"The script"

BC: Bear Cat
MK: Momma Kat

Daily conversation - "The script":

BC: MAKEUP! Makeup on the set!
MK: There is no set, Bear. And makeup? No one can see us!
BC: You're right. There's no help for you. But I need some touchups. Please hold.
{Lick, lick, licked-y lick}

MK: Okay, are you ready, Bear?
BC: READ THE SCRIPT!!! You don't ask if the interviewee is ready ON CAMERA!
MK: We're NOT on camera! Remember? You didn't want video! This is a ...
BC: JUST READ THE SCRIPT! 
MK: You never said we're starting!
BC: And don't say anything NOT on the script!
MK: {sigh} We're here with Bear Cat Kat ... the tough, handsome, {Pause as Momma tries to not laugh} illustrious {Momma starts snickering} ...
BC: I'm glad to be here! Err ... perhaps you need a second to compose yourself OFF CAMERA?
MK: {laughing} We're not ON camera!
BC: OFF THE RECORD! You're RUINING my interview! All you have to do is read the script OUT LOUD!
{Pause}
BC: For those of you just tuning in, I'm Bear Cat Kat, the tough, handsome, no nonsense, illustrious and revered feline blogger renowned the world over!
{Momma laughs out loud}
BC: MONKEYS! Monkeys have invaded the studio! That sound you hear is crazy monkeys! Give them some doughnuts! Give them some doughnuts! Call my lawyer! The police? RATS! WHERE ARE MY PEOPLE!??!? I need a bazooka! Or a skunk! Or a skunk bazooka!

MK: Okay, okay, Bear ...
BC: {AHEM} You may call me Mr. Kat.
{Silence}
BC: Mom ... err ... the interviewer may ask her first question.
MK: Is there ...
BC: But before you do ... I must say it's a privilege to have me on your program. I never listen to you, but you are much esteemed for having a character of my catheter.
{Silence}
BC: {AHEM}.
MK: Caliber?
BC: THAT'S NOT ON THE SCRIPT!
MK: NO! A character of your CALIBER!
BC: That's what I said! See! It's written right ... RATS! I can't read my own paw-writing!
{Pause}
BC: And baaaaaaaack to you!
MK: You went off script ... now do I still ask the first question as written?
BC: READ THE SCRIPT! Sheesh! I'd have better luck with a monkey interviewing me. Can monkeys read? 
MK: Okay. Is there a process you go through in your blogging duties?
BC: I'm a cat! It's pretty self explanatory!
MK: Ummm .... Bear?
BC: MR. KAT!
MK: What's the point of an interview if you answer a question with, "It's pretty self explanatory!"
BC: The important people will understand.
MK: Can you be more specific for us dummies?
BC: THE SCRIPT! I swear. I give you ONE JOB. ONE. JOB. I look cute. I sleep. I eat. I poop. I sleep. I eat. Instant inspiration!
MK: So you don't actually DO anything?
BC: ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING? I look cute. I sleep. I eat. I poop. I sleep. I eat. 
{Pause}
BC: {whispering} Ask the next question, Momma!
MK: If you could meet a famous person, who would you choose?
BC: You mean a famous CAT? That's easy ...
MK: Nope. My copy definitely says PERSON.
BC: I'm sorry, WHO WROTE THE INTERVIEW?!?! You don't question the set questions and answers I give you!
MK: Okay. If you could meet a famous CAT, who would you choose?
{Silence}
{Lick, lick, licked-y lick}

MK: Oh for the love of ... you don't groom yourself in the middle of the interview!
BC: I must be presentable to my public.
MK: We're only publishing the transcript. NO video.
BC: Well, I know if I'm presentable or not. It doesn't matter if anyone else can see me. You might think more about that if you ever want a man to stick around!
{Lick, lick, licked-y lick}

MK: Famous cat?
BC: I know I am.
MK:{sigh} NO. What famous cat would you choose to meet?
BC: ME!
MK: But ...
BC: NEXT question!
MK: What is your position on biting versus clawing?
BC: They both have a vital role in the management of humans.
MK: So what projects do you have in the works that our readers might see in the coming months?
BC: I have a 2:03pm nap. I usually poop around 6pm. Grab a nibble or two before hitting the hay until 3:17am when I have crazy pants du ... WAIT A ... I DIDN'T WRITE CRAZY PANTS ON HERE! THAT'S IN YOUR HANDWRITING!
MK: Do you have any things you destroy before you work on a post?
BC: Why, yes, I always ... WAIT A MINUTE! THAT WASN'T in the script! You were supposed to ask if I have photo sessions before I work on a post! I KNEW I should've gotten mousie to do this interview!
MK: How can a mousie do an interview without ears, Bear?

BC: MR. KAT! Better than a moron without a brai ... wait a ... YOU have a ... no, wait. You don't. Never mind.
MK: Because anyone WITH a brain would refuse to read your ridiculous interview!
BC: SO YOU ADMIT YOU DON'T HAVE A BRAIN!
MK: No. I'm just intimately familiar with the clawing vs. biting debate.








BC: ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNND we're off to commercial!
{Pause}
BC: We need to have a little chat, Momma. Come to my office. NO! You sit on the floor.

MK: Aren't we "chatting" in the "interview?"
BC: You keep going OFF SCRIPT! If this were real, the talent would walk out because you deviated from the set script!
MK: If this were "real," there'd be talent!
BC: {sigh} You're right. I should've known to hire a professional interviewer!
{Pause}
BC: And we're BACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCK!
{Pause}
BC: {AHEM!} {whispering} NUMBER SEVEN!
MK: I hear you have an exciting ... err ... BEAR! I can't read ...
BC: THE SCRIPT!
MK: I hear you have an exciting ... castration? Conflagration?
BC: CONFLATION!!! Wait ... no ... RATS! ... COLLABORATION! {AHEM!}
MK: I hear you have an exciting COLLABORATION in the works. Would you like to talk about it?
BC: No.
MK: Bear, if you don't want to talk about it, DON'T PUT IT IN THE INTERVIEW!
BC: I want to seem mysterious!
MK: YOU'RE A CAT! That goes without saying!
BC: But THEY don't know I'm a cat!
MK: "Bear Cat Kat?" "I'm a cat! It's pretty self explanatory?"
BC: Oh yeah. I forgot that part.
MK: So you have a new collaboration?
BC: Who wants to know?
MK: Off the record.
BC: I was referring to my partnership with Super Bear!




MK: Partnership?

BC: He's providing me "material." 
MK: Ah. Is that what I found in the hall earlier?
BC: RATS!
MK: And then in the bathroom?

BC: You've reached Bear Cat Kat ... I'm ON THE AIR ... don't leave a message and ask the next question.
{Silence}
BC: Not again ... BEEP!
{Pause}
BC: Proceed.
MK: {sigh} What's one thing your adoring fans should know about you?
BC: I am MORE handsome in per ... err ... CATson. Yeah, I get that ALL. THE. TIME! OH! AND I am much tougher and more brutal than I appear on my blog. And my Momma has no life. If you knew her, you'd understand why no man wants to ....
MK: BEAR! You wrote "ONE thing!" That's three and the last isn't about you at all!
BC: Well, I have to deal with you! Next question.
MK: Who is your inspiration?
BC: Easy! Me.
MK: Oh, for the love.
BC: And seeing what little life and usefulness my Momma has. I have to take care of her. It's a hard job! Did I mention that NO MAN ...




MK: WHAT?!?
{Pause}
MK: {back to the script} That's very nice of you, Mr. Kat. You are truly an {cough} inspiration to cats with less than ideal ... Bear!
BC: You were going to say, "less than ideal humans," right?
MK: I knew it was a mistake to go along with this and NOT read everything first.
BC: You don't trust me! I will accept one more question.
MK: {sigh} What is your one hope for the future, Mr. Kat?
BC: Excellent question!
MK: I'm SO surprised. 
{Silence}
MK: Are you going to answer the question?
BC: What question?
MK: {sigh} What is your one hope for the future, Mr. Kat?
BC: Erm ...
MK: {reading from the script} Perhaps, tasty whole chickens?
BC: I forgot to write my answer on my copy!
MK: Then just answer the question in real time! My copy says, "tasty whole chickens." And "silent thumbs."
BC: Eh. Those are as good as any. Time for my close up!
MK: Bear ...
BC: Get the camera!
MK: Oh for the ...
BC: Come closer! Closer!
{Pause}
BC: Too close!

BC: Oh, NEVER MIND!
{Silence}
BC: {AHEM!}.
MK: This is insert cool name of interviewer here, signing off. 
BC: RATS! 
MK: You didn't proof read all of this before we started?
BC: Why would I proof read? Proof reading is for people who make no sense the first time.
MK: Uh huh.
BC: You've reached Bear Cat Kat ... don't leave a message because I HATE YOU!
{Silence}
BC: RATS! BEEP!

  3. One might think that would be a small simple script. Nope, we can clearly see that thinking would be wrong. Wait a minute.... did you rip those ears off that mouse? BRAVO, Bear....er, Mr. Kat!

    1. {sigh} Yes, I did rip those ears off. You'd think my Momma would take that as a warning ... but no. You did remind me of something though. I never got to bow to applause! Next time ... ~Bear Cat

  9. You need to do the same thing to MK that you did to the shmousy toy since she mocks you. I like how she lets you bite her. TW won't look at me if I even take a little nip. Sheesh.

    1. She doesn't let me ... I just go for it. I'm a bit relentless in that she can do anything she wants to try to make me stop, but I'll just bite her somewhere else ;) She's taken to running as fast as she can and trying to close me out of a room to get me to stop. Hehehehe. ~Bear Cat

  11. Your interview is proof 'pawsitive' I will never allow Sam to do a script for an interview. I'd probably wet myself snickering at his idea of how that'd go. For the record, I think the Mamma Kat held her own. Nice job you guys.

  12. That's quite the interview! "Management of humans" - MOL! I better not tell my cats that's a thing!
