Scene 1A
FADE IN/DOWNWARD PAN TO AN OLD WESTERN DESERT, ONCE PANNING STOPS,
THE TITLE SUDDENLY SLAPS ONTO THE SCREEN WITH THE SOUND OF A CRACKING WHIP, THEN FADES AFTER FIVE SECONDS
ZOOM SLOWLY TOWARD A WESTERN TOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PLAINS, THEN DISSOLVE TO A SCENE IN THE SQUARE FROM WHICH STANDS SHERIFF WYLIE BURP, AN ELDERLY BASSET HOUND IN THE CENTER OF A RING OF CAT OUTLAWS.
YOUNG BOY’S VOICE
... And then, the hero Wylie Burp squinted across the dusty street.
CUT THE TOP OF A ROOFTOP, FROM WHICH FIEVEL MOUSEKEWITZ, WHO HAS GROWN A BIT, TIPTOES TO THE EDGE TO SEE THEM. HE IS DRESSED IN WESTERN CLOTHES AS WELL.
FIEVEL [O.S.]
Hopelessly surrounded by the Cactus Cat Gang, he stood his ground refusing to back down.
