In the beginning of this episode, the Cat is looking for a dream he had by using a machine that allows you to sort through your dreams. We get to see this dream, although this isn’t the one he’s looking for. In this dream, he’s singing lead in a group with Rimmer and Lister. That’s the song you’re hearing (if it’s working right, which I hope and pray it is). The dances they do are kind of cute and funny. I saw the Cat dance in another episode of Red Dwarf, and he can move. I figured he was a professional, and I found out later on that it’s true. He’s a dancer in real life. He toured with a UK dance troupe called WHAM.

 I think this was taken when they were shooting the episode called Cassandra. Cassandra was a computer that predicted the future. She predicted that Lister was going to die at a very, very old trying to take somebody’s bra off with his teeth. Lister was flattered and wanted to know whose bra it was. The Cat said, in a disgusted way, "A hundred and eighty-one? Probably your own".

 

 In this episode, Better Than Life, the guys use the AR machine to play a video game called "Better Than Life". In this game, the guys can do and have anything and everything they want. It was around this time, however, that Rimmer’s "diseased brain" started jacking up everything. He went bankrupt, lost all of his riches, not to mention that he was married to a nagging wife with a horde full of bratty kids and was being pursued by a psycho who was out to collect his debt money or break Rimmer’s bones. In this part, Rimmer informs the guys that they’ve been buried up to their heads in sand, their heads have been covered with strawberry jelly, and they’re about to be chewed to death by killer ants.

"Why!" the cat screams.

"Why not!" Rimmer screams back.

Good things just don’t happen to this dude, just like Rimmer said.
