When your DNA gets damaged during mitosis, there's really only one cellular response: dramatic self-destruction! Cells take their genetic integrity VERY seriously—it's either perfect replication or cellular suicide. That cat holding the gun is basically the p53 protein in disguise, the "guardian of the genome" that's like: "You messed up your chromosomes? Sorry buddy, time to activate apoptosis!" Biology's version of "if you can't handle the heat, just blow up the whole kitchen."
