Place this clip over the final beat of a fail sequence, after the mistake has already landed. For a longer montage, follow it with the hello darkness my old friend button, or end a cutaway gag by switching to the directed by robert b weide button instead.
About this sound
This 25-second clip is a sad song built from a cat's drawn-out meows, arranged like a little lament instead of a normal meow sound effect. It feels pitiful and theatrical at once, turning a tiny moment of disappointment into something melodramatically heartbroken, which is why the mournful meowing lands as both sad and funny.
