What's going on?
TODD
Today's my birthday.
NEIL
Is today your birthday? Happy birthday. What did you get?
TODD
My parents gave me this.
NEIL
Isn't that the same deskset-
TODD
Yeah, they gave me the same thing as last year.
NEIL
Oh.
TODD
Oh.
NEIL
Maybe they thought you needed another one.
TODD
Maybe they weren't thinking about anything at all. Funny thing is about
this is I didn't even like it the first time.
NEIL
Todd, I think you're underestimating the value of this deskset. I mean
who would want a football or a baseball,
TODD
Or a car.
NEIL
Hmmm, or a car, if they could have a deskset as wonderful as this? If I
were ever going to buy a deskset, twice, I would probably buy this one,
both times. In fact, it's shape is, it's rather aerodynamic isn't it. You
can feel it, this deskset wants to fly. Todd?
(hands deskset to Todd)
The world's first unmanned flying deskset.
Todd chucks the deskset over the edge of the bridge and it falls to
pieces down below.
NEIL
Oh my! Well I wouldn't worry, you'll get another next year. |
