The trio walked outside, just as the paper was thrown at the door.

"I'm telling you guys, you're gonna be seeing this face on TV, a lot more often," Mike told us as they walked down the steps.

"Yeah, as a cupcake or a cookie," Sam told him, chuckling.

"Or on a Monstropolis' most wanted?" Sulley joked.

The couple laughed as Mike faked laughed.

He said, "You've been jealous of my looks, since the fourth grade, guys" Sulley and Sam laughed again.

Two birds were saying goodbye to each other. "Have a good day sweetie," The female told her husband.

"You too, hon," The male told her after kissing. He flew away from his home, mostly to his work.

"Ooh, okay Sulley, Sam, hop on in," Mike told them as he stopped in front of his car.

"Nope. Uh-uh," Sulley said.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!. Where are you going?, What are you doing?" Mike asked them as Sulley and Sam walked pass the car.

"Mike, remember the little problem the city has?" Sam asked, trying to remind him.

"Mikey, there's a scream shortage," Sulley told him, "We're walking."

"Walking?" Mike asked, shocked.

"Yes, Mike" Sam said, chuckling.

"No. Hey, no, no. Come on," Mike said.

"Come on," Sulley said, pulling on Mike as Mike held onto his car.

"My baby, look-She needs to be driven," Mike said. Mike lets go of his car, and told it, "Bye baby!, I-I'll call you!"

"Hey geniuses," Mike addressed his friends, "Y-you wanna why I bought the car, huh?"

"You're lazy?" Sam asked, sarcastically.

Sulley laughed at that, though Mike was not amused.

"No, no 'cause I'm lazy'," Mike told her, mocking her. "To drive it. You know, like on the street with the honk-honk and the vroom-vroom and no walking involved."

"Give it a rest, will you, butterball?" Sulley asked.

Some kids were playing jump rope and chanting as the trio walked past them, "How many tentacles jump the rope,"

"Morning Mike!, Morning Sulley, Morning Sam!" One of them said.

"One and two and three," The kids kept chanting.

"Hey, morning, kids," Sulley greeted them.

"Hey kids," Mike said.

"Hey" Sam told them.

"How you doin?" Mike asked them.

"Bye Mike!, Bye Sulley!, Bye Sam!" The orange kid told them.

"Hey!" The monster in the building growled , when one of the kids was thrown into one of his eyes.

They passed the Hidden City Café, where a green monster was sweeping the ground, and then swallowed the garbage, that he picked up. A monster with red skin was reading a newspaper. He sneezed, and his paper was ashes. The guy sneezed fire. "Aw, nuts" He said.

Tony was stacking his fruits, when he saw the trio. He said, "Hey, hey, hey, fellas!"

"Hey, Tony," Mike said.

"Tony," Sulley said, pointing at Tony.

"Hiya" Sam said, smiling and waving.

"Hey, Tony," Sulley said.

"Tony," Mike said.

"I hear somebody's close to breaking the all-time scare record," Tony told Sulley.

"Ah, just trying to make sure there's enough scream to go around," Sulley told him.

"And how is your wonderful marriage, with this young lady," Tony asked Sulley.

Sulley chuckled, as he wrapped his arm around his wife's waist, and Sam leaned into his side with a smile on her face, "It is still amazing,"

Then, the trio began to leave, Tony threw some fruit at them. Sam caught the green, spiked fruit as Tony said, "Hey, on the house!"

"Hey, thanks," Mike said.

When, they got to the end of the street, they saw Ted, a giant monster that crows like a chicken. "Hey, Ted!" Sulley exclaimed.

"Good morning!" Sulley and Sam said in unison. Ted crowed.

The walking sign changed, Sulley tapped Mike's arm as he lanced his fingers with Sam's, "See that Mikey?, Ted's walking to work."

"Big deal, he just takes a couple steps and he's there." Mike said.
