2 Broke Girls

There's a whole lot of bottom-smacking going on in the Oct. 7th  CBS TV show, 2 Broke Girls--very light, to be sure, but still there.  It's Season 3, episode 3, and it's no surprise that the episode is titled, "2 Broke Girls And The Kitty Kitty Spank Spank".

(Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs as Max and Caroline of 2 Broke Girls)

In the episode, Max wants to take in a stray cat, bur roommate Caroline insists that they try to find it a better home.  One of the people they try is the owner of the diner they work in, Han.

Han is taking inventory in the kitchen.  Max asks him if he'd want to adopt a stray cat who, among other things, likes to be spanked on the bottom while you say his name.  Han, still working, can't imagine why anyone would like that.  He then bends over to count items on a lower shelf.  Max decides to demonstrate, and she swats Han 5 times, saying with each swat, "Kitty.....kitty.....kittykittykitty".  The look on Han's face afterward is priceless.  I think maybe the appeal of it starts to dawn on him.

Later, on their way out of the kitchen, Max does the same 5 swats to Caroline--two slow, and then three together, while again saying, "Kitty....kitty....kittykittykitty".  Caroline giggles and says something to the effect of, "That does feel kind of nice."  (I'm working from memory, so any quotes are going to be inexact.  Sorry about that.)

Still later in the show, Han finds Max leaning on a counter.  He walks up behind her, and you can guess what he does, only instead of "kitty" he uses her name, calling her "Maxie".

("Maxie...Maxie....MaxieMaxieMaxie")

Then, when he's done, he turns around and bends over, assuming it's his turn.  Max's response to Han is to tell him that 1) She now owns the diner, and 2) He should NEVER do that again.  Apparently Max can dish it out, but she can't take it--or, more likely, she can take it, but not from Han.  Not ever.

There is one final incident at the very end of the show when everything has been resolved.  Max once again swats Caroline on the butt, to the same tune of "Kitty...kitty...kittykittykitty".  Caroline again winds up giggling and wonders out loud, "Why do I like that?"  (I'm sure all the readers of this blog could tell her.)

You can, I'm sure, find the episode online, or find clips of it on YouTube.  Or--as I always say--check with Chross's Blog.  If he doesn't have it at the moment, he probably will at some point in the future.

Oh, yeah...at one point in the show, Max is actually holding the stray cat and gives him the bottom-spanking treatment.  The cat seems unimpressed.
