SHOT 1 (0:00–0:01)
Wide shot. Busy chaotic street packed with speeding cars driven by aggressive hyenas. No pedestrians on the road. Honking everywhere.
Audio: horns blaring, engines roaring.

SHOT 2 (0:01–0:02)
Close-up. Gray cat in blue overalls, right leg in cast, holding a crutch. Sweating, hopeless expression.
Gray Cat (muttering): “No way…”

SHOT 3 (0:02–0:03)
Over-shoulder rear shot. The gray cat’s shoulders and head dominate foreground, completely still, frozen in place at the curb.
In the background, cars blast past at high speed in continuous motion blur, barely any gaps.
A taxi swerves by — a sunglasses-wearing hyena driver leans out of the driver seat window toward camera.
Hyena Driver (shouting): “Don’t block the road!”

SHOT 4 (0:03–0:04)
Medium shot. Behind him, stylish white cat in pink t-shirt and white pants notices. Oversized diamond sunglasses sparkle.
White Cat: “Oh boy…”

SHOT 5 (0:04–0:05)
Cut to sidewalk. Kindergarten bunnies walking with backpacks, holding floating balloons. Innocent vibe. No humans present.

SHOT 6 (0:05–0:06)
Fast action. White cat snatches a white balloon from a bunny.
Bunny: “Hey—!”

Close-up. White cat stuffs balloon under shirt, forming a fake pregnant belly. Shirt stretches.

SHOT 8 (0:07–0:08)
White cat steps onto crosswalk, one hand holding belly, acting in pain. Dramatic limp.
White Cat (groaning): “Oh… it’s happening…”

SHOT 9 (0:08–0:09)
Cars slam brakes simultaneously. Tires screech. All visible hyenas remain inside driver seats, shocked.
Hyena Driver: “Whoa!!”

SHOT 10 (0:09–0:10)
Wide shot. Entire road frozen. Engines idling. White cat confidently turns back.

White cat grabs gray cat’s hand.
White Cat: “Let’s go!”

SHOT 13 (0:12–0:13)
Close-up. Balloon under shirt suddenly POPS loudly.
SFX: *BANG!*

SHOT 14 (0:13–0:14)
White cat freezes. Belly instantly flat. Awkward silence. Sunglasses slightly tilt.

SHOT 15 (0:14–0:15)
Hyena drivers still inside vehicles turn furious, honking aggressively.
White cat pushes gray cat to safety, then bows repeatedly in the middle of the road.
White Cat (shouting): “MY BAD, SORRY!”
