The Cat and the Mouse

A sketch by Jean-Pierre Martinez

Two characters.
One – Remember? I told you I had a mouse in my house.
Two – Yeah.
One – You suggested I get a cat to get rid of it.
Two – And?
One – It worked. I don’t have a mouse anymore.
Two – Great.
One – Yeah. (Silence) But now, how do I get rid of the cat?
Blackout.
