FADE IN:
INT. IT OFFICE - DAY
THOMAS (35) in geeky business-casual wear, faces down MADISON
(25) and TYLER (25), who look oddly cheerful.
THOMAS
You let a computer virus take down
the entire cell phone network.
The other two keep grinning. Tyler shrugs.
THOMAS
It got in through the Skype
gateway, hopped over the POTS
connection to our CO, infected
every single backhaul, and soon
every repeater in the city was
stuck in an infinite loop.
The other two keep grinning.
MADISON
Yup!
THOMAS
You two are supposed to monitor all
of that!
TYLER
Oops!
THOMAS
We had to zero-boot the whole
system! You killed the cell-phone
network for the whole city!
The other two keep grinning.
THOMAS
Why are you smiling?
MADISON
We're quitting our jobs --
TYLER
-- and going into MUSICAL THEATER!
Beat.
THOMAS
Yeah. You can go now.
FADE OUT.
