The cat wakes up in the middle of the night. He's got a bad case of the rat fever, and he's been playing with his brother, who's also in a bad mood. The cat begs his brother to let him go, but his brother won't listen to him. He says that the cat is a "thick skinned kid" , so he shouldn't be afraid to hurt him, even if it means ripping his claws off. He tells his brother that the owner of the house isn't there, and that it's now time to bring nuonuo back home.
