Three scientists \u2014 Papaia, Banani, and Ravioli\u2014 and their assistant Igor, who work at NASAL, begin to take an interest in creationism. Their superiors, concerned, send them to a psychologist, Professor Faggioli, a questionable character determined to get them fired by making them seem insane.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re in Professor Faggioli\u2019s office, where Raviolino is talking about his childhood, when he used to hide his after-school fish in his backpack to avoid eating it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ravioli was telling the story of the cat that always managed to find the fish in his backpack, no matter where he hid it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ravioli: Anyway, one day I hid the backpack on top of the bookshelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faggioli: An unreachable spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raviolino: Not for the cat. This time it was more disastrous than usual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faggioli: Go on\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We flash back to the moment of the episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re in Raviolino\u2019s living room. It\u2019s Thursday evening, and Dad walks in and approaches the bookshelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raviolino (to himself): On top of the bookshelf! Perfect. Let\u2019s see if that cat can get there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad grabs a book from the shelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad: Finally, some peace and a good book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He sits in an armchair, right under the bookshelf.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad: Nothing good on TV tonight. Better dive into something serious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raviolino sits nearby, worried. Silence. Faint noises from above. Dad keeps reading. Scratching sounds are heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cat appears at the top of the bookshelf. Its little paws work their way into the backpack, unzipping it. Bits of fish start to fall to the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raviolino: Oh no! I don\u2019t believe it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A piece of rotten fish lands on his dad\u2019s head. Dad scratches it off, letting it fall to the floor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad: These flies! Didn\u2019t we use bug spray?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raviolino sneaks in quietly, trying not to be noticed. He watches the cat fussing with the backpack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raviolino (to himself): No… no… it\u2019s making too much noise…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another piece falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mom (from another room): What\u2019s that noise?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad: Nothing, honey. Just a curious cat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raviolino (whispers): I have to do something… fast…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Igor: Raviolino just wanted to hide that putrid backpack from the cat! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heh heh! But he ended up placing it right two meters above his clueless dad\u2019s head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poor Raviolino! Now the cat was about to expose all his lies for everyone to see\u2026 and bring his whole castle of deception crashing down on him\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026while a pound and a half of moldy cod was about to come crashing down, right on his dad\u2019s bald spot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
