The Meow-Lin Monastery is a monastery that appeared in the Itchy & Scratchy episode "The Great Brawl of China".

Description

Scratchy takes the Shaolin Aptitude Test.

The monastery is located at the top of a hill, and there is a long flight of steps leading to the entrance. The monastery has a years-long, intense martial arts training program which culminates in the trainee taking the Shaolin Aptitude Test, abbreviated S.A.T. The trainee punches holes in a paper panel, which is fed into a computer. The computer then scores the trainee in the areas of "Punching", "Kicking" and "Badass".

History

Scratchy went to the monastery to train to get revenge on Itchy, who had killed Scratchy's grandfather. When Scratchy completed the program, his Shaolin Aptitude Test scores were as follows:

• 720 Punching
• 680 Kicking
• 790 Badass

After displaying Scratchy's scores, the computer pronounced him "Ready for Vengeance". Scratchy then journeyed to Itchy's monastery to confront him.
