(At the OC House, Generous was playing with Terence, Daisy, Dayana, and Terence and Daisy's kittens)

Twistar: (Arrives with a giant satellite dish)

Generous: Oh hi, Twistar! You brought a giant satellite dish I see?

Twistar: Yeah, I thought it would provide us with good signal.

Daisy: What do you guys even need the dish for?

Terence: (Shrugs)

(That night, Twistar sets the satellite dish on the roof)

Twistar: There, all hooked up! (Notices a sign) Huh, what's that little sign saying? (Takes a look) "Caution: Avoid getting tuna on satellite dish. Manifacturer won't be responsible for side effects". Strange warning, but better tell the others so they know.

(Inside, Miss Crazy was preparing a small TV)

Clara: What's the TV for?

Little Miss Crazy: To test the satellite dish! With it we can watch 100 channels!

Thunder: Yeah, but best we don't watch them at night.

Little Miss Crazy: But there are so many stuff to pick from, besides we don't get to work today, it's a public holiday.

Generous: Well, try it out for now...

Twistar: Oh, and one more thing don't get any tuna on the satellite dish okay?

Little Miss Crazy: Why?

Twistar: (Gives her a book) Here's the satellite dish listings. And I'm serious, I heard that if you watch too much TV you may turn into one. (Leaves)

Thunder: Huh, classic lies parents tell their kids...

Little Miss Crazy: (Takes a look at the list) Wow, so many choices, and very helpful too. Who said TV can't be educational?

(Soon, Miss Crazy prepares to watch TV with the cats)

Little Miss Crazy: (Gives them a plate full of tuna) Here's some tuna for you guys, (Pulls a can of tuna) and for me and let's see what we got. (Turns the TV on only for the TV to show static) Odd, hey Twistar did you hook the satellite dish wrong? (Leaves)

Ginger: Daddy, it's not working.

Terence: Don't worry, maybe Auntie Twistar can fix this.

Twistar: (Offscreen) Not now, Miss Crazy. I'm busy!

Dayana: Or not...

Terence: Then, I'll have to fix this myself. I'll be back! (Leaves)

(Once outside on the roof, Terence gets on the satellite dish trying to fix it)

Terence: Maybe it should be there?

TV host: Consider if you will, the case of one Terence the cat. Life of this cat has been consisting on sleeping, eating and playing.

Little Miss Crazy: (Appears, on the roof still holding the open can of tuna) Well, I guess I have to fix it my- (Gasps) Terence get down from here! Generous will be worried about- (Accidentally drops her tuna can on the satellite dish) MY TUNA!!!!!

(Terence gets electrocuted and then disappears, causing Miss Crazy to freak out more)

TV Host: A chance meeting of tuna, a manufacturer's warning unheeded, now Terence the cat finds himself in the wrong end of the cathode ray tube. Don't touch that dial, for you're in "The Midnight Zone".

(Inside, the small TV starts playing)

Pumkin: Hey, it's working!

(The movie "Frankenstein 1931" film was playing on the infamous scene of the monster coming to life. But instead of the monster emerging from the sheet it was just Terence)
