  Tom : Heh-hee-hee. That's what I call a trolley.

  Wesley : Probably the finest trolley in captivity.

  Smiler : Huh. That's because you made it.

  Wesley : That's because I'm encouraging you to like it. Because I've decided that you ought to road-test it.

  Smiler : Eh? If everybody's in love with this trolley, how comes I'm the one who's got to ride it?

  Wesley : You've got the legs for it. I noticed instantly.

  Tom : Come on, Smiler. It'll put some sparkle back into your life.

  Smiler : What makes you think I haven't got sparkle?

  Wesley : A wild guess.

  Tom : Sparkle? You need a jump start! Think on it; you've lost your taste for simple pleasures.

  Smiler : What's simple about risking your life in that?

  Wesley : Almost no risk. Really.

  Tom : One time of day you'd have been thrilled to bits to risk your life in this. It's time you recaptured the thrill of things, rediscovered your childlike joy.
