A Hot Chipped Cat
eaving Mr Draper's apartment it occurs to Cully and Krush that Mr. Blofeldt is likely to have had a tracking chip installed and so Cully and Pike put in a call to the municipal computer, Barney, which contains a databaseof every license issued for a pet in MC1. Unfortunately Barney seems to be overwhelmed with calls at the moment and both judges are put into a queue.
Perhaps there is evidence that thye missed in the apartment and so they return and begin a more thorough search. Krush begins looking for a safe behibnd the many paintings, Cully searches the walk in closet and Pike the bedroom dresser. Pike finds a desktop armoire filled with cat collars of every colour. In the drawers below are stuffed receipts from a store called Cat Couture. In the living room behind a large painting, Krush finds a safe with a combination keypad. Pike suggests tying in Mr. Blofeldts birthday.
They switch on the Tri-D TV and search the calendar. Mr Blofeldts birthday is circled as an event on 04-11. Krush punches in the numbers and is rewarded with a satisfying click, the key to cracking the case is almost in his hands. Unfortunately, the safe contains only a large stock of human dehydrated food. "Well that's one mystery solved" remarks Swiss.
Searching through Miss Wildensteins favourites they discover that she watched almost exclusively celebrity vids, cat vids and celebrity cat vids. One channel is "Where's my Pussy?" which is a lost cat channel through which owners can report their lost stolen or otherwise errant feline friends . It contains thousands of pictures of missing moggies and Cully decides to use it to list Mr. Blofeldt. She fills out the online form.
Pike calls up the directory and dials the number for Cat Couture. Two well dressed men answer the phone and immediately begin effervescing about how glad they are that Miss Wildenstein has called. They are shocked and surprised to learn that Miss Wildenstein is deceased. The pair are know to Judge Cully and she remembers that they were the owners of Zlooty Slute's Suits You, a gentlemens outfitters on Melania Boulevard.
Cat Couture
Following their recent close call with disaster Mr Slute and Mr Floot have gone into the cat accessory business. Miss Wildenstein was one of their biggest customers and she had only recently purchased a stunning blue diamante collar for Mr. Blofeldt worth C10,000. Mr Floot delicately enquires about the whereabouts of the collar and is dismayed to hear about the missing cat. They suggest a personal visit to their store to see if they can be of assistance.

30 minutes later the Judges walk through the door of Cat Couture and begin to interrogate Slute and Flute. Cully demands a list of customers but they refuse citing client confidentiality. Despite being threatened with 2 years in the cubes for withholding evidence they remain tight lipped. Swiss suggests that perhaps if the pair were enrolled in the Informants Scheme they could carry out some investigations on their behalf. Cully prints out an F17-C and signs the pair up. Mr Floot comments that "He never liked Mr. Blofeldt #5, it was so sad to hear about the death of #4"
As they mount up outside they consider their possible lines of investigation:
1. Head to The Jungle and see if the Ape Mafia have anything to do with the stolen cat.
2. Pay a visit to Felix Pet Foods the source of the threatening emails to Miss Wildenstein.
3. Go back to sector house and see if the morgue has found anything out on the body.
Their musings are cut short by a scream and a cry "look out it's a boinger!"
What the Boing!
With a sickening crunch splat a boinger lands on a innocent passer-by killing them instantly.
Judge Pike tries a psychic blast, but Boing is impervious to psychic energy as proven by Judge Anderson when she and Judge Death were entombed in boing many years ago. Cully manages to shoot off an incendiary round turning the globe of plastic into a spicy hot flaming rubber ball before it bounces up into the air.
As a second boinger lands, Swiss attempts to fire an HE round but is momentarily blinded by a falling piece of burning plastic landing on his visor. He orders his bike to engage with it's cannon. BUDDA, BUDDA, BUDDA go the cannon and three large calibre shells ricochet off the rubber ball. 2 come straight back at the lawmaster busting it up and a third kills a bystander who was making for the safety of the alleyway opposite.

Ralf Loren, a member of Trump Towers Citi-Def, is buying lunch at the Munce Bar with his squad mates Dave and Suraya. He instinctively opens up with his stub gun but misses the second boinger and peppers the front of the Sector 55 Bank with lead.
Judge Krush spins his bike around and fires his Cyclops Laser Cannon at the Boinger. It's beam cuts through the plastic like a hot knife through butter and punches through into Dave "Shagger" Williams disintegrating his lower torso. The third citi-def member, Suraya, screams in agony "Who watches the Judges?"
Ralph comforts his squad mate "It's not looking good Dave" whilst Suraya wave's Dave's legs in the air and tries to grab someone's attention shouting "Medic!"
Pike shoots an AP round at a third boinger who is about to land. With a crunch it lands on a yellow saloon heading north crushing the plassteel canopy and causing it to crash into an orange car coming the other way. The boinger ricochets off into the windows of Cat Couture. Swiss shoots an incendiary at the ascending second boinger as the 1st boinger, now a mishapen blob of burning goo, reaches apogee. Cully fires an HE at Boinger #2 sending it splatting into the wall of Joe Biden Block opposite.An orange compact hover car is showered with burning debris, swerves and smashes through the windows of Kneepads R'You.
Krush fires an AP round at Boinger #3 as it ricochets off Cat Couture's armoured windows and flies across the road into the Kneepad Store.
Pike dives under the yellow saloon for cover as what is left of boinger heads for impact. Cully fires off a HE round at #1 but misses blowing up an unsuspecting citizens apartment. Boinger #1 lands with a splat on what is left of the yellow saloon. Pike breathes a sigh of relief and hopes that Judge Belloch will be lenient under the circumstances.
In the Kneepad Store the burning orange compact explodes killing everyone in the store including those who ran inside to shelter from the chaos outside.
