Crash Test

[first lines]

Narrator:
A train is designed to travel in one direction only, forward. Its path is forever dictated by the track beneath it. It has no choice. Thus, collision with other trains is avoided. The car on the other hand, is designed to maneuver in infinite directions. This is not a problem until other cars are added to the equation. They, of course, are also moving in infinite possible directions. Indeed, on one road at any one time there may be thousands of such creatures, each moving on their own individual path. Collision, therefore, can be delayed by the careful driver, but eventual contact is inevitable. Thus, it is in the nature of automobiles to crash into one another. Their very being, their very freedom dictates it. Some companies have known this fault since the car was first invented, and they have sought to find a cure, at whatever the cost.

Cindy Geeds:
Good morning. This is a pre-recorded message being brought to you by Cindy Geeds. A friend has ordered you a MOTORKORE wakeup call, for...

synthesized voice:
6:30 AM

Cindy Geeds:
So chin up chum. You're a beautiful, beautiful human being, and the world is your sunshine. So make the most of it. And have a happy MOTORKORE day. Bye!

Cindy Geeds:
I've got a life time of farts bottle up inside of me waiting to get out.

My advice is to hold on to your memories, your quirks, your personality - all the baggage you wish you never had when you were free - all that garbage suddenly becomes your one key to sanity.

Valeriy:
You are a crash test dummy. Your job is to run into things when told. Don't go looking for sympathy from me, I can't do anything about it. So trust me, when you hit a wall at 300 clicks an hour, ka-poh, it hurts me just as much as it hurts you.

Valeriy:
Now you're learning. I'm gonna make a mean-ass, tire-burning crash test dummy out of you yet.

47109:
Listen, crash test testing is like going to the bathroom. You open the door, you sit down, you dream of Brigitte Bardot. And then after it's all over, you wipe yourself clean.

Abby:
It's not every day that you find out that your boyfriend is a mannequin.

47109:
We're machines, aren't we kid. They screwed up our bodies so much that they don't even know what they've done. Stopping the circulation of the blood through the veins is a skill that we have, and they don't know sh*t. Potential total control of the physical facilities. It's not a shovel, it's not a pistol, but it can be used as a tool.

47109:
The world has a rule, my friend. That things cannot be achieved because they are impossible. It is time to ask yourself, am I one who believes in rules, or am I a true crash test dummy? One who experiments with the boundaries of both the physical and mental worlds. For they are connected more than you realize.

Abby:
[last lines - voice mail greeting] Hi, you've called Abby. You know what to do...

Sala:
Hi Abby, it's Sala. I'm coming home. There's just one final thing I need to do for an old friend first. So I don't know if you have any shares in MOTORKORE, but if you do, I'd sell 'em first.
