Doctor...(door opens)Eiffel: Ah, Doctor Hilbert! Thank goodness, there you are! I need help. Hilbert: Officer Eiffel. What seems to be the problem?Eiffel: I - I don’t know. I feel like nothing I do sounds the way it ought to. The funny parts aren’t funny. The exciting parts aren’t exciting. It’s like I’ve lost the script on my whole life. Hilbert: I see. Do not be worried, Officer Eiffel. Problem is serious but there is simple solution. Eiffel: Is the great clown Pagliacci in town?Hilbert: Even better.(music abruptly changes, replaced by a more playful melody)Hilbert: Podcast creator Gabriel Urbina is offering online workshop on how to write the great audio fiction. Eiffel: He is?Hilbert: He is. Is comprehensive journey through the building blocks of gripping podcast stories. Eiffel: Does it cover the basics of how to write scenes without any visuals?Hilbert: Absolutely. But it goes beyond that. It explains how audio fiction can do things no other medium does, such as making the audience imagine visuals that cannot be seen. Eiffel: You mean like that weird room in the back of the station, where the walls are painted a color that’s darker than black? Hilbert: Precisely. Or the way you can introduce a new detail into scene and completely change audience’s understanding of what was happening. Eiffel: Oh! Is that why you’re dressed up as a Teletubby? To illustrate that concept?Hilbert: Uh... no. I am wearing this for... my own purposes. Do not ask any more questions about the outfit. Eiffel: I am not going to ask any more questions about the outfit. Well, Doc, I have to say I’m sold. (a laminated card is placed on the table)Eiffel: Will my insurance cover this?Hilbert: Eiffel, you know very well that Goddard Futuristics does not offer health insurance to independent contractors such as yourself.Eiffel: Awww man...Hilbert: This is Dave and Busters gift card. Eiffel: But it's still valid! Hilbert: But: more good news. There are scholarship opportunities available for students and others who need them. Visit website for more information. Eiffel: (leaving) Amazing. Doc, this sounds exactly like what I needed. How can I repay you? Hilbert: No need, happy to be of assistance. (lower) Besides, genetic materials nanobots collected while you were in laboratory will be perfectly adequate display of gratitude. Eiffel: What was that, doc?Hilbert: Nothing, Officer Eiffel, nothing!
