario."



Joan, you are passing up
the opportunity of a lifetime.



You know what kind ofkid
your boy is.



I mean, who are you
going to believe?



You're right. I do know
what kind ofkid Conrad is.




He can be irresponsible.



Yes!
He makes bad choices.



Sometimes he makes me
want to tear my hair out.
Yes! Yes! Yes!



But he's a good kid,
and I believe in him.



Now, I'd like you
to leave.



Wha... Joan. Joan.



Joan. Joan.



Oh, Joan, Joan, Joan!
[Crying]



[Sneezes]




[Groaning]



- Will you marry me, Joan?
- [Groans]



Oh, Joan, Joan,
Joan, Joan.



[Sobbing]



[Squeals]
Yes!
Yeah!



[Both Laughing]
[Conrad]

Yeah.!



Oh, that's nice.
[Snoring]



[People Chattering]



Mr. Humberfloob?
Whoa-ho-ho!



Almost got me again.
Enjoy the party.



Mr. Humberfloob.
Joan, the party's a hit
and the house is immaculate.




Congratulations.



[Woman]
Miss Walden. Uh, Miss Walden.



Chicka-ow, chicka-ow,
chica-yee-haw!
Hi, Mom!



Honey, yourcupcakes
are a huge hit.
What did you put in them?



Mom, you can make cupcakes
out of anything.



Are you telling me
you can make cupcakes
out ofanything?



- Anything.
- Anything?



So what did you kids
do today, huh?



[Narrator]

Well, what would you do
ifyour motherasked you?



The family was whole,
all thanks to the Cat,



who was dashing and charming,
no doubt about that.



He was witty and cultured...



and, well, very endearing...



and tremendously attractive,



but in a sort of real way.



You know, kind of
an approachable way that I think
you don't see these days...




[Normal Voice]
Oh! Hello! I was just, uh...



I really should be going.
[Chuckles]



How'd they get so smart?



[Whooping]
[Chortling]



[All Laughing]
Oh, yeah!



Whoo!



[Chortling]



Come on, Things!
Let's go!



What's on my schedule
for tomorrow?




What do you say
we go on vacation?
[Chortling]



How 'bout Hawaii?
I like Hawaii.



I should warn you,
there are certain places that
don't allow certain Things.



[Chuckling]
Oh, Things are complicated.
