Sophie bangs on the door, unable to sleep because of the cat yowling. Sophie tells them in Poland, if you die outside, you're reincarnated as a cat, so never let a cat in.
Max ignores them both and sneaks it in through the window.
The girls try to find the cat a home, but no one is interested. Max is happy to keep it. A woman at the diner overhears that they're looking for a home for it, and says she'd be interested.
They bring the cat to see the woman. They go into her apartment, and find it covered with cats. Max pulls Caroline aside to tell her they can't leave the cat in that situation.
Caroline says they'll have to bring the cat to a shelter, but Max says she's not pretty enough to get adopted.
