![[Scene is a 19th century drawing room with a sign outside saying TRANSPORT INVENTORS CLUB. Inside, the German Engineer KARL BENZ is addressing a meeting of gentlemen about his new transport idea]
1
KARL BENZ:
OK guys - you’re gonna love this
2
KARL BENZ:
So it’s like, a box made of metal that goes at up to 120 miles an hour, yeah?
[Karl shows them a diagram of a car]
3
KARL BENZ:
And your drive it down one side of the road, and the boxes going the other way go on the opposite side, so we don’t need to build two roads!
4
OTHER GUY:
What’s down the middle?
KARL BENZ:
A white line.
5
OTHER GUY:
So like, a white barrier…
KARL BENZ:
No a white line. Drawn on the floor.
6
OTHER GUY:
And who’s piloting these machines?
KARL BENZ:
I was thinking: random members of the public.
7
[Pause, the other guys all look with concern at Karl]
8
OTHER GUY:
Karl are you OK
KARL BENZ:
No listen it’s fine
9
OTHER GUY:
You know we’re worried about you, don’t you?
KARL BENZ:
No really it’ll work -
10
KARL BENZ:

11
OTHER GUY:
Is that normal like the ‘commuter travel device’ you brought in last week which was just…
12
OTHER GUY:
…an iron maiden fired from a catapult?
[The other guy displays a diagram of an iron maiden being fired from a catapult]
KARL BENZ:
THAT WOULD’VE WORKED!
