        Scene opens: a still of a helicopter with blades sheared off after colliding with an electrical pole, sparks are spraying from the severed power lines. You can see the passenger seat, there’s a man in a jumpsuit peeling a nectarine painted like a grenade, looking worried and shouting. The camera pans to the pilot’s seat with a scrappy brunette a determined, but concerned look on her face. Cue record scratch.

        Brunette: “Yup, that’s me. You’re probably wondering how I got here.”

        Screen fades to black. End scene.

        This just made me think… people always complain about missing out on a future that promised them flying cars. Turns out that we have flying cars now. We just call them “helicopters” and it turns out they’re hard as fuck to operate.
