thud
boosh
clang clang clang
kaboom
[instrumental music]
Help! Help!
Somebody help me! Help!
Save your breath, mousy.
You are doomed.
Oh, why couldn't
I have been born a dog?
pop
[shatters]
There is no use, mousy,
I have a superior advantage.
I'm bigger than you.
There's one last hope.
I'll write a desperate plea
for help.
swoosh
And now, mousy
I have big plans for you.
About which you will not
be too crazy.
[laughing]
[instrumental music]
The world must be in good shape.
I haven't had a call in days.
Oh, what's this?
Why, it's a desperate
plea for help.
"I have been captured
by Ali cat.
Please save me."
Signed, "Little Mouse."
A cat bullying
a little mouse, eh.
I better even things up.
Up and at 'em
Atom Ant!
swoosh
(Little Mouse)
'Help! Help!'
'Somebody save me.
Help this little mouse.'
That cry for help is coming
from the bowling alley.
Oh, woe is me.
Oh, woe is me.
Pipe down, mousy,
you'll spoil my aim.
Here, have a ball.
A bowling ball.
[chuckles]
- Atom Ant!
- Relax, little mouse.
I, Atom Ant, received your note
and I will save you.
swish
What the..
Hey, what's with this
bowling ball?
crash
It seems I have
developed quite a hook.
[instrumental music]
Thanks, Atom Ant,
you saved my life.
My pleasure, mouse,
but you have to watch out.
I don't think
that feline cat-astrophe
is ready to give up yet.
In that case,
you better stick around.
I will, and be careful
that cat plays pretty rough.
I do hope you like a friendly
game of darts, mousy.
'It's one of my
all-time favorite.'
You better cool it, cat,
Atom Ant is here.
And, uh, whom is that?
I am Atom Ant
and I'm the most powerful
little feller in the world.
Permit me to demonstrate.
[groans]
This is called a flying mare.
thud
(Atom Ant)
'And it's one of my'
'all-time favorites.'
An ant versus a pussy cat
is no contest in my book.
I just got to assert myself.
screech
Alright, insignificant
little insect type ant.
Prepare for disaster.
I am prepared, and I accept
your challenge.
Shall we begin?
Funny, I always think of ants
as little guys to step on.
bash
But this little ant
is definitely different.
Are you ready
to mend your ways, pussycat?
As a matter of fact I am.
I am going to take the offensive
for a change.
thud
[laughing]
I am a merciless villain.
creak
Hey, what's going on?
bam
thud
This guy is too much.
[instrumental music]
Do you think that cat has
the hard facts
pounded into him yet?
Not if I know cats.
When you least expect it,
he's liable
to sneak up and grab you.
He who fights and runs away
lives to fight another day.
I always say.
[coughing]
You can't run away
from Atom Ant.
Don't be silly.
Any cat can outrun an ant.
Not this ant, pussycat.
Shall we take a little spin?
Hey, hold it! Hold it!
Where are we going?
You are going out.
Uh-oh, to the clothes line.
twig
toing
He's coming back, Atom Ant.
Let's close the door on him.
slam
crash
thud
bam
You win, Ant, I give up
surrender and quit.
And do you promise
to be a good friend
and never chase
this mouse again?
I promise never to chase
Little Mousy again.
Pussycat's honor.
Gee, thanks, Atom Ant.
Life is gonna be a lot easier
for me from now on.
You bet, mousy
I have learned never to tangle
with Atom Ant.
[music continues]
Uh, once again
the world is at peace
and I can relax.
Help! Help!
Atom Ant, you gotta save me.
screech
I need your help, Atom Ant.
What's the trouble, pussycat?
'It's that grouchy dog
who lives next door.'
He keeps chasing me
all day long.
I'll tear you apart, cat.
I'll pulverize you.
I'll stop you
into little pieces.
[laughing]
See what I mean?
I just plain can't stand cats.
Well, here I go again.
Hold on there, dog.
whoosh
Up and at 'em
Atom Ant.
