(CAT throws shriveled thing at dog.)

Hey, knock it off!

(He looks at shriveled thing.)

What on earth is that?

CAT

Suspicious, isn’t it?

DOG It’s… it’s something, alright. Don’t throw things. CAT Did you see what it was? DOG Yes. CAT What do you think it is?

(DOG looks over at the thing and sniffs it. He shrugs.) DOG

I dunno.

CAT

Look closely.

DOG
