Conflict Between Cat and Mouse
Male voice
Well, well, well, look at the big brave pussycat.
Male voice
Yeah, picking on a teensy-weensy mouse.
Dog
He'll feel guilty for this for the rest of his days. First time out in the cold, right? And instead of being pals, you're fighting like a cat and a mouse.
[Tom and Jerry nod]
Male voice
They are a cat and a mouse, Puggsy.
Puggsy
That's true, Frankie, but they gotta learn to be pals or they aren't gonna make it out here. Is that true too?
Flea
All too true, too. Frankie da Flea is the name, and I'm of French extraction.
Puggsy
Haha! That just means before he met me, he lived on a poodle. Haha! I've been on the streets 2 years now. My owners left me behind when they moved. The name is Puggsy. What's yours?
Tom
I'm Tom.
Jerry
I'm Jerry.
Both
You talked!
Tom
Well, sure, I talked. What do you think I am, a dummy?
Jerry
You said it, I didn't.
Tom
Hey, you little pipsqueak, I oughta...! Hey! How come you've never spoke before?
Jerry
There was nothing I wanted to say that I thought you'd understand, and there still isn't!
Tom
All right, that does it, you little...! Oh, boy! You get me angry!

A Search for a Missing Parent
Robyn
He's alive?! My daddy is alive?! I've got to go find him. He might be hurt. I'm sure he needs me. It'll be cold in Tibet. I better wear a hat.
[relieved; opens her drawer, then pulls out clothing and throws them aside; As she throws the clothing out of the drawer, a sock flies into Jerry's face. As she puts on a raincoat, Jerry removes the sock. As a hat lands on Tom's head, she takes it off his head and puts it on her own]

Tibet?

Tom
Over the hills.
Jerry
It's past Cleveland.
Robyn
Here, Tom. Throw this end out the window. Tom, hurry!
[picks up the bed sheets; tosses Tom the line of bed sheets, and he catches them; Tom makes his way over to the window. He opens it and drops the line of bed sheets down the front of the house. Robyn puts on her backpack. She looks down to the ground, then climbs down the line. Robyn lands on the ground. Tom and Jerry look down from the window]
Jerry
Down, please.
[hops onto Tom's hands]
Tom

A Young Girl's Journey as an Orphan
Jerry
So, your name's Robyn, and you ran away from home.
Robyn
How did you know?
Jerry
Your name's on your locket.
Robyn
Oh, yes. It's Robyn Starling. I'm afraid I don't have a home anymore. I'm an orphan. My mother died when I was a baby.
Jerry
What about your father? What happened to him?
Robyn
My father's on an expedition climbing a mountain, when the snow gave way in an…
Tom
Avalanche?
Robyn
Uh-huh, and he was the most wonderful father in the world. We had our own secret place just for the two of us, and…
[She starts to cry; opens the locket and shows the duo pictures of herself and her father]
Jerry
And that's where you were going?
Robyn
Uh-huh, and to get away from… …my Aunt Figg. She's not really my aunt, just my guardian. But she's taken over the house. She moved me into the attic, and gave my room to her dog, Ferdinand.
[She wipes a tear from her eye; She stops crying, then scowls]
Tom
Ferdinand?
Robyn
Aunt Figg was always calling me "orphan". She even stole my locket, and threw it out the window, but I climbed down and found it, and…
Jerry
Kept on running.
Robyn
As fast as I could. And I'm never going back.
[turns away and crosses her arms]
Tom
Oh, smart, real smart, kid. You got a roof over your head, 3 short meals for a day, and a warm bed. Who'd wanna leave that?
Jerry
I hate to admit it, Robyn, but Tom's right. You never know what you're missing till you don't have it.
Robyn
You don't know Aunt Figg. She seems sweet, but underneath, she's mean! Real mean!
Jerry
Aw, come on. I'll bet she's frantic looking for you.
Tom
Oh, sure. She's crying her eyes out for you right this minute.
