"Our first act," the announcer calls, "Will be Jimmy and Jilly(1) Watson with Chubster(2) and Prince Fudgiepaws(3) Watson." A little twin boy and girl, about six years old, stand on stage, gently holding a small Golden hamster with a lighter gold belly, and a black, brown and white Guinea pig, respectively.
"Boo! Your act stinks! Get off the stage!" Feltwaddle jeers loudly.
"Mister Feltwaddle," Miss McGilt reprimands him sternly. "You can't judge the act until you've seen it."
A sly smirk crosses the evil pound supervisor's face as he begins to rub his chin. "But those little rodent's act truly will stink when we get done with them..."
"Ready, guys?" Jimmy and Jilly inquire.
"Meep!" Chubster replies. "Uhwiee!" adds Prince Fudgiepaws, upon which the kids gently place their pets on a folding table housing a miniature piano and bugle; Chubster snatches up the bugle and begins to play it, while Prince Fudgiepaws taps out a tune on the piano.
Just then, the two small pets smell something delicious in the air, upon which they look down to see a trail of sunflower seeds leading backstage. Squealing with delight, the hamster and Guinea pig quickly hurry off after the trail, gobbling up each sunflower seed they find. From behind the doorway, Morton and Scarface are watching intently. "That's right, little rats," Morton sneers. "Just a little bit closer..."
As soon as Chubster and Prince Fudgiepaws reach the doorway, Scarface hops in front of them. "Sic 'em, Scarface!" Morton exclaims. The evil cat meows hungrily and pounces at the two small rodents. "Eeee!" The hamster and Guinea pig quickly scurry out of the way and rush through the room with Scarface in hot pursuit.
Suddenly, Scarface smells a delicious scent and glances behind him to see a long trail of sardines; the mean cat licks his lips hungrily. "Oh, please," Morton scoffs. "Do they really expect us to fall for our own lame trick?" He's no sooner said this when he notices Scarface following the trail, gobbling up every sardine. "Well, whaddaya know, I guess we would!"
Lucky, who's hiding behind a nearby trash can, watches intently. "That's right, just a little closer..." As soon as Scarface reaches the end of the trail, Which ends at the edge of the trash can, Lucky slams down the trash can lid. "Looked like it was time to take out the trash." he says with a chuckle.
Back on stage, Fluffy gently returns the two small pets to their owners. "There there, little ones, you're safe now." She gently pets the little fellows on their heads as they then finish their act. Miss McGilt Holds up a score card bearing a number six, the mayor holds up one with a seven, and Feltwaddle holds up one with a zero. "It reeks!"
"Our next act will be Becky O'Bannon and her brother(4) with Waggster and Mittens(4) O'Bannon." The announcer calls, upon which a little girl with brown hair in pigtails and her little brother, who also had brown hair, step up onto the stage, followed closely behind by a small rounded white puppy with black ears and paws and a very waggly tail, wearing a blue t-shirt, and a small brownish-orange kitten with a lighter brown snout, wearing a pink dress and a matching bow in her hair. The pets have the words, "Patch" and "Stripe(5)" scratched out on their respective collars, and their real names written underneath, which causes everyone in the audience to exchange odd looks with each other. These kids ain't odd or somethin', are they? Squirt thinks from behind the stage.
"Boo! Hiss! It's awful!" Feltwaddle jeers, upon which the mayor shoots a disdainful look at him. "Ooh, just kidding."
"Our pets would now like to perform their juggling act for you." Becky states.
"Ready, guys?" her brother inquires.
"Ready!" the puppy and kitten inquire, upon which their owners gently toss them a series of colorful hacky sacks, which they then begin juggling. From backstage, Morton, who's carrying a large armload of hacky sacks, snickers nastily. "Heh heh, when we toss those dopey little pets more of these hacky sacks, they'll trip and fall over!" Scarface responds with a nasty snicker of his own.
Unbeknownst to them, Strudel had just sneaked around behind them and cut a hole in several of the hacky sacks, causing the filling to spill out and scatter all over the floor. As Morton takes a step forward, he goes slipping on the fillings and falls flat on the floor. "WHOOOOAAAOOOAAAOOOAA! OOF!" Scarface then follows suit. "MEOOOOOOWWW! OOF!"
After Waggster and Mittens finish their act, Miss McGilt gives them an eight, the mayor gives them a seven, and Feltwaddle gives them another zero. "Peeyew!"
