Sandra, Celia and the Hobgoblin S03E04
“And then you can imagine how delicious it was for me to find out I was a dragon… I mean, Millie was always better than me… then Celia…. And I, we were meant for each other, and being able to shift into a dragonfly is such a wonderfully magnificent… but cats are good too… I mean, it would be absolutely tragic if you changed into cats cause cats eat… no, play, with dragonflies until they’re… well, dead… so maybe… anyway, it would be a ghastly thing to be eaten by a cat for me, but I ‘spose seeing as Millie and I are way bigger than you… we could eat, or play with you, not that we would, but we did eat our grandmother.

There were eight puppies and all, but Rex followed their mother from the back porch to the lawn.

Season Two Finale: Skimmers
Facing off with Judith, an elder to the twins, shook the girls a little, then Millie started groaning, and it became a cry.
