A scene from Fritz the Cat 1972
Duke

[Fritz bumps into Duke at a pool table]

Hey, man, you in a bag?

Fritz

Yeah, that's it. I'm in a bag.

Duke

Just don't lose your coolness, cat. I mean, don't lose your coolness.

Fritz

Well, easy for you to talk. You're a crow. I wish I was a crow. If I was a crow, I'd fly away, man. I'd fly away from this miserable town for good.

Duke

You think being a crow is a big mother**** ball? All you cats the same, man. You don't know where it is. There's nobody to tell you where it's at. And you come up here, try to find out where it's at, but you got to be up here, man, to find out what's happening!

Fritz

I know it isn't a ball, man. I studied the race problems. I know.

Duke

You don't know nothing about the race problem! You gotta be a crow to know about the race problem! You know what I mean? Do you dig where I'm at? You know what I'm talking about?

Fritz

Well, listen, man. this thing affects me very deeply, fella. As a cat, I have a considerable guilt complex, because my kind have always brought suffering on your kind.

Duke

Yeah?

Fritz

Yeah. Yes, indeed, my soul is tortured and tormented by this racial crisis.

Duke

No sh*t?

Fritz

Sometimes I really get hung up about it. You know, uptight. Strung out.

Duke

ln a bag?

Fritz

Yeah, in a bag.
