  1. FADE IN.


  2. Act 1


  3. EXT. PET GARDEN - DAY


  4. A little rain. KAJI, the PACK LEADER and PETER hurried in.


  5. KAJI (V.O.): I see neither friends nor their masters here.


  6. Walking to the lawn, Kaji searches around plants.


  7. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Let me find my spots to pee first.


  8. Having checked the spot, Kaji pees.


  9. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): To poop, I'm particularly choosy.


  10. Then, Kaji walks across to another lawn with some flowering shrubs.


  11. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I need to return to the spots where I'd feel being connected with nature.


  12. Kaji sniffs around the shrubs,


  13. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Finding the right spot to poop is a big thing to me.


  14. Act 2


  15. INT. PET GARDEN - CONTINUOUS


  16. Hesitating, Kaji continues to sniff around the shrubs.


  17. KAJI (V.O.): It does take me a long time to decide where to poop.


  18. Pausing.


  19. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): The right spots are actually my social platforms.


  20. Sniffing.


  21. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): When I sniff around, I'm reading the messages that my friends and I have left behind.


  22. Pausing.


  23. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): The cues makes me go potty.


  24. Sniffing.


  25. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): I let my friends know where I've been and what I've been doing.


  26. Pausing.


  27. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): That's why I insist to come back here, no matter what.


  28. FLASHBACK


  29. EXT. PARK WALK - EARLIER


  30. A little rain. The walk is wet.


  31. KAJI (V.O.): My fur is a little wet. But we haven't come out for days.


  32. PACK LEADER: We won't go to the open-air pet garden.


  33. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Why are we walking in the opposition direction?


  34. Following the Pack Leader and Peter, Kaji walks patiently.


  35. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): We may be exploring something interesting...


  36. The Pack Leader leads Kaji to a covered grass-free ground.


  37. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I can't recall I've been here before.


  38. Sniffing.


  39. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I can't sniff any scent of mine or of others.


  40. The Pack Leader and Peter are observing Kaji.


  41. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I feel stressed and distracted in this setting.


  42. Sniffing hard.


  43. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I don't feel any magnetic force here!


  44. Kaji whines weirdly.


  45. PETER: Oh, she seldom complains like that. Let's go to the pet garden despite the rain.


  46. As they turnaround, Kaji is quick to lead.


  47. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I know the right way to the right place.


  48. Soon, Kaji, the Pack Leader and Peter begin to run under the rain.


  49. END FLASHBACK


  50. Act 3


  51. INT. PET GARDEN - CONTINOUS


  52. Spinning her body in a circle, Kaji assumes a pooping position.


  53. KAJI (V.O.): Aligning myself with the force, I feel I'm part of nature.


  54. Dropping.


  55. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): My social platforms will neither expose me nor enrage others in public.


  56. Kicking the grass a little.


  57. KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I find peace and joy to get my jobs done, even though I'm quite alone here.


  58. Thinking.


  59. KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): I'm having my sweet time: I-Me-Mine.
