Scene 32: The Flooding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are inside a bus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Papaia and the others, after a few days of disasters, are arriving at the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: You had a good idea this time, Papaia, to take the bus so we don\u2019t risk making a mistake!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Papaia: If only that taxi driver at the airport hadn\u2019t run off without giving us the change…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banani: Guys! I was thinking about Papaia\u2019s sermon yesterday…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Papaia: Hey! It wasn\u2019t a sermon, it was a reflection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: Thinking about it, Papaia, you\u2019d fit well in the pulpit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Papaia: Oh, Ravioli! Stop teasing me! I\u2019m a scientist, not a pastor!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: Sorry, Reverend Papaia!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banani: Stop interrupting me, Ravioli. I was saying that Paul\u2019s words, which Papaia quoted, made me think. What if it\u2019s true that we\u2019re lying to ourselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: Then it would just be a matter of opening our eyes…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Papaia: Speaking of opening our eyes… here we are at the Springfield Illinois conference center. This time we\u2019re on time and at the right address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are at the entrance of the conference center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They show their tickets and enter the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Banani: Isn\u2019t it amazing? We made it, and we still have an hour to relax before the conference starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: Look over there. There are the restrooms. Since there\u2019s time, I\u2019ll go there for a moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are in front of the conference center restrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As Ravioli heads to the facilities, he encounters a plumber at work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plumber: Excuse me, sir! The restrooms are out of order! There are others on the first floor…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli is speaking quietly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli (whispering): Ugh! It\u2019s so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plumber: Sorry, can you repeat? I didn\u2019t hear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: I said: please, it\u2019s an emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plumber: Look, it won\u2019t take long… I\u2019ll finish in five minutes…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: Please, I have incontinence…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plumber: Fine, use the staff restroom, but… make sure… not to flush. It\u2019s very important you remember this. I repeat, do not flush under any circumstances!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: Ugh! It\u2019s so unpleasant to leave the restroom dirty… But okay, deal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli then uses the staff restroom. As he finishes, he thinks about the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: I still can\u2019t believe it… We\u2019ve arrived at the famous dark matter conference… This year\u2019s keynote speaker will be Bart Bluejeans… He\u2019ll talk about his famous quantum nothing theory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli, still lost in his thoughts, finishes his business and, as usual, flushes the toilet. Immediately, strange noises of broken pipes are heard. Water begins to spout from several points on the restroom walls. Embarrassed, Ravioli exits the restrooms as quickly as possible without being noticed by the plumber, who is focused on tightening a pipe with a wrench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ravioli: Today I discovered that there are different types of plumbing emergencies in restrooms!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
