Not really my cup of tea...

What a freaky cartoon...

A couple of nights ago I was watching MTV Indonesia, and they started
playing some cartoons I'd never seen before. From the background
music and the way they'd drawn the two characters, it looked like
something for small children. But like I said before, it was night,
and on MTV!

Okay, these two characters, which were like humanoid cats, were in a
hospital bedroom. One of the characters, a girl was a patient there,
and she was all bound up almost like a mummy on her bed. The other
character, a boy was his friend paying a visit trying to cheer her up.

The boy first tried to play the violin for her, but the girl still
looked unchanged, sad. So next the boy took out his flute and started
to play... and it worked like a charm.

The girl liked the music, and was all smiles. Actually, the music was
so good that the bandage from one of her legs started to stand up like
an enchanted serpent. (Get it? A flute player and the enchanted
bandage).

But then disaster stroke when this bandage got way too close to the
bedroom's fan. It got tangled in the wings, it pulled the girl's leg,
and ended up breaking it! Yes, you could see the girl's leg had come
off, and you could even see the bone where the leg had broken.

The boy got scared, and stopped playing, and by hand put together the
leg back to its place. He made sure nobody could tell just by looking
that it'd been broken. Then to comfort the girl for the extra pain
he'd caused, he continued to play... but this time the bandage stood
up quicker and tangled into the fan even worse than before... and it
pulled not just the girl's leg, but the whole girl in to the fan!!!

You can see how the girl is absorved by the fan, and the next scene
shows the boy horrorized with blood splattering all over the wall
around him. He just leaves the room trying to pretend nothing
happened, he doesn't know anything.

Yeah, that was the children's cartoon, or so I'd thought.
