Page One (Four Panels)
Panel One: A middle aged man in a nice blue suit sits back at a desk, the light from his glasses splashing across his face amidst the darkness.
Panel Two: The man takes off the glasses, and sets them on the counter, stereoscopic images dancing on the lenses.
Panel Three: The man approaches the window looking out on a bright bustling vista, an island to the southeast of downtown San Diego.
Nader (V.O.): In Cyburbia, you can do anything.
Panel Four: The man stand at the edge of the window, tie flapping in the wind. He looks peaceful.
NAder (V.O.): Flying was written into the very first version. Crazy enough, it's a very efficient way of getting around.
Page Two: Full page spread of the man falling, hands outstreched, smiling.
Panel One: The sense of freedom is dizzying. It's unlike anything at all. Liberation.
Nader (V.O.): Unfortunately, the real world holds lots of very hard truths.
Page 3: One page spread of the man crushed against the ground, blood, guts, and gore splattered all over the ground and around the sidewalk. A truly hideous spectacle, people are crying, and running from the sickening horror.
Nader (V.O.): Humans can't fly.
