Monsterpiece Theater logo and fanfare. Cut to Alastair Cookie in his armchair.

Cookie: "Pip, pip, good ev-a-ning, and welcome to "Monsterpiece Theater". Tonight, me proud to present classic satire "The Mouse That Roared". Me not sure, but it might have something to do with war on America. And now, "The Mouse That Roared"."

Fade in on a cow sitting in a barn.

Cow: "Mooo! Moooo! Mooooo!"

Cut back to Alastair Cookie.

Cookie: "NO! WAIT! That "The Cow That Mooed"! Now, here "The Mouse That Roared"!"

Fade in on Watson in a mansion.

Watson: "Woof! Woof!"

Sherlock Hemlock then runs in.

Sherlock: "I say, come on, Watson! We've got to finish solving this case!"

Cut back to Alastair Cookie.

Cookie: "WAIT! HOLD ON THERE! That "The Dog That Barked"! NOW, here "The Mouse That Roared"!"

Fade in on two very British AM mice sitting in their hole.

Mouse #1: (roars)

Mouse #2: "I say, old chap. A mouse can't roar! A mouse goes "squeak, squeak"!"

Mouse #1: "Well, old bean, the name of this film IS "The Mouse That Roared"!"

Cut back to Alastair Cookie.

Cookie: "And there you have it. "The Mouse That Roared"."

Just then, Vincent Twice rushes in.

Vincent: "Hold on, Alastair Cookie!"

Cookie: "What YOU doing here? Go back to your own show!"

Vincent: "I just want to sue you for putting Sherlock Hemlock and Watson on your show!"

Cookie: "But that just accident! (Turns to face viewer.) Anyway, this Alastair Cookie saying "Farewell!" from "Mysterious - er, MONSTERPIECE Theater"!

As Cookie and Vincent begin to argue, we hear the "Monsterpiece Theater" fanfare.
