Storyboard Tekst
- And George, while his intelligence was way above normal, had a little mental handicap radio in his ear
- Hazel had a perfectly average intelligence, which meant she couldn't think about anything except in short bursts.
- Why don't you stretch out on the sofa, so's you can rest your handicap bag on the pillows, honeybunch... I don't care if you're not equal to me for a while.
- He began to think glimmeringly about his abnormal son who was now in jail, about Harrison, but a twenty-o ne-gun salute in his head stopped that.
- If I tried to get away with it, said George, then other people'd get away with it and pretty soon we'd be right back to the dark ages again, with everybody competing against everybody else.

- I am the Emperor! cried Harrison. Do you hear? I am the Emperor! Everybody must do what I say at once! He stamped his foot and the studio shook.

- Harrison and his Empress merely listened to the music for a while - listened gravely, as though synchronizing their heartbeats with it.
- I believe that Kurt Vonnegut wrote this short story as a way to show how crazy and wrong it can be to try to 'fit in'. When people hold themselves back from what they are gifted in, it can make life boring and overly simple. These scenes I chose show that. In result of the government, in this case, wanting everyone to be the same in everything, Harrison goes crazy because he believes that what is fair is to be yourself. Trying to make everything equal and fair can result in rebellion and other disruptive causes.
