SFX Dinnertime sounds in a family home. A baby’s cries fill the room.
DAD Come on, sweetheart. You have to eat your peas. Look! Here comes the Choo-Choo train!
The baby immediately stops crying. We transition to an adult clearing their throat.
BABY Seriously Father? The ‘Choo-Choo’ train? And what category of modern transport does that fall under? Imaginary?
I mean, if we’re going to assign meaningless metaphors for a spoonful of peas, why don’t we get contemporary while we’re at it? ‘Here comes the self-driving car?’
Okay, that doesn’t quite have the same ring to it but what about, ‘here’s the supersonic hyperloop'. Or, or maybe, ‘open up for the particle accelerator!’ ‘All aboard the hoverboard’ perhaps? No?
