comet and hilde, in,  i will not Chase Cats.

 repeat after me. i, comet, will not chase cats.

 what if the cat clearly wishes to be chased?

 well, the title of this seminar is i will not Chase Cats, there is no subtitle.

 i will not chase cats during lessons.

 yes, i forgot the period, but it's implied. it means, i will not chase cats, period.

 the import of the lesson starts to sink in.

 it does seem all the lessons are on what NOT to do.

 but that's just an illusion. by the time you get sick of hearing about what NOt to do, you'll be grateful to do what i tell you to do.

 i think i understand. you want to control me.

 yes! you got it. good boy comet.
