Saturday, October 25th
 (dictated 7:46 pm, Oct 29) 

     The weekend went by pretty fast,  
and I was glad.                        
     That just sounds so wrong, but I  
don't care.                            
     I told Beth almost everything, and
she didn't believe it either, even     
after I showed her the video.          
     “I don't believe it. A talking    
Cat, Crim? I love you and all that, but
I just can’t... Oh, what the hell. I   
believe it, because you believe it. But
I’m sorry, I still gotta see this talk-
ing Cat right here in front of me, and 
not on some obviously fake video       
either.”                               
     “Don't be sorry babe. I don't     
believe it either, and I've already    
seen her talk right in front of me.    
That's why this Halloween’s so damn    
important.”                            
     “Why? What's gonna happen then?”  
     That's when I told her about the  
Cat wanting to escape, and especially  
the one hundred thousand dollars.      
     “One hundred thousand dollars!”   
She almost shouted, but then thought   
about it, just like I did, but came up 
with it faster than I did, “Where the  
hell is a Cat gonna get a hundred      
grand?”                                
     “That's exactly the same thing I  
thought,” I told her, “including the   
'hell' part.”                          
     “Why doesn’t she just buy her way 
out, or walk out of there on her own?” 
     “I’m not really sure,” I said, and
then told her about the bloody bag, and
also about Frankenstein and his two    
evil assistants.                       
     That last part got me skeptical   
again, but that smart-phone, the credit
score, and how it looked so real when  
she talked, especially on that video,  
and I didn’t know what to think        
anymore.                               
     Plus, I don’t know why Beth       
thought it was fake. I know I didn’t   
fake it but arguing about it would be a
total waste of time. Nothing’s gonna   
convince her anyway, until she actually
sees the Cat talking right in front of 
her, just like she said.
