(Spotlight comes up on a Superhero, Speedo, sitting in a chair. A figure sits near him but in the darkness.)
SPEEDO
I'm fast... so fast no one can see me. I thought I had something special... something I could help people with, but it ended up being a joke. Everyone started calling me Speedo. That's one of them guy's swim suits... not a flattering one either... Have you seen a guy in a speedo? Yuck.
DOCTOR
How fast are you?
SPEEDO
You know that pen that was in your pocket a second ago? Here it is.
DOCTOR
That is fast.
(Doctor thinks.)
DOCTOR (CONT.)
How about a chocolate fudge candy bar... wait... with almonds.
(Speedo holds it out to her.)
SPEEDO
That's what everyone wants me to do... fetch stuff... I should be called Errand Boy.
DOCTOR
And that's why you want to get rid of your power... this burden that haunts you... it ruins your life.
SPEEDO
Yes.
DOCTOR
I can do that for you... I can take away this hardship in your life... this curse... forever.
*Dramatic superhero music*
Speedo and Doctor exit.
