He then discovers that his role in the film is minor and of little significance (actually he has a one-worded line: “meow”). Much to his dismay, he also discovers that animals are usually given thankless roles.

He then starts planning on getting animals bigger roles in films using several strategies. One of them was to assemble a massive amount of animals to perform in front of the humans.

While in the process, he meets several characters. He makes a new friend, a penguin called Pudge. His fellow actor on his first film, Sawyer. Characters Tillie, Cranston, Frances, and T.W. made him realize that humans are the ones given major roles in all movies.
