“Every time I do laundry he defends one sock. It’s impossible to finish.”

[Interior: An orange cat sits on a bed, guarding a gray sock]

Woman, off screen: “I want that sock. Can I have that sock?”

[She attempts to grab the sock. The cat paws her hand away.]

Woman: “Can I have that sock‽ I just want that sock.”

[She reaches for the sock again. The cat swats her away.]

Woman: “Stop! Can I have the sock?”

Cat: [mew!]

Woman: “I just want the sock. Can I have it?”

Cat: [mew!]

[She reaches for the sock. The cat pounces on her hand.]

Woman: “I just want that sock!”

Cat: [mews triumphantly]

Woman: “Flash! I want that sock!”

Cat: [mew.]

Woman: “Stop. the sock.”

Cat: [mew…]

Woman: “Gimmie the sock!”

[Her hand enters the frame. And the cat’s paw rises in anticipation.]

Woman: “Sock! I just want it.”

Cat: [meorw!]

Woman: “I just want the sock. I gotta finish laundry. It’s just one sock!”
