Kaji begins to whine.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I'm pretty hungry as my meal time is near.
Kaji and Peter begin to have breakfast together. Soon, there's nothing left on the table.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Now, I don't have to worry if my meal is delayed or not.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): When the maid is at home, she feeds me on time.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): But when she's not here, the Pack Leader likes to delay my meal.

END MONTAGE

Climbing up onto him, Kaji begins to lick Peter's face passionately.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Not hungry now, still I've the desire to hunt.
Kaji goes to her toy box, selects a prey and takes it to Peter.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Would you play with me?
Peter looks back.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Let me show you how to play again.
Getting the toy prey, Peter throws it in the air casually.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): He doesn't seem to be enthusiastic though.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): My pride is stronger than my urge to play.
Observing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): He looks preoccupied. All work and no play?
Thinking.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): That makes you sad and grey!
Stop engaging Peter, Kaji turns to something else.

KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It's good to see a returning Gang Member. I don't know what game he plays when he's not with us.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): For me, when to play and with whom count.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Although I can play the fetching game better than Peter, I still want him to play with me.
Discreetly, Peter passes some macaroni to Kaji, unnoticed by others.
KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): That's why I think of him all the time.
