WHAT?

Cute Kitten Video (Please Watch) is a comedy movie that follows two high school students (Stewart and JW) and two inept high school security officers (Tom and Ted) through the first week of school. While Stewart and JW are having run-ins with Butch, the school bully, Tom and Ted are constantly getting into trouble with Principal Butthole for being incompetent.

Stewart and JW become close friends—they eat together in the same diner every morning and stay after school most days to work on building a time machine for the upcoming science fair. Though they have each other, the two students find little support from anyone else, and Stewart’s home life keeps him bordering on depression.

When Tom lets down his guard at the school dance, Butch drugs JW’s punch. As a result, Tom is fired and forced to go back in time to save his job. Of course, Tom only makes things worse as his actions start to have a direct effect on Stewart and JW.
