Cat Out of the Bag Alert!  This review contains some spoilers for this film!

Synopsis: TS (Jeremy London) and his best friend Brodie (Jason Lee) both breakup with their girlfriends and seek solace at the local mall.

Cat Burglars (Scene Stealers): The opening of the film includes a joke about a guy buying cats from a pet store that he uses in an unorthodox way.  After TS and Brodie arrive at the mall they meet up with Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith) in front of a pet store.  Jay is banging on the window and yelling “Kitty!  Kitty!  Kitty!”

The kittens are seen in the window throughout the scene.  Next to them are the gerbils, which also ties into the opening joke.

Final Mewsings: Don’t bang on the glass!  And don’t stick cats up your … ahem.
