I wrote this with my friend Ben.
Arnold (Schwarzenegger) is walking down the street when a barker hands him a flyer for Rekall–a place where memories of vacations are injected into your mind.
Arnold: Dah, I tell you what: I could really use a vacation right now.
Flyer Guy: You should go to Rekall; it’s like being on a vacation.
Arnold: Yah, but I actually wanna go.
Flyer Guy: It’ll be just like you’ve gone.
Arnold: I don’t want a stupid, virtual vacation!
Flyer Guy: It’s not a virtual vacation, okay? It’s memories of a vacation.
Arnold: Yah, and I’d remember that I didn’t go.
Flyer Guy: Look, it’s just like going, but better.
Arnold: How is it better?
Flyer Guy: For three thousand dollars you can go anywhere–even Mars!
Arnold: For that much money I can just go to Mars!
Flyer Guy: Who wants to deal with all that flying!
Arnold: Me!
Flyer Guy: And the crime!
Arnold: I can fight crime!
Flyer Guy: What about your job?
Arnold: I’ll quit–and fight crime on Mars! I’ll send you a postcard!
Flyer Guy: But you don’t actually have to go! It just takes an hour; and they inject the memories right into your brain.
Arnold: Yah, that sounds really great. But, I tell you what: you do it!
Arnold shoves the flyer back into the barker’s hands and walks off.
