FADE IN
Act 1
INT. LIVING ROOM - DAY
Resting on a sofa, KAJI, a light brown shiba inu with round eyes, is observing PETER.
KAJI (V.O.): What is he after? I'm here.
We see Peter staring at a turtle's house at a cosy corner.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I hear some occasional sounds coming from there.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): But I won't bother as there isn't my territory.
Opening a lid of the house, Peter picks up a turtle and says: Fly...
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Fly? I can fly too.
Holding the turtle in his hands, Peter tries to get Kaji's attention.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It's your turtle friend...
Act 2
INT. LIVING ROOM - CONTINUOUS
Kaji sniffs the air.
KAJI (V.O.): My friend? I haven't had close encounters with it.
Kaji takes a step back.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I need to protect myself.
Peter puts the turtle inside a transparent plastic tank.
PETER (Cont'd): Come closer to have a good look.
Kaji studies the turtle cautiously.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Small eyes, small nose, small mouth....
Investigating.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It doesn't have any fur at all!
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): No paws either.
Investigating.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): No whiskers too.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): No idea whether it's a male or female.
Kaji looks very curious.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): But it carries an oversized oval-shaped case on its back!
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It looks tough to carry it.
Investigating.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Why doesn't it let go of the case?
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): What is the case for?
Investigating.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It's pretty quiet too.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Is it dumb?
The turtle then uses its powerful jaws to push the tank, generating squeaking sounds.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Oh no!
Retreating abruptly, Kaji hides under the dinner table.
PETER: Come on!
Kaji goes to pat Kaji's head.
KAJI (V.O.): What if it's a violent charge from a predator?
Kaji remains stay put.
Act 3
INT. LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
Resting on a sofa, Kaji takes a look of the turtle's house.
KAJI (V.O.): My protective instinct against the turtle is natural.
Pausing.
KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Crucial for my comfort and well-being is space and privacy.
Thinking.
KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): I've discovered that hiding under the table isn't a safe haven, but having a turtle's case on my back is!
FADE OUT
