And so it was that after a beverage break Happy Puppy KEE-RA follows a hunch to the garage…
A continuation of this…
Let’s listen in to find out WHAT. HAPPENS. NEXT… —The Gang
FADE IN:
INT. MEREDITH’S HOUSE – GARAGE
Upon entering the garage, Kee-Ra realizes he’s got some challenges ahead. There’s some light from inside the house, but not enough to truly see Former Suit KATIE’s JEEP which is parked there.
KEE-RA
Think, Kee-Ra! Think…!
He paces around the house a bit and then has a…
DING!Thing moment…
KEE-RA
Might. Could. Work…
What he’s referring to is the spare garage door remote that his human, MEREDITH keeps by the front door.
KEE-RA
All I gots to do is… Knock it on the ground and press.
So Kee-Ra, channeling his inner [Wonder / Wander || Wander / Wonder Kat] MR SQUEEK’s leaping abilities, after several tries, indeed gets the garage open.
KEE-RA
Woo-hoo! Now I gotta be quick as it is possible Mama will be alerted which triggers cams AND…
Leaving that thought to evaporate into the air, Kee-Ra returns to the garage and leverages the opportunity to memorize his eyes, the setup on Katie’s Jeep –> which they’ve been taking out on Duckin’ adventures.
Kee-Ra smiles thinking about riding shotgun and even seat-belted in the backseat where he can really feel the wind on his fur.
KEE-RA
Ah! I see here the wavyWaveDuckin’ and the wavyWaveYOSH!! hanging out with that little cutout Duckie.
Left Tail Light…
KEE-RA
On the black Jeep… the colours stand out for sure.
His eye look towards the interior of the Jeep where he notices another one of the cutout Duckies along with…
KEE-RA
Look at that…! It’s a mini-wavyWaveDuckin’ along with another of the cutouts. Visible from here but…
Near Rear-view Mirror…
He hops up into the Jeep and takes his position in the back seat to study some more.
… F–U–N… FUN !!
KEE-RA
Kinda dig it… F-U-N- FUN!! Sharing Duckin’ joy and having it also be a reminder to… embrace the joy…
He stops to thinks some…
KEE-RA
So the cutout one … yellow guy… looks cool, but I seem to recall there was an issue of some sort…
Pacing…
KEE-RA
Ah! Right… The magnet being tiny. I little tiny circle… not very strong…
Small magnet…
KEE-RA
And in a Jeep that IS an issue as bumpity-bumpity is “par for the course” as they say.
He pauses and does a sort of REWIND [<<] in his mind.
KEE-RA
Mama said something… Oh… That this is really a refrigerator magnet… but then again, THAT TINY?
Now studying the juxtaposition near the rear view mirror.
KEE-RA
Interesting… Seems like there’s barely enough surface area to hold… like what is that? A two-incher? Guess we’ll test and see if it holds.
Kee-Ra hops out of the Jeep and makes his way back into the house where he applies pressure to the remote and listens while the garage door shuts.
KEE-RA
Cool! Now, of course, there’ll be some ‘splaining to do as to why the remote is on the entryway floor.
He pauses and then smiles.
KEE-RA
Gremlins! I’ll blame Gremlins and then divert her attention to… JEEP ADVENTURE!! A sunset cruise, if you will…
After paw-bumping himself, he looks at the clock.
KEE-RA
The SQUEEKSTER will be back soon, so I better do more memorizing my eyes before the RAZR disappears.
His attention returns to the phone where he looks at LOTS of pictures.
KEE-RA
K-So… Here are a batch of ones related to that wavyWave design.
Side-by-side with that white Duckin’ one… the winner is clearly wavyWAVE and … it says here, QR code on that white one was a FAIL.
Kee-Ra continues to play and then stops as he plays through images in his mind’s eye.
Duckin’ Magnet (w/o QR)…
KEE-RA
I get it… Now the discussion has shifted to SIZE… 3×3 or 2×2 or… BOTH?!?
Then he swipes to find a message from RC recommending field testing for size and placement.
…an excuse to do more drive-abouts… Jeep Adventures!
KEE-RA
Woo-hoo for us! An excuse to do more drive-abouts… Jeep Adventures!
After doing his version of SNOOPY-DANCIN’ he looks at the clock and gets back to swiping away. That’s when he comes upon a series showing magnets on other vehicles. He smiles.
KEE-RA
Ah! Now it gets more interesting as this was something I was wondering… Why limit the unexpected joy of Duckin’ to Jeeps??
KEE-RA
This Kona edition… looks cool! Shows well…! Plus… Kinda diggin’ the left-side placement…
Studies the pictures some more.
KEE-RA
Driver Side…maximizes visibility if you…
Kee-Ra closes his eyes and imagines himself in Meredith’s driver seat.
KEE-RA
Yup! Stuck at a light or in traffic… This gives a something pleasant to look at PLUS…
More swiping back-and-forth…
KEE-RA
This shows flexibility by using magnets — you can move to where you like on the vehicle… We’ve talked ‘bout this on our excursions… stickers = STUCK!!
Stickers & Magnets…
KEE-RA
Not horrible as these are kinda fun but… I noticed on the top of the bumper are a couple of companies that are no longer in business. Would be nice to have the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions and attitudes, right?
[HYDRATION BREAK]
And indeed, Kee-Ra went to his “watering hole” and enjoyed some refreshment. Looking up suddenly, he made a beeline for the RAZR and started swiping again. Then a HUGE(er) smile as…
Truck…!
More Truck…!
KEE-RA
Gotta hurry up and get this RAZR back into the planter but…
Let me… Oh…! WHOA!!
Flexi-Experiment…
KEE-RA
Looks like they’ve been running a FLEXI experiment with Gear Guy’s truck too!
He studies the pictures from GEAR GUY’s truck.
KEE-RA
I can see… literally… the point of having the YOSH!! near the AWD and on his FOREST MIST truck, it POPS!!
KEE-RA
As for the DragonBustR… Huh… Legacy I guess… sorta works as it is facing the Ridgeline Badge but… All of these feel like they should be surrounding the HONDA “H” in the center…
Looking at legacy…
DISSOLVE TO:
EXT. MEREDITH’S HOUSE
I bit on overload, Kee-Ra retires to his sunny spot in the back yard — after placing the RAZR in the planter for Mr Squeek’s retrieval.
As he settles in for his snooze, he says to himself.
…Now to hang back and watch the developments…
KEE-RA
Got context … Now to hang back and watch the developments…
A short while later there’s a thud and a nudge which gets Kee-Ra’s attention.
MR SQUEEK
Did you see this? Dude…? Did ya….?
Kee-Ra is shaking the nap fog from his brain and then his eyes focus on the RAZR which is now back in Mr Squeek’s possession.
KEE-RA
Huh?
MR SQUEEK
Grabbed it from the planter and powered up…
He’s waving the RAZR at Kee-Ra…
MR SQUEEK
This is COOL. Way COOL!!
Studying Kee-Ra closely, he winks at him and powers down.
MR SQUEEK
Based on that smile on your sleeping face … Dreamin’ away, I ‘spose… Well… We’ll pick this up another time, eh?
Kee-Ra gives him a smiley-sleepy nod.
MR SQUEEK
Alrighty, then… Later, gator!
And with a leap, he’s hopped the fence and is on his way. Kee-Ra opens his eyes in time to see just the tail of Mr Squeek as he disappears.
Just then he hears in the wind “KOKO!!”
Smiling, Kee-Ra returns to his nap.
FADE OUT.
Stay tuned…
TO. BE. CONTINUED…
That’s a Wrap…
And so it was that Kee-Ra got a preview of “COMING ATTRACTIONS” and Mr Squeek, while digging what he SWIPED & SAW so far, is in for a surprise… That much we can say.
Please stay tuned to find out WHAT. HAPPENS. NEXT…
