 Dragged In (Web Video)
comment
Dragged In is Leo Thompson's (That SciFi Guy) contribution to The Uncanny Valley.Mr. Donavin (sic) majored in xenolinguistics at university, with a minor in macguffinism - therefore, he's working as an assistant at a veterinarian's office. All that changes one day when he is approached by a pair of mysterious government agents who can't tell him anything because their security clearance isn't as high as his. What do they want with him? What can he deliver? And what's in the strange transmission that has just been received from another planet?Watch it here.

Replacement Goldfish: Several people get some kind of replacements for their missing cats. Mostly plushies and such. Phelous even a new cat, which gets taken the second they are off camera. The internet also tried to find something to compensate the loss... the cute Furry videos. You're welcome.

Digital Piracy Is Evil: The government believes this so much that they put a copyright/"do not steal" notice before the First Contact video. It gets leaked of course.

comment
Be Careful What You Wish For / Didn't Think This Through: The aliens want all the cats because the cute videos have won them over, only to find out that those videos omit all of the more trying aspects of cat ownership. Which could have been avoided if they had checked Wikipedia or at least a pet care site.

A Degree in Useless: Donivan’s major in linguistic unobtainology with a minor in macguffinism does not exactly get him a high-paying job. Pretty handy when translating alien writing though.

Shout-Out
 Dragged In (Web Video) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: When Brad Jones posted it on his site, the description he gave for it was: "A top Russian ballet dancer, who defected to the US, crash lands in his own country. The KGB throws him in Siberia to live with an American expatriate and his Russian wife as a way to convince him to stay in his homeland", the premise of the fairly obscure 1985 movie White Nights, starring Mikhail Baryshnikov and, in a secondary role, Helen Mirren. Also, the vet clinic Mr. Donavin works for is called "No Tribble At All". On another Trek note, one patient is Mr. Archer, who fed his pet too much cheese.
