Mark Dindal: Max

Cats Don't Dance

Max

Darla Dimple: I'm the star! You stupid, stupid cat! I should have drowned you all when I flooded the stage!
[echoing over the PA says "Flooded the stage". The crowd, L.B. Mammoth and Flanigan were shocked and gasped]
Crowd: Darla Dimple! I can't believe it.
[Darla looks around, forces a smile, a weak giggle, grabs Danny, and tries to act all innocent. Pudge giggles and pushes the trap door lever]
Darla Dimple: [as she falls down the trap door, screaming] Max!
Max: [on the Darla balloon, floating over Paris] Oui, Miss Dimple?

Darla Dimple: They like it big, they like it loud / Maybe a little bit jazzy sometimes / Mister Pussycat, listen to me / You don't have to be good, but you had better be...
Max: Get hot, Miss Dimple.
Darla Dimple: Big and Loud! / Big and Loud! / Wanna make your mamma proud / Make it big / And / Loud!

Darla Dimple: [singing] I didn't get where I am today / By getting myself get pushed around / No man nor beast / Nor kitty cat nor doggie / Is going to bring me down.
Max: Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Darla Dimple: Shut up, Max.

L.B. Mammoth: Ah, the recipe for a Darla Dimple movie. Begin with one part adorable character in jeopardy.
[inside the soundstage, Darla has tied up Pudge]
Darla Dimple: Sorry, penguin, but in everyone's life, a little rain must fall. Max, man the valves!
Max: Yes, Miss Dimple.
[Max opens the water valve]
L.B. Mammoth: Add two parts perky determination...
Darla Dimple: More water, Max. More water!
[Max opens the water valve even more, causing the shower heads to burst open]
L.B. Mammoth: Sprinkle in an air of innocence...
Darla Dimple: Wind, Max! We must have WIND!
[Max rips off the fan guard, grips one of the blades, and pushes it down, creating wind]
L.B. Mammoth: Stir in...
Darla Dimple: More water!
[Max rips off the water valve, sending gallons of water gushing out into the flood]
L.B. Mammoth: Add a pinch of...
Darla Dimple: Thunder!
[Max grips a steam pipe, which starts bulging at the bottom. Two gauges and a bulb burn out, harming Pudge. The steam pipe eventually bursts, letting off steam]
L.B. Mammoth: And an itsy-bitsy dash of...
Darla Dimple: LIGHTNING!
[cackling evilly, Max slams the two lightning generators to create lightning]
L.B. Mammoth: Mix them all together, and what do you get?
[presses the open door button and the stage doors open, revealing a flooded stage which then spills out into the lot]
