The word from the street
PHILIP
“You can’t ride your bike anymore, eh?
TONY
“Nope, no way. The legs just aren’t there anymore, if you know what I mean. Now I gotta walk everywhere and, I’ll tell you, that hurts but at least I can do it. What a guy needs is one of those instant transporters from Star Trek.”
TONY
“Check these out. I had to go across the bridge five times for my friend, you know, and I’ve been banging myself up. I’m getting too old for this bike.”
TONY
“Hey Phil. How’re doing this morning?”
PHILIP
“I’m tired and I feel like crap.”
TONY
“You’re definitely not alone on that one, if you know what I mean.”
TONY
“Look what I got.”
PHILIP
“No.”
TONY
“Yup, two of ’em. $220 for breaking the Highway Traffic Act.”
PHILIP
“What for?”
“Well, I didn’t come to a complete stop at a stop sign and also I didn’t have a bell.”
PHILIP
“They’re hittiing you up for $110 for not coming to a complete stop on your bicycle?”
TONY
“Yup. They got me on that one.”
