Description: Sonic finds out that his friends Cream and Cheese are being held at a military research facility and rushes off on a rescue mission.
One morning at the Thorndyke Mansion, Chris was on the phone with his mother while Sonic watches this from the roof, looking bored.
Lindsey: *on the phone*Oh, this picture has been a disaster, darling! A complete disaster! We've had to stop shooting because there's been torrential rain for days so there's nothing I can do besides sit and wait. I don't think I'll be back 'til late next week at the earliest. But I had plenty of time to go shopping and I'm having lots of wonderful presents that I hope you'll like them. They're coming on daddy's jet so you should have them tonight!
Chris: Thanks, Mom. Mom, there's something I have to - well, there's something I did which I'm kinda not supposed to.
Lindsey: Christopher, what happened?! Are you all right?!
Chris: Yeah, I'm totally fine. But remember about how you've said about that I'm not allowed to swim at night and how you wanted me to stay away from the adult pool?
Lindsey: Did you go swimming in the adult pool at night all by yourself?!
Chris: Um, well... not exactly. You see, there is this "cat" in the pool and I got it out.
Lindsey: Oh, you have a big heart just like I do. Next time, ring for Mr. Tanaka and he'll take care of it, all right? Oh darling, I must run. Kiss mummy goodbye.
Kissing sounds between Chris and Lindsey
Lindsey: Ciao, sweetheart.
Chris hangs up phone as Sonic jumps onto the balcony.
Sonic: Take a good look, I'm a hedgehog, not a cat!
Chris: Um, I know. Please don't be mad. You see, my mom wouldn't understand.
Sonic: Why wouldn't she?
Chris: Well first of all, she knows that I wouldn't risk diving into a pool in the middle of the night just to save a little hedgehog.
Sonic: Really?
Chris: What else could I say to her? I couldn't tell it that I saved a blue, talking hedgehog. That reminds me! Where and when did you learn how to talk, Sonic?
Sonic: Good question. Unfortunately, I don't have a very good answer because I don't remember.
The phone rings.
Chris: Hello?
Nelson: Chris, is everything alright?
Chris: Hey dad, how are you?
Nelson: I'm fine but your mother just called and told me that you made an emergency rescue last night. I guess our security system can't protect against stray cats that decide they want to go for a midnight swim. Chris, I know you like animals but what you did was dangerous. Were you hurt? Did the cat scratch you while you were trying to save it?
Chris: No scratches at all. I'm fine, Dad. Honest, I am. It wasn't really that big a deal. After I jumped in and got it out of the water, it was really happy. I can tell.
Nelson: Yeah, gotcha, yeah-
Chris: Besides, I could've had Grandpa or Ella or Mr. Tanaka to help me if I needed to. Don't worry, Dad. They're taking good care of me.
Nelson: Yeah, they better be. Listen, Chris. I've got an important meeting to run to. You call me anytime if you need anything and no more late night swims, promise?
Chris: Okay, Dad. I promise. See ya soon.
Chris hangs up and then turns to Sonic who sighs in boredom.
