Political correctness gone mad

"I left him, sobbing into a cage of scorpions - which aren't insects so I don't know what they were doing there - and moved on to Laura from Sloths.

LAURA: I can't stop to talk, I'm sorry, they're going absolutely beserk! Daniel put that down! They're always like this after a shift. Mandolyn, stop chasing Andrew! It's just... they're out there for 8 hours, just hanging from their toes and doing nothing, so of course, they want to let off steam. Eddie put that down! Kathryn leave him alone! Felicity will you please stop juggling! What did you want anyway?

FINNEMORE: I was just going to inquire-

LAURA: Jonathan don't you run away! Don't you dare! OK I'm sorry, look I've really got to go and catch him, I'm so sorry!

[Sound of motorbike riding into distance]

FINNEMORE: Well you're not going to catch him now he's gone on that motorbike...

LAURA: No... No I realize that. I don't know why we gave them motorbikes... It's political correctness gone mad!

FINNEMORE: What's it got to do with political correctness?

LAURA: Well, nothing! That's the point! That's why it's gone mad! Normally when people say political correctness gone mad, what they mean is "political correctness I don't agree with". But in this case, political correctness... has given some sloths a motorbike. I mean, it has actually gone mad.

I left her chasing her sloths and stumbled away into the drizzle of the evening. I seemed no further forward then when I had begun, but one of them must be the mole..."
