Two actor performances in the style of a scene out of a movie.
Fired from his stock broker job due to stress, Walter Benswar finds the opposite problem of being unemployed and stir crazy while waiting for employment. He begins to question his sanity when he starts hallucinating his apartment neighbors dying in gruesome ways, and not being able to tell if he was committing the murders in a stupor of ennui. Until he hallucinates his OWN death.
Walter, after having been questioned and released by the police department, has apparently awoken to blood on his paws, a carving knife in one of them. He is standing in the apartment of his rabbit neighbor Janice, and her brutally stabbed body at his feet. As he is trying to make sense of it all, he hears the voice that has been giving him his hallucinations. His id-based desires. And now, his murderous rampages.
It's a whole new world in 1824 Louisiana. France has sold their land to the still-new United States, and now Spain has given Florida up for a strong border West. All of that change proves too exciting for one skinny red fox growing up in deep Cajun country, the first American-born in his family. And so begins an incredible journey across the Southern states, where Barton Rouge will meet both friends and foes alike on his way through the darkest voodoo country in all the land.
Barton's been sneaking along the edge of the bayou, gathering up supplies for his adventure across the Southern states, on his way to the new American holding of Florida. Just before he's about to start his trip, he spots a coyote being chased by a pack of dogs. Not finding it a fair fight, the fox intervenes, grabbing the dogs' attention and leading them away from the coyote, then rounding back and helping him escape into the dark, gloomy bayou. Barton's generosity isn't without benefit. The skinny fox could use a big coyote for protection on his journey. Just has to make sure he doesn't start off on the wrong paw.

A rainstorm has forced Digger to take refuge in a painted cave. When the resident hyena returns from a failed hunt, a wombat fist to the nose keeps him hungry. Knowing she's trespassing, Digger willingly turns to leave but is stopped when the hyena stumbles through a chant of offered welcome. Preferring her strange host over the rain, Digger cautiously spends the night.
