And his personal business, he's having this flashback to, like Steve said, stealing the ice cream and chicken from the restaurant, and he gets kicked out. And he meets, like, a gang of meowth. It's like there's a bunch of meouts. And again, like, my question is, do cats exist or are they only meouts? Are all cats meouts? No, I think there's probably a real cat floating around. So the Pokemon's are dead. So they're around.

There's a gang of them. But there's like an evolved version, which is like this Persian motherfucker. And... Which, yeah, they just call him the Persian. And he's just like, meh, meh. What is he? The Persian. Is he a fucking character in Snatch?

The Persian. Well, he looks like a Persian cat. But at the same time, he's just like bigger and strong. Well, he's horny. That's why he sounds like that. Well, I will bring this up. When I look at meowth, my first thought is not meowth. Yeah, yeah, that's true.

He runs across the high. highway. I think he's like running across the fucking 405 right here. And like he's like, oh, me, me, yeah. The gag is he causes like a massive pile up. Like there's people who are dead because this cat was horny. That's what happens with cats, dude. They get, they get in heat and you steer the fuck clear. They're going to kill us all! That's why Bob Barker, one of those fuckers fixed. All of them. You're going to start crashing cars all over the 405 if you don't get your cat fixed.

and you would think he would like be like oh I'm gonna get all sorts of money no I must become human which is weird I don't know how he makes this one to two thing. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, boy, I want to fall in love with this lady fair. You know what? She probably loves human beings and Pokemon who act like them. And, like, you find some dance studio.

He's like spying on these ballerinas, dude. It's weird. And he starts to walk on two legs, but it's shown to be very painful to him. Which is, really, like, either it's something of fun Pokemon. do or it's not. But that's a true thing though, because I was seeing this article.
