Early morning in the city of Vienna, where it wasn't that noisy and in fact it was peaceful for such a busy place. There was also the building of JoWood Studio. It was almost empty, except that in the main office was the editor Kelsie doing one of her favourite hobbies - sketching. She was now sketching cats. Once she noticed the door opening, she quickly hid the paper into her case. A manager called Maurice Paek entered the room.

"Kelsie? You're here early again?" Maurice asked slightly surprised.

"Good morning." Kelsie greeted.

"Good morning. Well?" he greeted back while expecting an answer to his question.

"Well, sometimes Joe comes early as well and then we consult some things about our show..." she explained.

"Yeah, yeah. I congratulate you for the award." he smiled slightly while he sounded... perhaps somewhat insincere.

"Thank you."

"I personally think you can be a good enjoyable actress." the manager added.

Kelsie felt confused and sort of awkward after hearing that from him. Fortunately enough, director Joe entered the office and he was surprised to see the manager.

"Mr. Paek! What are you doing here?" asked Joe while getting a handshake from him.

"I came to congratulate you for the award." he replied.

"I appreciate it."

"And when I can see that... Woodrow... The short host?" Maurice asked while trying to remember Woody, especially since he had never met him in person.

"He doesn't come here that often." the director responded.

"I see... Then I wish you good luck in the further episodes." Maurice said to him.

Joe then thanked him. Afterwards, the manager Maurice left the office leaving both Joe and Kelsie alone. The editor was even more suspicious towards the manager so now it was a good time to speak from her mind:

"I think Mr. Paek doesn't see Woody as a good host. He doesn't know his name and even told me that I can become an actress."

"... As long as he keeps it to himself, I'm okay with it." the director only shrugged.

Joe knew basically much more about the manager than her, while Kelsie was on Woody's side.

"I apologize for the rudeness, but I think he's a coward for not saying his opinion out loud. I even think he might plan something nasty." she remarked firmly.

"He would do it now, we wouldn't be here. Besides, he gets something for our cooperation too. So he has got a reason to work with us." he stated.

They both stopped the conversation for a moment, mostly to notice the weather outside - it was raining quite heavily.

"Well, look at that rain." the director pointed out.

"Pretty terrible if you ask me." said the editor.

Joe hid the paper he was carrying in one of the desks, presumably scripts and other projects.

"We can't work with a weather like that." Kelsie uttered with a disappointed look on her face.

"And why not?" he asked.

"The footage will look awful with that rain." she answered.

"It won't be even that visible as the focused action in the house. It will be all okay." Joe assured her about that.

"Besides, what can that fat bulldog do in a day like this" she questioned rhetorically "Sit on the sofa and watch TV."

"You never know. Of course Woody will come up with some unique ways of pranking him. We both know he's good at it." he explained with a smile, and she agreed about that.

Again, there was a pause. Joe seemed to have found something interesting, so he approached Kelsie and pulled out her sketches that she hid.

"...Cats?" he asked somewhat confused.

Kelsie tried her hardest not to smile.

"Looks good. Almost professional." the director commented on them.

"Thanks." she ended up grinning at the compliment.

"Why didn't you go for comic illustrator?" he was curious.

"...I tried. However they required drawing women... with revealed basketballs... and I'm not interested in that." the editor explained while feeling somewhat disgusted at the thought.

"Oh... They do that?" surprised Joe asked.

"They think they can copy Japanese manga. Trust me, it's almost pointless reading most of them. They pretty much have no story!" she remarked.

"I have doubts it will ever catch on here. Later they will beg for your realistic cats." he said.

"They've made a mistake. I'm happy here."

Meanwhile the neighbourhood Blue Highway was empty on the outside. Rain fell in crazy chaotic drops, the gusting wind carrying them in wild vortices one moment and in diagonal sheets immediately after. Those drops were bigger than prairie hailstones and coming down just as hard. Woody was in his own home watching the raindrops through a window. He was thinking to himself:

'Well, I'm even more popular than before since I got the award. The audience now definitely know what a nasty pig Rottweiler is. With that said... I wonder what my parents think about this. Especially mother... Sure, she wanted me to become a teacher. But maybe a prankster wasn't a bad choice after all. I'm pretty sure she is partially proud of me.'

Then he decided to tidy up his house. He got nothing else to do. Earlier that day he saw Shelly painting something inside. He didn't want to bother her, after all she might be fully concentrated. From time to time he peeked into his neighbour's house through one of the windows. The fatso was in different room each time he looked, so it was hard to think of some pranks. Maybe already in the house there might come some ideas.

Finally it was time when Joe's crew arrived at Woody's house. Even if they came by the van, all of them were completely wet.

"Hello there." greeted Joe "How are you doing? Ready for the pranking?"

Woody answered:

"Yes, I am. Although it is quite rainy outside."

"No need to worry. We still can shoot the episode."

While others were taking off their jackets, Markus bursted out of rage once he realized something.

"Goddammit, my cigarettes are all wet!"

"We can let them dry on the radiator." said Nick who tried to sound humorous despite being scared of Markus' anger.

He only replied:

"That's pointless. They will taste like-"

"Eeh, calm down..." suddenly interrupted Kelsie. "No need for harsh words."

Markus then stayed silent still with furious expression.

"Anyway," continued Joe "our manager came to congratulate us including you. I told him that you don't visit our office that often, but I still felt like to tell you about this."

"Really? That's nice of him." said Woody having no idea who the manager really was.

Then one of the twins made some movements with right hand with pleased expression looking directly at Woody and Joe.

"What did he say?" asked curious Woody which to Joe explained:

"Thomas mentioned special video on our website that includes best scenes from the show. Most of them show the Rottweiler dog falling for your traps, but there are few scenes where you say some funny lines."

"Let me guess, it gets a lot of views, too." said the young prankster.

"It got shared on different sites as well!" was a surprise heard from Joe. After everyone got prepared he then proceeded with:

"Make sure you don't leave any traces when entering the house."

Woody replied with:

"I'll bring my small folding umbrella so I don't get wet."

And so it was just like that. Determined to make Rottweiler's day a nightmare he hurriedly but as quietly as possible went to the horrible house.
