Rose enters the frame discussing the house.

. . .The house was originally built in 1982, and then remodeled by the original owners in the 90’s. That’s when they expanded the living room.
Gary
Nice!
Rose
There’s plenty of room here for a couple of couches, maybe some shelves, and a TV . . .
Gary
Oh, I don’t watch very much TV. I’m usually too busy reading, or camping.
Rose
Oh? I love camping. Can I show you the kitchen next?
Gary
Sure!

Rose
And, here is the kitchen. Most of the appliances are brand-new.
Gary
Very cool. I could see myself baking a lot of cakes in this kitchen.
Rose
Oh, you bake?
Gary
I love to bake. And cook.
Rose
Really? Say, are you busy tonight?
Gary
No . . .are you asking me out on a date?

Gary and Rosie enter the shot together.
Rosie
I had a great time. It was a perfect evening.
Gary
I had a great time, too.
They lean in to kiss. There is an explosion, and suddenly Gary has changed into a black cat.
Rosie
Oh, my! What happened!
Pickles
Oh Yay! The curse has been lifted! I’m back to normal.
Rosie
You’re really a cat?
Pickles
That’s right…is that a problem?
Rosie
I don’t know, can you still cook and do you for real like to go camping?
Pickles
I still like camping, but can’t cook because I’m a cat now.
Rosie
Are you litter trained?
Pickles
Of course!
Rosie
Well, then come on in!
