You think this
is cute, don't you?

You think there's
a real connection there.

So you feed it,

you dress it up.

But a cat doesn't care
if you live or die

as long as someone gives
it Friskies twice a day.

But people are so desperate
for someone to hold onto

they'll take whatever
they can get.

I found him on the street,
months after the accident

and I dress him like Masao.

I know my son has come back
to me in this cat.

But no matter
how lonely you are,

a cat is not a person.

Okay.
Super helpful, uh...

Oh, so marketing wants
sign-off on the new billboard.

What do you think?

It might be a little
heavy on the Photoshop.

Get me a real F-16.

We'll take some real pictures.

No, they said they don't
have the budget for it.

Fire the marketing department!

You wanna fire the entire
marketing department?

No. I wanna fly a real F-16.
What's next?

I'm supposed to remind you,

Lara's left two messages.

Why is she calling?

Because she's your wife.

I put together
some talking points

for your press conference.

How old are you again?

Twenty-eight.

That's how long I've been
talking to the press.

I'll be fine.

Sir, we're ready.

Why don't you
jump with me today?

Oh, yeah, no.
I just had breakfast, so...

Come on!

Dad, I can't. I can't.

All right.

Chicken!

Good one, Dad.

Yeah!

Very nice, very nice!

Perfect landing.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.
Thank you.

Good morning, everyone.

What an incredible view.

And I mean all of you that I get
to look at this fine morning.

Thank you for coming.

Now, when we open this building

one month from today.

The FireBrand Tower will be the
tallest building in North America.

And that means that we can
finally move out of that dump

we've all been forced to work in
all these years down the block.

Tell us about Chicago.

Mr. Brand, any comment
on the Paragon Tower?

Oh, you mean that tin shack
they're gluing together

over there in Chicago?

No.
No comment on that.

Rumor is they're
beating you by 60 feet.

Well, no. There's not
a chance of that.

No, no. Look, I'd love to
answer more questions,

but I gotta get
back to the office.

All right.
I wanna move fast here.

Have legal
review this overnight.

They're all tied up
with the tower.

Listen, I know we
got to keep him happy,

but we can't let this
building distract us from...

Why? You've got
something better to do?

Oh.

How was the press conference?

Well, apparently
it was a distraction.

I pulled some staff to
explore a public offering.

I'm sorry. Did I ask you
to sell my company?

Are we taking bids?

How much can we get for Gary?

We ran some rough numbers...

Yeah. Well, first, why is the
press asking me about Chicago?

You're winning.
Yours is bigger.

Well, finally
there's our new slogan.

Where are we with
the opening ceremony?

We're gonna rig the entire
building with fireworks.

Oh, so, wait.
When I cut the ribbon...

Fireworks go off.

Oh, my God. Ian,
that is just spectacular,

you know, if we were doing
a Fourth of July celebration

or a really rousing Oktoberfest.

Tom, we can't keep...

Look, we are just
about to cap off

the tallest building
in the Northern Hemisphere

and I can't brag about it
if I don't own it.

Yeah.

This is the distraction.

Okay, everybody, let's pretend
that that didn't just happen.

What's that?
It's a surprise.

For my birthday?

- What are you watching?
- Dad.

Did he tell you to record this?

No, but I just
wanted to see him.

Look.
Watch.

And that means that
we can finally

move out of that dump

we've all been forced to work in

all these years down the block.

How many times have
you watched this?

Um...

Eighty-three.

And now it's 84.

We're worried about costs.

Well, that's why we call
this a "Board meeting."

Please take a message.

- Tom, these are serious concerns.
- I know.

- Look, I understand...
- Lara Brand.

Lara Brand-Oh, no, go ahead.
Just take it outside.

Ian, where's Tom?
I can't get ahold of him.

I can't pry him away
from the Board.

I wanna show you all that I take
your concerns very seriously.

Our operating costs are
up 30% from last quarter.

And my first concern is why is Ian
coming at us with this IPO crap?

He's been
with the Board all day?

It's hard to get
Tom's attention.

Maybe I should join the Board.

Or you can take my job.
Please.

Ian approached us with the idea.

He's put together
a very attractive proposal.

A public offering means
a big payday for all of us.

Now, we've sunk years of revenue
into that building, Tom.

It's time to cash out.

Come on, we got
plenty of cash, don't we?

And why?

Because we built airlines and
retail chains and phone companies,

but no one is gonna
remember any of those

because they
keep changing hands.

But 100 years from now,

when people look out their
windows and they see that tower,

they're gonna see
the name "Brand"

and that's a name
they will never forget.

And that is not something
that I am willing to sell.

We're not running a charity
for your ego, Tom.

Okay. Well, then instead,
let's play a little game.

You know,
just for the fun of it.

Raise your hand if your name
is on the company letterhead.

Tom... No, no. Come on,
we'll just call it a vote.

Tom...
Fifty-one percent!

Feels good to win.

You can sell shares
at my funeral.

And the next time
Ian wants to play CEO,

we can fire him together.

Hey, can I borrow you for a minute?
Not now.

It's about the tower.

I already talked to your dad about this.
We're 100 feet taller.

I know that's the projection.

But that's printed to scale.

Chicago's beating us by 60.

Am I missing something here?
We're taller.

There's too much
steel in their roof.

So?

So that's rated for 760 tons,
and there's nothing on it.

But if they laid
that much steel...

They're not done.

No, that's not in their plans.

They know we have their plans.

They want us to
think we're winning

but they got a permit for that

and they are beating us
by 60 feet.

David!

Right. Keep this quiet.

Oh, Ian, let's make that call to
Madrid before they take their siesta.

Absolutely.

You know, we do have janitors.

Yeah. I've been busy.
I got you something.

OW!

Thanks, Dad.

I'm sorry to break up your
dinner, but I need that report.

Well, tell your wife
the check's on me.

Yeah, but she gets another
anniversary next year

I don't really care.

Oh, excuse me, have you
seen my wife anywhere?

What does she look like?

She is the most beautiful
woman in the entire world.

Oh, well, maybe I have seen her.
Let me see.

Oh, here we go.
Is this her?

Oh, let's give her a call.

Yeah, it was a busy day.
What did I miss?

Uh, my birthday was last month.

You're joking me right now?

You're gonna have to give me
more to work with than that.

Oh, damn it. It's not today?
Tomorrow.

Oh, well, then
I haven't missed it.

Father of the year.

So, what did we get her?

Oh, we didn't get her anything.

You were too busy to talk for five
minutes, so I got her a makeup kit.

Oh, well, couldn't we say that the
makeup kit's from both of us?

No.
Fine.

What should I get her?

Maybe you should
ask her what she wants.

Try getting to know her
a little bit

before she heads off to college.

Come on. I still got
seven years left.

Or, no, six years.
I'm kidding.

Is this how you raised David?

- My son turned out just fine.
- Mmm.

He had to apply for
a job to see his dad.

Well, of course. His
mother got full custody.

I had a terrible lawyer.

When you come
to Rebecca's party...

Look, we are a month away from
opening the tallest building in...

Tom! When you come
to Rebecca's party,

you gotta be here and you have
to bring an exceptional gift.

Daddy!

Hey, baby.

Oh, my goodness.
Those are such fancy pajamas.

Yeah, aren't they?

- They're not pajamas.
- They're not?

But isn't it your bedtime?
What time is her bedtime?

She's coming with us.

Mom says I get
to meet the Mayor.

Really?

Quality father-daughter
bonding time.

Will there be food?

It's $10,000 a plate.

You're gonna eat like a queen.

Will there be pizza?

Yes, $10,000 pizza.

The children's fund has thrived
under the Mayor's leadership.

And to make sure Mayor Edwards
gets something out of it,

he's gonna lower
the voting age to ten.

Everyone asks me why my husband

is hosting a charity event.

The truth is Tom loves children.

He says they make
the best smartphones.

I don't get it.

She just burned your dad. Oh.

They say there is no substitute

for time with your children.

Although, we know, in this
room, money comes close.

And that's why this
charity is so popular.

If you don't have time for kids,

we'll ease your guilt
by taking your dough.

Which is why Tom Brand has
agreed to host this benefit

for the next seven years.

No, no, no.
Five.

So without further ado,
please welcome my husband,

a real pussy cat, Tom Brand.

So, today is the big day.

Have you thought about
what you want?

I want a cat.

Oh, I don't think
our building takes pets.

You own the building.

Wait, didn't you ask for a cat last year?

Yeah, and you got me
a foosball table.

Honey, most kids would kill
for a foosball table.

Yeah, but none of my
friends play foosball.

So, at least if I have a cat,
I can play with the cat.

All right, all right.
I'll make you a deal.

Uh, I will think about it.
How about that? Yes!

Get her jewelry.
Girls love jewelry.

Pull some strings with Apple,

get her a prototype
of the new iPhone.

How about a private concert?

You know what band she is into?
No.

I have a radical suggestion.

Have you tried asking
Rebecca what she wants?

Yes, she wants a cat.

Well, that's in your
price range.

I hate cats.

They puke all over the house.
They shed all over everything.

I got an ex-wife,
a wife and two kids,

I don't need
another thing to feed.

What about a pony?

Could you smile?
It's a party.

Why do we always come here?

They're family.
More or less.

What are you barking at? There are
no squirrels in the elevator.

Here, take him.

Come here.

Just pretend you're having fun.

Seriously?

Come on.

Happy birthday!

I love this yearly ritual

where Tom forgets
Rebecca's birthdays

and you forget that Tom
forgets Rebecca's birthdays.

He kind of remembered.

- You'd have to fire a warning shot.
- Madison!

When Tom and I divorced,
he got the younger model.

I'm blushing.

If he loses you, it's jailbait.

Well, that's romantic.

I want you to call my lawyer.

Do you get a finder's fee?

Lara, the day Tom and I divorced

was the happiest day of my life.

I want that happiness for you.

Come on, help me out before
your hands get all shaky.

This is for the road. I don't
want Tom catching us together.

What's he gonna do?
Divorce you again?

He would if he could.

Are there gonna be
any boys at the party?

No.

You're turning 11, Rebecca.

Now's the time. I could
help you, you know.

Like how my mom helps your mom.

- What?
- Never mind.

I love your room.

Thank you.

My dad actually likes
spending time with me,

so he never has to buy me off.

Come on.
Smile for Instagram.

What if you got her a plush cat?

See, technically, it's a cat.

No, technically, it's not a cat.

Chicago just announced.

Hang on. I got it,
I got it, I got it.

Take a look at Tashirojima,

also known as Cat Island.

Put her up there with a nanny.

Best part, you don't
even have to be there.

That's interesting.

She asks for a cat
every single year.

You can't just buy your way out.

Mr. Brand,
I think the fact that

you've had us put so much
time and thought into this

is really gonna
show her you care.

If you wanna show her
you really care,

just get her what
she really wants.

A cat.

Jeez.

Nearest pet shop, 1. 7 miles.

Damn it.

Recalculating.

In one-tenth of a mile,
make a right turn.

Make a left turn.

You have arrived.

Jeez!

Get away from me.

Shut up.

Hello?
Hello?

- Oh, hello.
- Hi.

You look familiar.
Have we met?

Oh, I doubt it.

I know you from somewhere.

Well, I'm on TV a lot.

Yes! Animal Planet.
I love that show.

No, not Animal Planet.

- I'm Tom Brand. I own FireBrand.
- There you go.

I use newspaper
in the poopy boxes,

and I see your face
all the time.

Look, I'm a little late
for something,

so if we could just get on with it?

- Meow!
- Sure.

You don't like cats,
do you, Mr. Brand?

Look, can I just pick one out?
And then I'll be on my way.

You don't pick a cat.
The cat picks you.

Look, I make million-dollar
decisions for lunch.

I'm pretty sure
I can pick out a cat.

See that?
He likes you.

It figures because he's
attracted to troubled souls.

Used up seven lives already.

Meow, meow, meow,
meow, meow, meow, meow, meow

Meow, meow, meow, meow
Meow, meow, meow

That'll give Chicago the tallest
building in North America

which leaves New York and
FireBrand in second place.

You should pick a bowl.

The company could not
be reached for comment.

But with the opening ceremony
just a month away...

"Mister Fuzzypants."

Yeah. Yeah.
Good.

Good choice.

Yeah.
Could you just wrap it up for me?

Sure.

You know, I get it.

"Brand" because
your name is Brand.

But why "Fire"?
How much do I owe you?

I ask because I did
the same thing, see.

My name is Perkins,

so I call my store
"Purrkins."

Oh, I see there.

We're just like
two peas in a pod.

Yeah.
Keep the change.

Oh, wow.

- You might not wanna take that.
- I'm sorry?

You're running late,
it's a gift.

You don't want to be late.

For the party?

Right.

Ian, what the hell is going on?

Okay, cats.

Let's do this.

Oh, good job.

Happy birthday, baby.
Thank you.

Okay, first piece
for the birthday girl.

And save some for Daddy.

Just put it in the freezer
next to last year's slice.

- Mmm.
- What?

Wait here.

Shut up.

Went with the cat.

Smart move.

Was that news report a joke?

Tom, we can turn this around.

Just look up there.

That antenna's 47 feet.

I spoke to our engineers,

and if we install support
lines, we can raise it up.

That's what they did
at One World Trade.

Stop.
You dragged me across town

and up 1,900 feet
to tell me this?

This is a solution.

- That antenna is...
- Antenna?

I wanted the tallest building,
Ian, not the best reception.

Well, maybe we can
add more floors.

Do you know how much
planning went into this?

To get permission
to build it this height?

You blew it.
We're now standing

on the second tallest
building in North America.

Number two,
because you were busy

trying to sell my company
behind my back.

- Tom...
- Pack up your office!

I'm late. I know.
Stop calling.

Pull me up.
You're firing me?

Take my hand!

That hurt.

BP holding steady.

Okay, let's do this on three.

Ready?

One, two, three.

What about that guy?

Huh, this little guy looks fine.

Wow, that guy looks
worse off than me.

And he's wearing my clothes.

And that's my belt.

Seriously?

It's just a bad dream!

The good news is
your husband made it

through surgery
with no complications,

but he had severe head
trauma and is unresponsive.

You call this unresponsive?

When will he wake up?

Mrs. Brand,
your husband's in a coma.

Once the swelling in the brain is
reduced over the next couple of days,

that's when we're more
likely to see a recovery.

But right now,
he's not in there.

That's because I'm in here!

Lara, listen to me! It's me!

Thank God.
You can hear me.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

No, no, no, no.

Don't leave me back there.

Hey, leave me with me.

Hi.

Hi, baby.

Can I see Daddy?

Well, he is sleeping right
now so he can't talk to us,

but maybe he can hear us.

We'll go in together, okay?

- Come on.
- Shall we see?

Oh, this is so humiliating.

Hey, Lara.
I tried to lift him up,

but I wasn't strong enough.

Judas.
No, it's not your fault.

Whose cat is that?

I think he's yours.

I think your dad got him.
Let's go see.

Daddy got me a cat?

Amazing, isn't it?

I said I'd call.

Hello, someone, anyone.

I'm trapped inside a cat's body.

Somebody help me!

You, in the horrible
green jacket.

So, how are you doin' in there?

The nightmare continues.

Mr. Brand, this is no dream.

You can hear me?
Shh.

I'm a cat whisperer.

And I'm the only one
who can hear you.

What did you do to me?

I didn't do anything.
You fell off a roof.

Fine.
How do I get out of this?

Wrong question.

You should ask,
"How did I get into this?"

Fine!
How did I get into this?

Keep asking that question.

I hope you figure it out.

What does that mean?

Your body won't last long.

If it expires, you're gonna
be stuck in there

for the rest of your life.

You get me out of here,
you son of a...

Calm down, Mr. Brand.

You're a cat.

It's not the end of the world.

I hate cats.

That's what makes
this so perfect.

All right.

Calm down.

I thought Daddy
would get me a kitten.

He is scruffy, isn't he?

What, you want to trade him in.

No!

I didn't think So.

All right, welcome home, cat.

Oh.

Maybe we should
let him get comfortable.

He wants to explore.

Can I sleep with
you tonight, Mommy?

Yeah, kiddo.

I could use the company.

Message.
Let them know I'm me.

Write a message.

Simple.

"Oh, hi, it's Tom.

"Get me out of here."

Just need a few words.

Nothing complicated.

Dear Lara, don't panic.
It's Tom.

I seem to be trapped
in the body of a cat.

This is not a joke.

Your loving husband, Tom.

Okay, that didn't Work.

Although, not bad for a cat.

Ironically, I could really
use a mouse right now.

Mommy, when is Daddy
gonna come home?

Just as soon as he wakes up.

They should use a really big alarm clock.

You'd be a great doctor.

What do you want, kitty?

Money clip,
plus license equals...

I'm stuck in a cat!

He wants to play.

Well, sorry, kitty.
It is bedtime in here.

But we can play tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Okay.

Where were we?

If I'm in a cat's body,

is a cat in my body?

Oh...

I always hated that rug.

Whoa!

This is good scotch.

Rough night?

No.
I was just contemplating

the rest of my life as a cat.

Hmm.

Okay.

Jesus!

Who's hungry?

Oh...

Yum yum.

Looks like a cat
already ate this.

Bon appétit.

French.
That'll sell this stuff.

All right.

There's your litter box.

No, thank you, I have the rug.

I had a really good excuse.

Here come the floodgates.

You probably think I'm crazy
crying over a piece of cake.

Or that your husband's
in the hospital in a coma.

He's gonna wake up.

Right?

Oh, I really gotta
find that Perkins guy.

Hangover!

Hello, kitty.

What should we call you?

Is that your name?
Mister Fuzzypants?

I hate karma.

You're the best gift I ever got

No, too sweet.

That wasn't funny.

What are you two laughing at?

I don't think it's funny.

See, this is my point of view.

We don't need high rises,
we need strategic growth.

And that's what
we've all been saying.

We shouldn't even be
talking about this now.

This isn't a crisis.

This is an opportunity.

What?

What do you need?

If you want food,
it's in the bowl.

Fruity Pebbles

or that?

Fruity Pebbles.

Be the cat, be the cat, be the
cat, be the cat, be the cat!

Graceful.

Yeah?
You try it.

And, nailed it!

I called your mom, too.

I just wanted to
get everyone together.

Well, it smells great.

What are you cooking?

Roast cat.

Maybe its head
got screwed up in the fall.

He's an alcoholic.
I can't get him to eat,

but I found an empty decanter,

of 50-year-old Macallan
with fur all over it.

Well, at least
he has good taste.

Maybe I should mix
scotch into his food.

Can I use
Dad's office for a bit?

Yeah, what's up?

I just want to see
if I can find anything else

that might help me
with this whole Chicago...

Do they make MRIs for cats?

You mean CAT scans?

I should have
landed on the knives.

I'll be in the office.

Hi.

So,

are you like Dad now?

What do you mean?

Are you president
of the company?

No, I'm doing the same job,
just without Dad.

Can you come out soon?

Yeah, in a minute.

You're so totally like Dad.

Lara!

Oh, good!
Satan's over for dinner.

So sorry about Tom. I always
thought it would be skydiving,

or that his secretary
would just snap

and bring an Uzi to the office.

I thought you'd die
from a Botox overdose.

Oh, you brought the dogs.

Princess, Jeanette!

You know Tom's unconscious, right?
You can take the night off.

Yeah, well, someone has
to keep things going.

I never understood why you
wanted to work for him anyway.

Mom, if we could not talk...
Hey.

This isn't healthy.

Chicken soup for grief.

- Mmm.
- Mmm.

Stop it.
Get out of here.

Heel!

Can you please take them away?
They're really scaring him.

They have a very strong sense
about other animals.

- Where'd your dad get him?
- Why?

Well, did he just
pick him up off the streets?

He's just a little messy.

I know you're upset
because your dad's dying...

He's not dying.
He's just unconscious.

My mom says your mom should be more
realistic about his condition.

Princess, Jeanette, heel!

T

O

M.

Tom.

Madison, David, Rebecca, Nicole.

What?

I set a place for Tom.

Well, that's a weird habit. It's not
like he's usually here for dinner.

Madison, not tonight.

I'd say the same thing
if he were here.

Yes, that's why
nobody likes you.

But there's a reason
you've been seeing Josh.

Josh?

Oh, I can't even think
about that right now.

Now's the perfect time.
It's not like Tom could catch you.

Who needs a litter box?

Oh, Madison?
I've been a bad kitty.

Hey!
You...

oh...

Cheese!

Sorry, everybody.

- Wait.
- What?

Nothing, I just thought I saw...
Nothing. It's okay.

Lara, that cat needs
to be put down.

Hey!

I'll buy you a new bag, Madison.

Hire a trainer, a cat
whisperer, I don't care.

Let's get you a new martini.

Yes.

Well, someone's gotta
talk about the empty chair.

Should we do toasts?
It's not a wake, Mom.

This isn't Tom's
first time in the hospital.

Remember when he
launched the airline?

He was always
on the phone, never slept.

You know what you asked me?

Vampire.

Why is Daddy a vampire?

Because Mommy sucked
all his blood.

He'd stay awake
all night working out,

and then one day, he just fell
asleep on a moving treadmill.

He was in the hospital
for a week.

Best vacation I ever had.

I'd wake up and find him
on the balcony at 4:00 a.m.

just staring at his tower.

I'll say this for Tom.

There was never another woman.

With me, it was an airline.

With you, it's a big skyscraper.

Ignore everything
you hear tonight.

I'm not a role model, Rebecca.

You're used to it.

How about that toast?
Mmm-hmm.

To Dad. Wake up soon.
We miss you.

Or your tower misses you.

Sleep well?

Rebecca Alison Brand, your cat
destroyed the yellow pages!

What's a yellow pages?

That cat you got,

he's lucky you're in here

or you'd have killed him by now.

I got a plan to beat Chicago.

I just need to sell it
to the Board.

When you wake up,
we might be number one.

We're doing
the best that we can do.

Okay.
Thank you so much.

What are you doing here?

Sprained my wrist. That's why I
couldn't hold on to your Dad.

You're seeing my Dad's
neurologist about your wrist?

The Board needs
updates on his status.

So ask me.

We're not going to take medical
advice from the grieving son.

It's a massive transition
for the company.

What transition?

Big day at the office.
Good luck with the Board.

We're losing by that much.

We get 70 feet,
we're number one.

Now, our structure
can't support another floor,

and unfortunately we can't just
smuggle a wrecking ball into Chicago,

so we need to shed weight.

I thought we were
making it taller.

We lose one floor,

it buys us this.

That's gonna collapse.

Not if we use titanium.

Why don't we just
build it out of gold?

It's as strong as steel
and half the weight.

I don't know what problem
you're trying to solve here.

Excuse me?

This is a stack of prime
real estate in Manhattan.

We can't charge rent
on a jungle gym.

My father didn't build
the tallest skyscraper

in the Northern Hemisphere
for a little rent money.

It's not the tallest skyscraper.

Because you screwed up.

Hmm.

Look. If Tom were here, you know
this is exactly what he would do.

I appreciate that you want
to honor your father, David.

We need to watch the books.

Our company can't keep diverting
funds into Tom's pet projects.

It's his company.

Thank you, David.

He's not dead.

- Meow.
- Meow.

You wanna try?

You wanna try?

Lord help me.

Okay, let's try "A purse
is not a litter box."

A purse is not a litter box.

Mr. Fuzzypants was the last
thing her father gave her,

so she's really latched on.

Mmm. He wants
attention, obviously.

This is our daughter, Rebecca.
Hello.

You are going to tell
them every word I say.

Good move.
Nice.

You try it.

Your dad bought this cat at my store.
Did you know that?

Who cares?
Just translate.

I remember, he said he wanted you
to have exactly what you asked for.

Hey, cat freak, I didn't call
you down here to ignore me.

Could we have
a moment of privacy, please?

You and the cat?

Yeah.
Okay.

You don't have
time for games, Mr. Brand.

Tell them who I am.

I'm not your press agent.

Well, you're a cat whisperer,

and I'm pretty sure
I'm still a cat!

Have you asked yourself

how you got into this position?

I tried googling it,
but you know,

they don't make
keyboards for paws!

You're acting like a beast and
you're driving your family crazy.

These doctors can't
keep you alive forever,

so if you want to get out of
this, you have to behave.

And if your human body goes,
get used to those paws.

You'll be a cat forever.

I am not eating cat food.

You'll eat cat food or else.

Oh, I'm 10 pounds
and covered in fur.

What else could you
possibly do to me?

This cat has not been fixed.

Don't you dare.

Oh, should I take him
to the vet?

Perkins...
Let's wait.

- If you so much as lay a
finger on... He's made progress.

He's gonna be better now.

If he's not eating his food,
using his poopy box,

give me a call.
I'll clip him myself.

You hear that, Fuzzypants?

I am the sixth richest
person in Manhattan!

A well-behaved pet

brings love and
comfort to a home.

And your family
needs that right now,

so are you gonna behave?

You need to be a cat.

Okay, I'll be a cat.

Behave.

No clipping.

All the best.

All the best.

Who needs to be fixed?

Yes, letting salmon breathe all
day really brings out the flavor.

Lord, help me.

How do cats eat this stuff?

Ah... I can't.

I'm starving.

Come on. Come on, Fuzzypants,
you can do it. Come on.

Hold it, hold it still.

Hold it still,
hold it, hold it still.

Is this supposed to be fun?

Yeah.

Just drown me.

Well, that's an improvement.

Look.

Seriously?

Good kitty.

Public humiliation.

Hi, Josh.

Josh?

I got something
I have to show you.

Look, I can't keep doing this.

No, I'm not taking no for an answer.
I'm already on my way.

Yeah, I'm not gonna...

I'll text you the address, okay?

Don't even think about it.

Come on, get out of there.
I gotta get going.

Let's go.

Missing something?

Here, kitty. Here, kitty.
Here, kitty. Here, kitty.

Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.

On!

Sorry, honey.

Kitty, kitty.
Come on, kitty, kitty.

Of all the cats in the world,

of course Tom picked you.
You're just like him.

That's what I've been
trying to tell you.

Stubborn and selfish
and shedding.

But here's the difference.

I'm legally barred
from castrating my husband.

Drop 'em.

Good kitty.

Nailed it!

Excuse me, who are you?

Who are you?

None of your business.

We've only got
one day in Ohio, so...

You're selling the company.
I'll call you back.

You're cutting the books,
you're lining up a roadshow,

and you got Goldman Sachs camped
out in the conference room.

We're taking FireBrand public.

With the CEO in a coma?
The odds that he recovers...

When he wakes up...
If.

He is gonna fire
every single one of you.

Calculated risk.

David, when this deal goes through,
your family makes billions.

Just take the money. You
don't owe Tom Brand a thing.

Hi, Josh.

This is pretty.

It's gorgeous, right?

He's an Abercrombie model?

Wait till you see this view.

- Hi, Josh.
- Hi.

We need to talk.

Let's talk inside.

No, let's just do it out here.

Where, in the grass?

I know that we've been
at this for months,

and you must be anxious
for some kind of decision.

I can't keep seeing you.

Lara, just take a look at...

Mr. Fuzzypants?

Seriously?

What are you doing here?

You know, getting out of the
city is really great for a pet.

And this place just went
on the market today.

Market? I can't
look at any more houses.

What?

When Madison introduced us,

she said you were ready to buy.

I thought I was.

New house, new job,
I was ready to leave Tom.

She was leaving me.

So, what's changed?

Well, what's changed is
I have this shaggy gremlin,

and even when he's stalking me,

he's a constant reminder, the last
thing Tom did was for his daughter,

and I love him.

And I love you.

I need to go.
I never stopped.

Are you happy now?

Not until you are.

- Dr. Cole.
- Uh-oh.

Bad news?

Rebecca, I was just
visiting Daddy.

He is still sleeping.

He's getting better,
though, right?

His body is getting better,

but he's been sleeping so long,

Dr. Cole doesn't know
if he's gonna wake up.

But he could.

He could.

Morn, then it's gonna be okay.

Dad's been working so hard,
he just needs extra sleep.

Three cool cats

Three cool cats

Parked on the corner
in a beat-up car

Dividing up a nickel candy bar

Talking all about
how sharp they are

These three cool cats

I'm so sorry, baby.

Not now.

Three cool chicks

Walkin' down the street
Swingin' their hips

Splitting up a bag
of potato chips

And three cool cats
did three big flips for

Three cool chicks

Up popped the first cool cat
He said, "Man, look at that!

"Man, do you see what I see?"

"I want that middle chick!"
"I want that little chick!"

"Hey, man,
save one chick for me!"

Three cool chicks

Three cool chicks

They look like angels
from up above

And three cool cats
really fell in love

But three cool chicks
made three fools of these

Three cool cats

Three cool cats

What?

Three cool cats

What's wrong?

Oh, boy.

I'm an idiot.

I should have been a better dad.

Hey.

My mom said you needed
company right now,

so I'm volunteering my time.

I kind of wanna
be alone right now.

You should go wash your face.

Crying really doesn't work
with your complexion.

She's a wreck.

Hey!

Your stupid cat took my...

Why would you share this?

I wanted to show some boys.

If they see you
when you're vulnerable,

they'll wanna
take care of you and...

You sent this one
to half our class.

That was a joke.

You know what,
my dad is in the hospital.

Explain the joke to me.

I was just trying to help.

That's what friends do.

You know what, my mom is
friends with your mom,

and I see you over here a lot,

but stop pretending, Nicole.

We're not friends!

I can't believe
you just did that!

Ugh! Good work, but why
did you grab her phone?

Because I'm your daddy.

Ew!

Livanto, round and balanced.

I can't play,
Mr. Fuzzypants.

That was the right answer.

If this is what it takes
to become human,

I will be the best cat
that ever lived.

Hey, I brought something
that's gonna wake you up.

An invitation
to the grand opening

of the tallest lightning rod

in the Northern Hemisphere.

I miss sharing things
with you, Tom.

That's why you need to wake up.

I'm not going to this
thing without a date.

Are you figuring this out?

Hey. I just want another
look at Dad's files.

Okay.

Is everything all right?

They locked up
investors this morning.

FireBrand's going to the
New York Stock Exchange.

When?

They're announcing it
when they open the tower.

Ian totally went behind our back.

He's lined up Benson and Stein
and the rest of the Board

in a secret deal.

Turns out, Ian's been working
on this plan for months

and was waiting
for the right time.

Tom would kill them.

They don't care.

Did he leave any
directives or anything?

Uh, there's a will,
but he's not dead.

Yeah, I know,
I know. I know.

I just hope there's
something in here

that'll help me
fight this thing.

Damn.
I'm everywhere.

David Brand.

You're gonna need a raise.

But first,
let's give you a promotion.

David's pulling files from legal.
He's gonna fight this.

As long as we get to
market, he can't do anything.

Articles of incorporation.
Where are they?

I did find this in Tom's desk.

He left all his
voting shares to David.

Did the audit find
anything like this?

No.

David knows.
He has to know.

If he knew, we wouldn't be here.

I never saw Tom hug David.

I'm not much of a hugger.

He's got him working
out of that broom closet.

I keep wanting to
call Child Services.

Yo!

Well then,

I never saw this.
Did you?

Never

We all appreciate the way
you've handled this situation.

If Tom doesn't pull through,
we want you to take the helm.

- Okay, thank you.
- Hmm.

- Hang in there.
- Yeah.

Hey, Mom.

I hand you the keys to a
multi-billion dollar company

and you call your mother?

Do you still have the files
from the divorce?

Oh, yeah.

Princess, Jeanette, shut it!

All of the company records for
the first 10 years are in here.

Should probably get rid of this
stuff, but it makes me nostalgic.

- For Dad?
- His money.

Well, at least you got half.

I don't know how he did it,
building this company from scratch.

He never came home.
That's how he did it.

Why are you doing this?

Are you waiting for
him to say, "Good job"?

'Cause your father is
never gonna give you that.

- What's this?
- Well...

What?

When your father
was just starting off,

he couldn't think of
a name for the company,

and then one day,
you drew a picture of him.

He was never there,
but he loved you.

It's your company, too.

You named the damn thing.

It's rare for a company
to be so interested in a patient.

Tom wasn't just a boss,
he was a friend.

I want to know
how he's doing.

He could wake up tomorrow,
he could stay like this forever.

We really don't know.

- Well, what are the odds?
- It's hard to say.

At this point, less than 1%?

If you've done your research,
I don't know what else you want.

I'm concerned that you're
giving his wife false hope.

I told her we don't know.

Well, you know, that makes it sound
like it could go either way.

I can't tell her what to do.

I just want you
to tell her the truth.

Dragging this out
is so hard on this family.

Just think about it.

Lara, you're so beautiful.

Did I tell you often enough?

On.

I just wanna say that I'm...

I'm sorry.

Hello, there.
Come here.

I'm not in the mood
for crazy tonight.

Good boy.

I guess this isn't easy for you, huh,
Mr. Fuzzypants?

Meeting a family like this?

Do you need a cuddle?

Somebody need a cuddle tonight?

Okay.

This is a special treat
just for us.

Don't tell.

Sadly, I've got no one to tell.

How does that feel, huh?

Very, very sad.

Good night.

I love you.

Lara.

Lara, wake up.

Are you trying to be
my hairdresser?

Hello?

Send him right up.

Do you have a company to sell?

No, the tower opening's tonight

and I didn't see
your name on the list.

I'm not getting out much.

We'd love to have you.

I'm sure you would.

Lara, we all miss Tom very much.

And maybe it's not my place to
say this, but you have to know.

He's not coming back.

Mom?

Go back to your room, Rebecca.

What is he talking about?

Just get ready for school,
okay, sweetie?

You don't know what
you're talking about.

The doctors say he has a chance.

I understand.
If I were you,

I would do anything
to keep him alive.

But this could go on for months.
I can wait.

Or years.
And he never wakes up.

And Rebecca, she needs to mourn,

she can't do that
if she's waiting

for a father
who's never coming home.

Ian, don't...

No!
Oh!

Get this off of me!

Please!
Get this beast off of me.

All right, in the cage.

What did I do?

You are going into the cage.

That cat is feral, and you
need to take it to the pound.

This is a brand new suit!

He just clawed you
before I could.

Lara...
lam not an idiot.

You're not here
because you care about me

or about Rebecca or about Tom.

And I am not unplugging my husband
to help your bottom line.

Bye, Mom. Oh, wait, honey,
I'll walk you to school.

No, it's okay, Mom. It's only a
couple of blocks and I'm 11.

Okay.

I understand.
You want to protect Rebecca.

And I want to protect
the company.

But we both need the same thing.

Goodbye, Ian.

Where's my dry cleaning?

Mr. Cox, you're
scheduled at the tower.

Yeah, I know.
Tell the Board I'm running late.

Oh, they're in Mr. Brand's office.
What?

But I moved up your meeting
with the event planner.

Why aren't you at the tower?

- You called a meeting.
- I didn't call a meeting.

David called the meeting.

Were you gonna tell me?

He said he just
needed the Board.

You figured it out.

Where's the Board?

I sent them ahead to the tower.

Sorry they missed your meeting.

That's okay.
We'll do it there.

We're gonna have a little vote.

Yeah, you know, you're not
going to the opening.

Really? Yeah. Mr. Brand
no longer works for us.

He's right.
I own the company.

Not yet. Please escort
him off the property.

Don't touch me.

Ian, you do this, I will come
at you with an army of lawyers.

Go ahead.
Sue me.

Do it tomorrow
when we're both rich.

Do you really think you can steal
FireBrand with a couple of bouncers?

And you think you can stop me
with a note from Daddy?

Your father's dying.
You lost his company.

At the end of the day,
you're not Tom Brand.

Look who's back.

I knew you'd be back.

Look who's here.

What can I do for you,
birthday girl?

I want you to take the cat back.

What's he done?

He's been great.
It's just...

I think they might
wanna take him away

and maybe he'd be
better off back here.

I get returns all the time.

Some cats just don't take
to their new family.

When I met your father,
I hoped it would work out.

I know it's stupid,
but sometimes I feel

like my dad's looking out
for me through the cat.

You miss him.

I do.
I love my dad so much.

And he loves you,

but it's not enough
to say you love someone.

You have to show it.
Sometimes,

love means sacrifice.

You have to show it.

When you came to the house,
you were talking to him.

It's what I do.
I'm a cat whisperer.

Yeah, but you were talking
to him like he was a person.

Is this cat my dad?

Perkins, listen.
You have to tell her.

- What do you think?
- Well,

he makes me feel like my dad's still
around more than he ever was before.

Sometimes,

I almost wish my daddy
was more like the cat.

But I really just want
my daddy back.

Excuse me a minute.

I'm gonna show you something.

I'll be right back.

Wait.

You should stay with us.

A cat's life is so much better.

Thanks, but no thanks.

We're cold, selfish,
and people still love us.

That's not who I wanna be.

Three cool cats

Three cool cats

May I have this dance?

Parked on the corner
in a beat-up car

Dividing up a nickel candy bar

Talking all about
how sharp they are

These three cool cats

Three cool chicks

Clear.

Rebecca's gonna kill me.

Hello.

"I want that middle chick!"
"I want that little chick!"

"Hey, man,
save one chick for me!"

Three cool chicks

Three cool chicks

Hey, everything all right?

And three cool cats
really fell in love

But three cool chicks
made three fools of these

Three cool cats

Three cool cats

You still wanna return the cat?

No.

If you want your dad back,
you should get going.

I think he might be
running out of time.

Dad, when they open
the tower tonight...

Get down.

We're not seeing any
cerebral activity at all.

I just don't want to
give you false hope.

There's a possibility
he's not coming back.

Mom, Dad's still here.

Can you give us a minute?

You know how the cat's
been acting funny?

Well, that's because it's Dad.

Rebecca...
Listen, I can prove it.

Let's talk outside.

Come on.

Mom, I'm not making it up.

Oh, look, I know how you feel.
I miss him, too.

You'll see, Mommy.
He's really alive in the cat.

I screwed up, Dad.

What are you talking about?

I spent my whole life waiting for a
sign that I was making you proud.

When I finally got it,

I let you down.

I lost everything.

I can't live with that.

I don't know if you're
still in there,

but you won't wanna miss this.

'Cause I'm gonna
take my first jump.

And my last jump
right off of that tower.

No, David!

Goodbye, Dad.
I love you.

So how does this work?

You'll need to sign a DNR.

DNR?

They're pulling the plug on me?

And then we'll take out
the respirator.

Daddy.

Mom, remember how me and Dad
used to dance together?

Yeah. Just watch, okay?
We'll show you, okay?

Daddy, come here.

Daddy.
Daddy.

We need to show Mommy our dance.

Come here.

Daddy.

Love means sacrifice.

Love means sacrifice.

Daddy!
Daddy!

I'm spending the rest
of my life in a litter box.

Daddy.

Daddy!

Daddy! Daddy, come here!
We have to show her!

- Daddy! Daddy! What are you doing?
- My baby.

Oh, honey, I'm sorry.

Thank you.
Isn't she beautiful?

1,900 feet of glass and steel.

Now, you can tell
I'm a bit of a numbers guy,

so, for me, this tower's
more than a legacy.

Its 2.8 million square feet
of pristine office space.

Before I even cut a ribbon,

we've leased 65% of the
tallest building in New York.

And we're already in
negotiations for the rest of it.

We can be so much more.

But this company is greater
than the sum of its parts.

Beyond real estate,
in the last year,

we've enjoyed record earnings.

Global retail.

But before we move on
with our big announcement,

we have a special guest who'd
like to say a few words.

Please welcome Mayor Edwards.

Thank you, Ian.

New York...

We're gonna tell Daddy
how much we love him.

David?

- I like to take a moment of...
- Hey.

Wake up in there.
Let me in.

For the dreamer
who made all this possible.

Tom Brand.

Now I'm gonna turn
this back to Mr. Cox.

We all wish Tom was here, but
someone's gotta cut the ribbon.

Oh, come on!

Wait!

Thank goodness you found him.

That thing is yours?

That's Mr. Fuzzypants.
He keeps escaping.

What kind of name is Fuzzypants?

Please.

Thank you.

You little Houdini.

He won't bother you anymore.
I promise.

He tried to scratch me.

That must have been
so scary for you.

Fuzzypants.

Thank you.

That was some bold move you
made back there, Mr. Brand.

Thank you, Perkins.

If it was me,

I'd have stayed at the hospital.

Guess I'm moving into your shop.

No,

'cause you're not gonna make it.

What? Wait!

Wait, this is the best part.

Whoa!

Whoa!

Whoa.

- Should we call animal control?
- No.

We got Tasers.

Right.
Let's do this.

All right, kitty,
just stand still.

The sad thing is
I'll never get to fire you.

We're gonna break the Internet.

Sorry!
Sorry!

Did you have to set it to boil?

Look, you idiot!

Oh, God.

We got a man on the roof. We are
gonna need fire, paramedics...

And animal control.

We got a man on the roof.
We got a man on the roof.

Who's on the roof?

He's going to jump!

David.

Don't even think about it.

Sir, get down from there.

Step away from the ledge.

David, wait!

Oh.

Mr. Fuzzypants?

- My son...
- Whoo.

You were a man all along.

Meow, that hurt.

- Tom? Tom?
- Dad.

Oh, baby.
Oh, I missed you so much.

Well, it's good to see
Tom's spirit alive and well.

As soon as security
takes care of this...

Come on.

Whoo!

Good evening, everybody.

So, I hear Ian doesn't want
to talk about Chicago.

You know, we may not have
the tallest building,

but we do have
the tallest building

anyone has ever BASE jumped off.

Let's hear it for David Brand.

And I'm proud to announce
that tomorrow, FireBrand...

FireBrand has always been
a family business

and nothing is going
to change that.

I see the Board's all here.

Let's take a vote.

Fifty-one percent
against going public.

- And you're fired.
- Good luck.

Thank you very much!

Ian Cox, ladies and gentlemen.

Give the little guy a hand.

Lara?

David.
David, he's awake.

- Yep.
- Your dad's awake.

Okay, I'll be right there.

Welcome back, Dad.

No, I can handle the SEC.

- Just get me on the phone with Goldman...
- Sir...

- You might want to hang up.
- Excuse me?

You're not going to like
where this call is going.

Thank you.
Sorry, some nutcase.

Listen, we can still
take him to court.

Ian...

Ian?

Gotta be honest.

I don't know how you're
gonna get out of this.

I hate cats.

That's what makes
this so perfect.

You probably want to hear
that I've learned something,

that I've changed...

Well, I still think
cats are horrible beasts

that would eat you in your
sleep if they ran out of food.

They're selfish animals.
That's for sure.

But I'm not one of them.

Not anymore.

Be quiet.
Shush.

Mr. Brand.

You look like a new man.

What can I do for you?

I know we can't
replace Fuzzypants,

but we were wondering...

If you have any dogs.

No.

But only yesterday,
an old friend stopped by.

Used up eight of his lives,

and he tells me

he'd like to spend his last life

with you.

Fuzzypants.

So, that's a no
on the dog, then.
