[Upbeat music plays, birds chirp]
A narrator says, IN THIS LITTLE TOWN LIVES A KITTEN NAMED COOKIE, HIS BIG BROTHER PUDDING, AND THEIR LITTLE SISTER CANDY. LOTS OF OTHER KITTENS LIVE HERE TOO.
Kittens wave happily.
The narrator says, COOKIE, CANDY, AND PUDDING! KID-E-CATS!
Striped red text beneath Pudding, Candy and Cookie reads, “Kid-E-Cats.”
Cookie and Pudding say, WE'RE CUTE!
Candy says, BUT I'M CUTER!
All three say, ME-WOW!
Fluffy blue clouds float in the blue sky above the Kid-E-Cats yellow two-storey house. Leaves on the trees are orange and yellow, and leaves lie scattered on pale green grass around the house.
Episode title: The Vacuum Cleaner.
[Chiming]
The narrator says, "THE VACUUM CLEANER."
[Vacuum whirring]
The narrator says, ONE DAY, THE KITTENS WERE BUSY DOING THEIR CHORES.
Cookie and Pudding vacuum a carpet. Candy moves back and forth in front of the nozzle. Behind her, Daddy cat enters the room carrying a box.
Daddy cat says, COME LOOK WHAT I HAVE! KITTENS!
[Candy grunting]
Daddy cat says, LOOK WHAT I'VE GOT HERE!
[Clicking, whirring stops]
Daddy cat says, I SAID YOU SHOULD COME AND LOOK AT WHAT I'VE GOT HERE!
Daddy cat puts the box down and removes the lid. A round, grey vacuum cleaner lies inside.
[Rustling, happy music plays]
Cookie says, HUH. IT'S A WEIGHING SCALE. I WONDER HOW MUCH I WILL WEIGH.
Daddy cat says, COOKIE, STOP! IT ISN'T A SCALE; IT'S A VACUUM CLEANER!
Daddy cat takes the vacuum cleaner out of the box and puts it on a carpet.
[Rattling]
The kittens say, A VACUUM CLEANER?
Candy says, UH, BUT IT LOOKS STRANGE, DOESN'T IT, DADDY?
Daddy cat says, IT'S A ROBOT VACUUM CLEANER. VACUUMS ALL BY ITSELF. JUST LOOK!
Daddy cat turns the robot vacuum on, and it moves forward.
[Clicking, happy music plays, whirring]
The kittens say, AWESOME!
Daddy cat says, OUR HOUSE WILL BE SUPER CLEAN WITH THE HELP OF THIS CLEVER THING.
[Happy music continues, whirring]
The kittens say, SO AWESOME.
They hold hands and sing, MEWOW, MEWOW, MEWOW, MEWOW!
Daddy cat says, JUST DON'T TRY STANDING ON IT AGAIN, ALL RIGHT, COOKIE? OR OUR AWESOME ROBOT VACUUM WILL BREAK.
Later, Cookie and Pudding play checkers on the couch. Candy lies across the top and watches. A leaf blows inside through an open window. The robot vacuum activates and picks up the leaf.
[Wind gusting, leaf rustling, beeping, whirring, happy music plays]
Pudding says, OUR VACUUM IS REALLY SMART. IT SOMEHOW KNOWS WHEN SOMETHING NEEDS CLEANING UP.
Cookie says, AH!
Cookie runs out of the room and returns with an armful of leaves. He puts one on the floor.
Cookie says, HEY, LOOK! I'M COOKIE, THE VACUUM TRAINER.
Cookie puts leaves on the carpet, and the robot vacuum follows him. Pudding puts the checkerboard on the floor, and the robot vacuum moves close to it and away. Cookie puts more leaves on the floor.
[Whirring, beeping, upbeat music plays]
Cookie says, AAH!
[Laughing, clapping]
Candy says, AWESOME! HEY, LET'S KEEP PLAYING WITH IT!
Pudding says, ALL RIGHT, I'LL RUN AND GATHER A BUNCH OF LEAVES. ARE YOU SURE THE VACUUM WON'T BREAK FROM SUCKING UP ALL THOSE LEAVES?
In a daydream, the kittens drop a trail of leaves and the robot vacuum chases them. The vacuum explodes and covers the kittens with leaves. The daydream ends.
[Slide whistle, leaves rustling, happy music plays, booming, slide whistle]
Candy says, WE'LL GET A REALLY LONG THREAD AND TIE IT TO A LEAF OF YOURS, AND THEN THE VACUUM WON'T SUCK THE LEAF UP!
Candy drags a leaf on a string, and the robot vacuum chases it. The kittens run around the living room. They lead it through the house.
[Everyone laughing, whirring, happy music plays, rustling]
The kittens run into their bedroom and stop. The robot vacuum takes the leaf.
[Breathing heavily, rustling]
Pudding says, I'M SO TIRED FROM RUNNING.
Cookie says, THEN, LET'S REST FOR A WHILE AND PLAY SOME MORE LATER.
The robot vacuum sucks in part of the string and deactivates.
[Beeping]
Later, Cookie lies up on his bunk bed. Pudding lies on the floor, drawing, and Candy draws at a small blue table.
[Markers scratching, Candy humming, upbeat music plays]
Candy says, HEY, PUDDING, CAN YOU PLEASE PASS ME THE RED MARKER?
Pudding says, UH, MAYBE THE ROBOT VACUUM CAN BRING IT OVER.
[Clanking]
Cookie says, OH!
Pudding says, HEY, TRY TO TEMPT IT WITH SOMETHING CANDY.
Candy says, HERE, KITTY, KITTY.
Candy waves a scrap of paper and puts it on the carpet. The robot vacuum activates, and Pudding puts the red marker on top. The vacuum cleans up the scrap of paper, and Candy takes the marker off the top.
[Rustling, beeping, whirring]
Cookie says, OH, DELIVERY VACUUM! AWESOME!
Cookie climbs down the bunk bed ladder.
[Footsteps pattering, laughing]
Cookie says, I WONDER JUST HOW MUCH THIS VACUUM CAN CARRY.
Candy says, HERE, KITTY!
Candy waves scraps of paper and puts them on the carpet. Cookie and Pudding stack eight hardcover books on the vacuum, which moves slower as the stack gets higher.
[Whirring]
Pudding says, WOW, REALLY STRONG, ISN'T IT?
Cookie says, COULD IT CARRY ME, AS WELL?
Pudding and Candy say, COOKIE, STOP!
[Cracking]
Later, Daddy cat looks down at the cracked robot vacuum.
Daddy cat says, OH, COOKIE, DIDN'T I TELL YOU NOT TO STAND ON THE VACUUM?
Cookie says, WE WERE PLAYING WITH IT, AND I FORGOT.
Daddy cat picks up the robot vacuum.
[Rattling]
Daddy cat says, KITTENS, ROBOT VACUUMS ARE NOT TOYS, OKAY? THIS IS A COMPLICATED APPLIANCE THAT SHOULD BE TREATED WITH GREAT CARE.
Candy asks, DADDY, DO YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN FIX IT?
Daddy cat says, OH, I'M AFRAID I WON'T BE ABLE TO.
Pudding says, OH, NO. THEN, WE WON'T HAVE A ROBOT VACUUM ANYMORE.
[Crying]
Daddy cat says, WELL, I CAN'T FIX IT, BUT I THINK THEY'LL BE ABLE TO DOWN AT THE WORKSHOP.
In the workshop, Daddy cat and the kittens stand by a counter. A mechanic leans over the robot vacuum.
[Tools clattering, whirring]
The mechanic says, UH HUH. HERE IT IS, ALL FIXED AGAIN. POOR THING WAS ALL FULL OF LEAVES. IT LOOKED LIKE SOMEBODY RODE ON IT.
[Leaves rustling, Daddy cat chuckling]
Daddy cat says, THANKS A LOT. THE KITTENS WERE PLAYING WITH IT. THEY'VE NEVER SEEN AN APPLIANCE LIKE THIS ONE.
The mechanic says, IT'LL JUST BREAK AGAIN IF YOU KEEP ON TREATING IT LIKE SOME KIND OF PLAYTHING. BUT I'LL BUY IT FROM YOU, IF YOU'D LIKE.
Daddy cat says, HUH.
The kittens run to Daddy cat.
Cookie says, AW, DADDY!
Candy says, DADDY, YOU CAN'T!
Pudding pleads, COME ON, DADDY, CAN'T WE KEEP IT?
Daddy cat says, WELL, I JUST DON'T KNOW, KITTENS. WHAT IF YOU DECIDE TO PLAY WITH IT AGAIN?
[Dinging]
Candy says, I HAVE A REALLY GOOD IDEA. WE WON'T PLAY WITH THE VACUUM, WE PROMISE. AND INSTEAD, WE'LL TREAT IT WITH GREAT CARE.
The mechanic says, NOW, THAT IS WONDERFUL.
[Mechanic and Daddy cat laughing, happy music plays]
Daddy cat says, OKAY, WELL, I GUESS WE'LL TAKE THE VACUUM BACK HOME WITH US.
[Happy music plays]
The kittens say, SO AWESOME.
They hold hands and sing, MEWOW, MEWOW, MEWOW, MEWOW!
The narrator says, AND THAT'S HOW THE KITTENS LEARNED THAT IF YOU WANT AN APPLIANCE TO DO ITS JOB FOR A LONG TIME WITHOUT BREAKING, YOU HAVE TO LOOK AFTER IT AND TREAT IT WITH CARE.
