Picture	Segment	Description
	SCENE 1	Susan has been summoned by Oscar to work on the Sloppy Jalopy. He tells her the engine is making a repetitive "tink-tink" noise, but rather than fix it he wants it adjusted to a different noise that he would enjoy. Susan futzes around and the engine makes various other rhythmic noises, none of which pleases Oscar. Susan gets so frustrated by Oscar's constant yelling and rudeness that she slams the hood down, causing the engine to sound just as he wants it. ("Mario Andretti, eat your heart out!")
