Safe Havens

"I assumed Ming would wear an outlandish outfit to the Academy Awards." says the talking cat who I think used to be a dog?
"In a way," says Samantha, "she is! Her baby is part of it!"
"Wait." says the cat in alarm. "She's bringing Clay into the Oscars?"
"She's striking a blow for maternal acceptance." says Samantha.
"But..." says the cat, "don't they have a height requirement?"

"Hey, they let in Tom Cruise..." thinks Clay, who is currently in a completely different location with no way of knowing what the cat is saying and is therefore clearly not responding to it. I guess he's just surprised that Tom Cruise was let into the Oscars for some reason. I don't know, it seems pretty reasonable to me, he is a movie star.
