102 Dalmatians-An Animated Version with Different Characters

I Ate What?!!!

That same evening at the Sefton apartment, Kimberly and Patch were munching on their favorite sweet treats, sugar cookies and dog biscuits, when the news story about 'Ella' and the services she planned to provide for 'Give a Dog Another Chance at a Home' dog shelter while performing her required community service. Needless to say, it was quite a disturbing news story for the two to have been watching in the first place. A reporter interviewed Miss De Vil as she stood beside Raymond with a few of the shelter dogs in the background.

Reporter: So, could you tell us how Cruella De Vil became plain Ella?

Patch made a comment of his own in his native tongue as he watched his former dog-napper go through her interview on the Telly.

Patch: Plain 'Ella'? I'll believe that when entire pig farm populations fly.

Obviously not having heard a word of what Patch had said about her as he barked both because she was on the Telly and because he was just a dog, Miss De Vil was only all too happy to explain away how she had reformed herself from Cruella into just 'Ella'.

Cruella 'Ella' De Vil/Estella von Hellman: Well, I certainly can. It was all thanks to Dr. Soren Strabane and his therapy.

Meanwhile back in the Sefton apartment, Kimberly was so focused on watching her newest probational assignment's interview with the press that the normally hyperaware brunette had uncharacteristically failed to notice that she had grabbed a dog biscuit from Patch's treat bowl instead of one of her favorite sugar cookies for which she had clearly aimed while binging herself on them. Of course, patch had his own comment to say in his native canid tongue to his owner about which kind of sweet treat she had grabbed.

Patch: Hey! That's one of my dog biscuits you just grabbed, Kimmy. Put it back in my treat bowl, if you don't mind.

Of course, the reporter on the Telly, however, only continued to ask his questions to Miss De Vil as the interview went on further.

Reporter: And do you really think that you, a convicted dog-napper, are the right person to run this establishment?

That was when Patch basically disregarded the dog biscuit of his that his normally super observant brunette owner, Kimberly, absent-mindedly took from out of his treat bowl, and devoted all of his attention at the time to the Telly going further forward.

Patch: Finally, someone has even a lick of sense in their head about the devil woman's cure possibly being nothing but a ruse.

As the interview continued, however, 'Ella' had an answer to such a sensitive question, too.

Meanwhile in the Sefton apartment, much to Patch's shock and concern while he and his brunette owner ate their sweet treats, however, he suddenly watched as Kimberly actually bit into and ate a part of the dog biscuit which she had absent-mindedly took from his treat bowl in place of her own plate of sugar cookies.

Patch: Oh, Kimmy, tell me that you didn't just do what I think you did with my dog biscuit.

Cruella 'Ella' De Vil/Estella von Hellman: 'Give a Dog Another Chance at a Home' says it all.

Then, Miss De Vil said the last thing in the interview about the dog shelter for which she planned to provide in the near future that everyone watching had doubtlessly expected to hear from her, of all people in London, especially Kim and her male dog, Patch.

Cruella 'Ella' De Vil/Estella von Hellman (continued): And I think I deserve another chance, too. Don't you?

It had even qualified as twisting the very words in the dog shelter's name around to suit her own needs and wants for another chance at redemption in the public eye. It also came across as slightly narcissistic.

Just as Kimberly turned off her Telly, she replied to 'Ella's own desperate beg for another chance.

Kimberly 'Kim/Kimmy' Sefton: No, I do not! She tricked me!

Then upon finally taking the time to look at what sat in her hand, Kim suddenly started to gag as soon as she realized she ate a piece of one of Patch's own dog biscuits.

Kimberly 'Kim/Kimmy' Sefton (continued): I think I'm gonna be sick!

When he was finally concerned about her enough to rush her to her apartment's own kitchen, Patch tried to calm Kim down about her present problem in his own native canid tongue.

Patch: There, there, Kimmy! It'll be fine! Just go to the kitchen for some water to get the taste of my dog biscuit out of your mouth. And next time, I'd look at what you're holding before you bite into it.

Of course, Patch meant well at the time for him. It was still a rather insensitive remark, however, even as some of the best advice. Patch also had his own question he wished Kim could have been able to understand that he had to ask his brunette owner.

Patch (continued): Why did you take my dog biscuit, Kimmy? You can usually pay better attention to your surroundings. It's very unlike you to be so oblivious to anything around you. I guess that having to look after the devil woman has messed with your senses more than I could've ever thought possible. I hope you find a way to get back to yourself.

Patch just took Kim to the loo after she got her water, which had only helped slightly to get the taste of his dog biscuit out of her mouth. She leant over the loo and vomited like someone who had just eaten some nature of a spider's poison. Of course, Patch just rubbed Kimberly's back with his left paw and continued helping her with the realization that came to her too late that she actually ate one of his dog biscuits.
