(The scene: The uber high tech penthouse/fortress of Sir Richard Branson. Think Bauhaus meets James Bond bad guy lair, vaguely menacing John Barry music in the background. Enter Sir Richard himself clad in a backward kilt)
Sir Richard: Attend to me Flunkies
(Flunkies appear stage right and surround Sir Richard)
Flunkies (murmuring) : Sir Richard, yes, yes, Sir Richard, mumble
Sir Richard: You notice that I am wearing a kilt.
Flunkies (murmuring) : Sir Richard, yes, yes, Sir Richard, mumble
Sir Richard: A kilt is a Scottish garment which I am wearing because I am cool, daring, and eccentric.
Flunkies (murmuring) : Sir Richard, yes, yes, Sir Richard, mumble
Flunkie with tiny measure of backbone: Sir Richard I don't think you are...
Sir Richard: You disagree with me! Flunkies hurl this fool from the penthouse!
(The Flunkies hurl the F.W.T.M.o.B. out the window.)
F.W.T.M.o.B. : Aaaarrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhh (distant splat)
Sir Richard: A kilt is a Scottish garment which I am wearing because I am cool, daring, and eccentric.
Flunkies (murmuring) : Sir Richard, yes, yes, Sir Richard, mumble
