[[WMG: While at the Institute, the rats experience a MushroomSamba that is the events of ''PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''.]]
They come to telepathically "connect" (hence the anime's OP song) with the human scientists injecting them with all kinds of psychoactive drugs and somewhat realize their situation with heightened intelligence, hence the reason for some rats' escape.

The "Witches" were horrific hallucinations brought on both by the drugs and by incomplete "readings" of the various scientists' minds. For instance, Charlotte was inspired by one scientist thinking he should get some more baby mice to feed his pet snake, and Uhrmann [[TearJerker was actually a dog in the lab, wondering why the]] [[HumansAreCthulhu scientists were doing all these horrible things to her]]. Kyubey was a BrokenBird rat who sensed that humans tend to regard rats as vermin, and hence believed that the other rats should willingly sacrifice themselves to the humans' experiments. As to why they imagined themselves as Japanese anime characters? One of the chief NIMH researchers was originally from Japan, and an anime fan.

The enlightened rats obviously had quite the metaphysical dilemma, considering that [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything the humans also feed and water them and clean their cage]]. This dilemma eventually fueled Justin (wants to live completely independent from the humans) and Jenner's (wants to continue siphoning energy from the humans, at the risk of their cats and tractors) fight.

This list shows the last 10 events of 34. Show all.
