Synopsis: This short educational film, with both live action and animated segments, outlines the dangers of drug addiction by sharing the story of a teenaged boy named Tim. Produced for The American Council for Drug Education.
Cartoon Cat: Late in the film Tim “borrows” his mother’s car and goes joyriding with his friends while stoned. An orange cat is sitting in the road when they approach and swerve the car, crashing into a fire hydrant.
Final Mewsings: The cat must have been high on catnip to be sitting in the road like that.
