Watching Purrloin outside the window, Thoos said, "That one, and then that one. That one, and then that one." Picknar joined in, saying, "Yes. That one, and then that one." Rodrigo stood up and said, "Finally. Something fun to do." The three of them all joined in together saying things like, "Come on, purrloin, that one, and then that one!" and "we'll give you all sorts of treats if you do it," and "Pss-pss-pss-pss," and "You can do it!" and "Go for it, little buddy!" and "That one, and then that one." Rodrigo, grinning, turned to Knox and said, "Come on, Knox. Don't you have anything to contribute?" Knox contributed by saying, "I hope that cat falls off of that ledge." Pleased, Rodrigo said, "Good man. That's the spirit. Now come over here and join in on the fun while saying that."
