On this journey we see Benson conquering his deepest fears, with a little help from Nelly. Klaus and the Cat-astrophe Klaus is a guard dog by heart and he just loves to guard his master's art studio. One thing he likes to make sure of is that no one goes near the new paintings! Tojo and Nelly just happened to be passing and curious, as cats are... Old Madam Mischief Madame Abigail is so elderly and frail, she seems to be struggling to do the simplest of things! It's lucky for her that Tojo and Nelly step in, to help her have a most mischievous day. She seems to have the glint back in her eye and a wide furry smile to match.
