Two boys are riding their bikes on a deserted road.  A power line 
sits in the road, twitching and buzzing with electricity.  Note
that neither kid is wearing a red #9 football jersey.

			BOY WITH RED 'R' HAT
		Look, the storm knocked down that big wire!

			PATENTLY STUPID KID
		Hey, let's jump our bikes over it!

			BOY WITH RED 'R' HAT
		Nah, we'd better move it off the road.

They move closer to the power line.  Dramatic, high-pitched violin 
music plays in the background.  Suddenly, a Jeep marked "G.I. JOE 
POWER AND LIGHT CO." pulls up.  A black man in camoflauge is driving.
It is ROADBLOCK, whose lines in the show always rhyme, but who will 
not be rhyming today.

			ROADBLOCK
		No!  You'd better leave that power line right where 
		it is!  There's enough electricity there to fry an
		elephant!

			PATENTLY STUPID KID
			(now wearing a #9 football jersey)
		We didn't think it was dangerous!

			ROADBLOCK
		You'd have found out too late!  Remember, never play
		around electrical wires or you could be playing with
		fire!

			PATENTLY STUPID KID
		Now we know!

			ROADBLOCK
		And knowing is half the battle!
