Later on, Nolan and Kale are back in their house. They are sitting around the small dining table in the dark dining area; the only light is the ceiling light from above and the dim light from the living room.
Joined with them is Carter the cat, who is sitting alone on one end of the table, and Reid the milkshake, which is set on the table between Nolan and Kale.
Kale stares at the situation around the dining room before turning to his masked friend. "So what do we do?"
"I don't know!" Nolan hisses back at him.
"Carter should know." Kale throws a glance at the cooperating cat.
"He's a cat!"
He reverts his gaze back at him. "But he still knows."
Nolan narrows his eyes at him and asks lowly, "How can we get answers from a CAT?"
Kale purses his lips, squinting his eyes in deep thought. "We ask...?"
He gapes at him.
With that, Kale promptly whirls on his chair to face the cat. "So, Carter, tell me, how do we reverse all this?"
Carter response with an unfriendly growl.
"We need to reverse all this," he presses on as if he is communicating with a person. "This is all your fault."
The cat continues his growling.
Nolan looks at his friend. "We're talking to a cat." He then grabs his shoulders to force him to face him and enunciates loudly: "We're squeezing answers from a CAT!"
Kale tears his shoulders from his grasp to look back at the cat. "Look here, Carter, it's either we all go back to normal or you are a cat forever. Your choice."
Nolan lets out a pathetic whimper, placing his masked face in his hands.
On the other end of the table, Carter lets out another growl. He then hops off from the table and trots swiftly toward the exit of the house.
Nolan peeks his hands out from his hands, spotting the escaping cat. "No—!" He launches off from his seat and rushes after the feline.
Kale follows by scrambling out of his seat and speeding out of the dining room. He then slips back into view, plucks the Blizzard into his grasp, and dashes out of the room.
