(Screams)

What are you doing, ya stupid nitwit?

Don't let him get away!

(Laughs)

(Yelling)

(Bloodthirsty screaming)

Ow!

Ow!

Are you trying to kill me?

Ah, the mouse!

(Ernie) Let me see. Let me see!

(Lars) Can you see him?

Get me my Gouda.

- Careful, careful!

- Don't touch me. You'll snap it.

You're not doin' it right.

(Lars) Put it on carefully.

(Ernie) I am.

(Ernie) Oh, relax. It's cheese.

Bon appetit.

That takes care of that. Huh?

(Hammering)

Oh! Oh!

Hey!

Hey! What are you doin'?

(Squeaking)

(Chugging)

(Squeaking)

Lars! Gimme a hand with this.

(Lars) You sure this tub

fits with the house?

Jacuzzi tub, Lars.

It's a Jacuzzi tub.

And this isn't just a house.

It's a LaRue.

Of course it fits the decor.

- Luxury is timeless.

- How much, Ernie?

(Sighs) It was a steal at $1200.

(Lars) $1200?

You spent our last money on a tub!

(Ernie) A Jacuzzi tub!

You have to spend money

to make money.

They threw in the cardboard lady too.

(Screaming)

(Screaming)

(Yelling)

(Screaming)

- (Sighing)

- Well...

(Lars sighing) Don't you think

this is a little...much?

Never underestimate your opponent.

Say he has mastered a way to empty

a mousetrap without getting caught.

If he snaps one of these babies,

a chain reaction

will start snapping them all.

The law of averages

says one has to nab him.

(Sighs) Not bad.

Yes. Well, I like

to use both sides of my brain.

Come on, let's hit the sack.

(Sighing)

- Have you figured it out yet?

- Shut up.

I'm thinking. I'm thinking!

Ernie. Ernie!

Keep perfectly still. This is it.

- What's he doing?

- I don't know.

That was good.

Shh! He's goin' for the cherries!

You said mice like Gouda.

Not in the morning!

They need fruit for energy.

(Screaming)

(Whimpering)

- (Screaming)

- (Ernie) Oh, no!

Ow! Ow.

(Both grunting and groaning)

- Aah... Ow!

- D-D-D-D-D-D-D.

There he goes!

- Juice!

- Got it!

(Laughing maniacally)

This game is over!

(Cheering and yelling)

(Laughing)

- I think it's working!

- Yeah.

- (Thump)

- Whoa! Uh! I felt something.

(Lars) Ooh, ooh, ooh. Keep sucking!

(Slurping)

Goddamn, that mouse stinks! (Cackles)

Dead animals always do.

- Ohh!

- (Both laughing maniacally)

- (Lars) Keep sucking!

- (Rumbling)

(Lars) Oh, yeah, this'll get him!

(Liquid rumbling)

(Squelch)

- What's this?

- We're foreclosing on your house.

You quit paying your mortgage.

Oh, wait a minute, there's some

mistake, this house is paid for.

It was, but you borrowed against it.

If you don't pay the $1200,

we repossess it.

- $1200?

- Well, how long do we have?

One week from, uh...five days ago.

(Panting) But, uh, that's two days!

We don't have the time
