Part One
(Tony is seen eating breakfast with the PoundRaizers.)

Narrator: It was on this morning that Tony Rigs' life is about to change...

(A knock is heard on the door.)

Bartrand: I'll go see who that is.

(Bartrand goes to the door and answers it.)

Bartrand: Hello?

Woman: Is Tony Rigs here?

Bartrand: Yeah. Who are you?

Woman: I'm Odette Terwilliger, co-owner of Terwilliger Sisters Studios.

Bartrand: Terwilliger Sisters Studios?

Miss Terwilliger: Surely you've seen our show, My Dad, The Ninja.

Bartrand: Oh! Anyway, what do you need Tony for?

Miss Terwilliger: I'm here to offer him a job.

Bartrand: Cool.

Miss Terwilliger: May I see Mr. Rigs, please?

Bartrand: Yes.

(Bartrand escorts Miss Terwilliger to Tony.)

Miss Terwilliger: Hello. You must be Mr. Rigs.

Tony: Yep. That's me.

Miss Terwilliger: I'm Odette Terwilliger of Terwilliger Sisters Studios.

Tony: Terwilliger Sisters Studios? I've heard about that place before.

Miss Terwilliger: So, Mr. Rigs, how would you like to be an actor?

Tony: I'd love to!

Miss Terwilliger: Wonderful. Whenever you're ready, let me know and I'll do the rest.

Tony: Okay.

(Miss Terwilliger leaves.)

Tony: Wow. Imagine me as a Hollywood movie star.

Saffron: Yeah.

Stephanie: That would be cool!

Ian: Yeah!

Antonio: Hmmm.... I don't know about that.

Bartrand: What do you mean?

Antonio: Remember what happened to Bright Eyes the last time she was offered to be a movie star?

Darius: We know.

Victoria: But if I know Tony Rigs, nothing bad would happen to him.

Saffron: Vicky's right.

Tony: Yeah. Besides, what can go wrong?

Darius: That's what I was afraid of.

Bartrand: Don't worry. He'll be fine.

Darius: I hope....

(Later, Tony and Bartrand are telling Cooler and Holly the news.)

Cooler: Ah, so you're gonna be a movie star, eh?

Tony: Yep. I'm gonna get to work with all the big name stars. I'll be on the big screen.

Cooler: That's great.

Tony: You bet it is! Imagine... Me, a legendary movie star like the Marf Brothers, the Three Wise Guys, Orson Wolf, Ruffster Keaton, Collie Chaplin, or that guy who directed Mongroplois! I'm going to love being in Hollywood! I better pack.

(Tony leaves.)

Cooler: Boy, he sure is excited.

Bartrand: Yep. The other PoundRaizers and I should accompany him, if you don't mind, Cooler, Holly.

Cooler: You can accompany him, just to make sure he's safe.

Part One
(At Holly's Puppy Pound, Holly and Cooler are filing the papers when Howler comes in with his weather checker.)

Howler: Aroo! Cooler! Holly! We got some nasty storms heading our way.

Holly: That doesn't sound good.

Cooler: I hope it's not as bad as it was the last time we had severe weather.

Holly: Me too.

Cooler: I think we better be ready.

Howler: Yeah, we should, Cooler.

(Later, the pound is preparing for the storm.)

Holly: Do we have everything we need?

Cooler: Yep. Always be prepared. I've already warned our allies.

Holly: Good.

Cooler: Yeah. We'll be fine. We have good shelter and plenty of supplies.

Howler: The storm is almost here!

Cooler: Ooh! We better head to the basement.

(The gang quickly goes to the basement.)

Howler: Whew! We're safe.

Cooler: Yeah...

(After the storm, the gang emerges from the shelter.)

Howler: Well, that was a wild storm.

Cooler: Sure was.

(Cooler opens the pound's door to reveal a mess in the yard.)

Cooler: Why can't tornadoes clean up after themselves?

Howler: I don't know, Cooler. I'm not a tornado.

Holly: Well, come on, everyone. Time to clean up.

(They hear a meow.)

Cooler: Catgut... was that you?

Catgut: Don't look at me.

(Cooler looks at Hairball.)

Hairball: I didn't do it.

(The gang then notices a pile of clutter moving.)

Sen Sen: What's that?

(Cooler carefully goes by the clutter.)

Bartrand: Be careful, Cooler!

(Before Cooler can lift the debris, a cat bursts from the rubble.)

Cat: Whoo-whee! I haven't been on a ride like that since the last tornado!

Cooler: Who are you?

Cat: They call me Gusty. I'm a storm chaser.

Cooler: Storm chaser?

Gusty: That's right. I've been a storm chaser for three years.

Cooler: Ooh. Interesting.

Gusty: Uh huh. So, when's the next big storm coming? I'm looking forward to chase another tornado.

Cooler: Not for awhile, Gusty.... (Aside) Matter of fact, not for a very long time.

Gusty: (Sadly) Oh.

Cooler: Why don't you come in and relax?

Gusty: No way. That ain't my style. Besides, where's the fun in that?

Holly: Relaxing can be really fun.

Gusty: Oh, what do you guys know about fun? Storm-chasing is even more fun!

(Gusty starts to leave.)

Holly: This is an interesting guest.

(Cooler stops Gusty.)

Cooler: Gusty, wait.

Gusty: Yeah?

Cooler: I have something fun to show you.

Gusty: Really?

Cooler: Yeah. Come on.

(Cooler and Gusty go to the HQ's arcade.)

Gusty: That's it? Arcade games? Pfft! I'm outta here.

Cooler: Wait a minute! We just got a new addition to the arcade. We got a tornado simulator! It'll make you experience the effects of a tornado. Howler designed it. He can do anything.

Gusty: But it's not the real thing. Therefore, the thrill of the experience isn't there. Sorry.

(Gusty is about to leave.)

Cooler: Wait! What kind of food do you like to eat?

Gusty: I like tuna melts but I got lots of those in my pack.

Weather Radio: Due to the increase in moisture and dew points, another day of tornadoes is expected tomorrow. Be advised to stay indoors.

Cooler: Oh no....

Gusty: Oh yes!

Part Two
(Later, Cooler is holding Gusty so that he won't leave.)

Cooler: Gusty, no! You'll get killed out there!

Gusty: I've done this a million times! I know what to do!

Cooler: And suppose you get killed on the million and first time.

Gusty: No way. I'll show you.

Cooler: Catgut! Sen Sen! Stop him!

(Catgut and Sen Sen hold Gusty.)

Gusty: Let me go or I'll throw you in that tornado!

Sen Sen: Pfft! Like you have the strength to do so. I've been through worse situations.

Gusty: Oh yeah? Watch this!

(Gusty lifts Sen Sen with one hand.)

Sen Sen: What the...?!

Gusty: Now get out of my way!

(Gusty tosses Sen Sen into a laundry basket and tries to get away, but the alarm is set off.)

Cooler: There's the alarm.

Gusty: And that's my cue.

(A net drops on Gusty.)

Gusty: What the...?!

Cooler: Good work, Howler.

(Howler is shown holding a net launching gun.)

Howler: Aroo! Thanks, Cooler.

Gusty: When I get out of here, I'm gonna turn you jerks into soap!

Sen Sen: I'd like to see you try. By the way, how are you gonna turn us into soap?

Gusty: I don't know. First thing that came to mind.

Sen Sen: Hmm. Whatever. Anyway, you're not going out there.

Gusty: I can and I will... somehow.

Sen Sen: (Whispering to Cooler) Should we put a leash on him?

Cooler: (Whispering) I don't think so.

Sen Sen: Well, what else do you expect me to do, let him run outside?

Cooler: I don't think he can get out of there.

Sen Sen: OK.

(Sen Sen leaves.)

Catgut: I can't believe that we have another tornado to expect.

Gusty: Scaredy-cat.

Catgut: (Glaring at Gusty) What did you call me, jerk?

Gusty: Scaredy-cat.

Catgut: Try that again.

Gusty: Scaredy-cat.

Catgut: Okay, you asked for it!

(Catgut throws a punch but Gusty ducks and pounds on Catgut's wrist. Catgut and Cooler are shocked by Gusty's strength and agility.)

Gusty: Anything else?

Catgut(nervous): No.

(Catgut leaves to tend his hand.)

Cooler: Okay, Gusty. You're getting out of hand here.

Gusty: Just let me out of here and I'll calm down.

Cooler: We don't want you to get hurt out there.

Gusty: Don't worry. I've been doing this for years.

Cooler: Are you sure about that?

Gusty: Yes. Now let me out, PLEASE!

Cooler: Well... since you said please, all right.

(Cooler releases Gusty.)

Gusty: Thanks. And don't worry. I'll be fine.

(Gusty goes outside.)

Cooler: I hope so.

Part Three
(Gusty is seen standing outside. Cooler, Sen Sen and Catgut watch from afar.)

Catgut: Cooler, may I ask what gave you the idea of letting Gusty outside when they just announced another tornado outbreak?

Cooler: It's what he wants. We shouldn't stop him.

Sen Sen: I agree. He may be your size, but he's unbelievably strong. If we try to stop him, he'll twist our necks off.

Catgut: You don't know that.

Sen Sen: Cooler, do you believe that Gusty is so strong that he'd twist our necks off?

Cooler: We know he's strong, all right, but I don't think he would do that.

Sen Sen: But I've been wrong before.

(The skies get darker.)

Gusty: Come on, twister. Show yourself.

(They then see a group of storm chasers outside the gates.)

Catgut: Hey, Cooler! Look!

(Cooler notices the storm chasers and gets an idea.)

Cooler: Catgut, you just gave me an idea!

Catgut: I did?

Cooler: Yep. Now, listen...

(Outside, Gusty notices the storm chasers.)

Gusty: Ooh, storm chasers.

Storm Chaser: Hmmm... Looks like a big one's coming.

Gusty: Ooh! A big one!

Storm Chaser 2: How big is it?

Storm Chaser: I'd say about.... a couple miles wide.

Gusty: Even better.

Storm Chaser: Well, we better get some good footage of it.

Gusty: Ooh! Those are my owners!

(Cooler, Sen Sen and Catgut is shocked to hear what Gusty said.)

Cooler, Sen Sen and Catgut: Huh?!

Catgut: Did he really just say that?

Gusty: That's where I belong!

(One of the storm chasers notice Gusty.)

Storm Chaser: Hey, look! A cat!

(Gusty waves to them.)

Gusty: Hi, guys! I'm a storm-chaser, too! Want to adopt me?

Storm Chaser: You hear that, Elmer?

Elmer: Yeah, Carol. He says that he's a storm-chaser like us. We could use him.

Carol: (To Gusty) Of course we'll adopt you!

Gusty: Yes!

Cooler: Well, look at that.

Sen Sen: Yeah. It looks like Gusty is going to get adopted.

Catgut: and he continue chasing his dream.

Elmer: (Noticing Cooler) Hey, you! Are you the co-owner of Holly's Puppy Pound?

Cooler: Yep.

Elmer: We'd like to adopt this cat.

Cooler: Okay...

(The sirens go off.)

Cooler: Right after the tornado is over.

Gusty: Well for me, it's time for action.

Elmer: Don't worry about us, young pup. We'll be fine.

(Back inside, the heroes are in the basement again.)

Cooler: I'm sure they know what they're doing.

Catgut: Hopefully, they'll make it out alive.

(Cut to Gusty and his new owners.)

Carol: Are you ready, Gusty?

Gusty: You know it.

(Elmer gets out his camera.)

Gusty: Ooh! It's a big one!

Carol: Here it comes!

Gusty: And here I go!

(The trio drive their car closer and closer to the tornado.)

Elmer: OK, Gusty. You're up!

Gusty: I'm ready!

Elmer: Here we go, Gusty!

(They drive close enough. Cut to the heroes in the basement.)

Catgut: I hope they're OK out there.

Sen Sen: Eh, I'm sure they're okay, Catgut. What could possibly go wrong?

Catgut: I hope you're right, Sen Sen. I hope you're right.

(Cooler comforts Catgut.)

Cooler: He is, Catgut. Don't worry about it.

(Catgut feels the ground rumbling.)

Catgut: Uh-oh. It's here.

Gamma: Don't panic, everyone. You know the drill.

(Gamma forms a barrier around everyone.)

Gamma: On the bright side, at least we don't have that beanstalk crybaby with us.

Cooler and Holly (sternly) Gamma....

Gamma: I know, I know.

(The ground rumbles violently.)

Gamma: Brace yourselves, everyone! It's here.

(The heroes shake.)

Gamma: Holy smokes, it's a big one!
