The Seat Next to the Toilet

Papaia and the others take their seats on the plane.

Their seats are right next to the toilet.

Ravioli

Oh, come on! Right here? Next to the toilet?

Papaia

What’s wrong with that? It’s just another seat.

Ravioli laughs.

The snack trolley comes by. Ravioli takes out the sandwiches he’s brought from home.

Banani

Have you got one for me too?

Ravioli

Of course. I’ve got enough for everyone.

Papaia watches them eat.

Ravioli

Want one?

Papaia

Not right now. Maybe later.

The flight continues. Some passengers eat, while others sleep.

After a while, Papaia gets hungry.

Papaia

Pass me a sandwich, Ravioli.

Ravioli

Sure, here you go…

As Papaia unwraps his sandwich, a rather overweight woman hurries towards the toilet and locks herself inside.

Just as Papaia is about to take his first bite, an unbearable stench starts coming from the toilet.

The toilet flushes, and the woman emerges from the cramped cubicle, sweating profusely.

Disgusted, Papaia puts his sandwich away.

Igor

It’s just another seat… as long as you stay away from it at mealtimes.

The woman gets halfway down the aisle, stops, then turns around and heads back towards the toilet.
