"Ok! Incase you all don't know who you are, this is the casting!" giggled Etcetera as she held up a sheet of paper for the cast to see.

"Uh, Etcetera?"
"Yes Coricopat?"
"We're cats-"
"Yes I know that," interrupted Etcetera, tired of being reminded of that obvious fact. "And?"
"We don't drive cars."
"So?"
"How am I supposed to be a motorist if we don't drive cars?"
"Yea, and how is Alonzo supposed to pick me up after my car problems if we don't drive?" asked Demeter.
Etcetera stuttered for a moment before Electra whispered something in her ear. Etcetera nodded in agreement to what Electra said.
"Ok, here's what we're going to do…" the kitten said as she pulled out her copy of the script of got a pencil out. "We're going to say that Miss Scarlet was walking to the mansion, but she tripped, and twisted her ankle. Yeah… and then Alonzo comes along and helps her and yadda yadda yadda… and then, when the motorist comes along, we'll just say that he was walking, and because of the storm, he won't be home tonight, so he came to the mansion to use the telephone to call home. And yes I do know that we are cats and we don't use phones, but come on. Use your imagination."
The cast members looked at one another, slightly surprised at Etcetera's agitation.
"One other thing…" was all Munkustrap could get out before Demeter clamped her paw over his mouth.
"Toms need to learn when to shutup," she said to him.
"Sorry!" came the muffled reply.
