INT. ALBERT EINSTEIN'S STUDY. DAY.
EINSTEIN, WITH HIS MASSIVE WILD HAIR, IS PACING THE ROOM. HIS FRIEND, GUNTHER, SITS IN ARMCHAIR.
GUNTHER: Are you sure this is what you want, Albert?
EINSTEIN: Completely und utterly!
GUNTHER: But you're so good at all this, the mathematics und whatnot.
EINSTEIN: Mathematics Schmathematics! There are more important things in life than Mathematics!
GUNTHER: You discovered the law of the photoelectric effect, Albert. That's quite important.
EINSTEIN: It's not enough, Gunther! I have so much more to offer!
GUNTHER: I'm sure you do but is this really the direction you want to pursue?
EINSTEIN: Ja! I'm absolutely sure that my life will truly be complete und meaningful once I have explained the dangers of exposed wiring to the general public through the medium of puppetry!
GUNTHER: I had no idea the issue of exposed wiring was so important to you.
EINSTEIN: Of course it is! (POINTS AT HIS WILD HAIR) You think I was born like this?! No, I have an exposed wire to thank for this monstrosity! If only I had been given the correct safety advice in my younger years! Preferably by a cute und sympathetic anthropomorphic figure that was both fun und informative!
GUNTHER: I agree it is a pity about your hair but...
EINSTEIN: No one should suffer like this again! I shall not rest until every man woman und child is made aware of the terrible dangers of exposed wiring in an accessible and entertaining manner!
GUNTHER: I applaud your public spirit, Albert, but I must advise you against abandoning your important scientific explorations for this...it just seems so...insane.
EINSTEIN: Ha! They said I was insane when I discovered the special theory of relativity!
GUNTHER: No, they didn't.
EINSTEIN: They were thinking it!
GUNTHER: No, Albert, they were really impressed.
EINSTEIN: Ha! Well, if they thought that was impressive, just wait until they meet 'Bingo the Safety Bear'!
EINSTEIN DIVES UNDER HIS DESK. GUNTHER ROLLS HIS EYES.
CUT TO EINSTEINS DESK. A HAND-PUPPET BEAR POPS INTO VIEW
EINSTEIN V.O: Guten Morgen, Ladies und Gentlemen! Ich bin Bingo der Safety Bear und I have important advice regarding the correct safety procedure regarding exposed wiring in the home und workplace!
GUNTHER LOOKS AT HIS WATCH
GUNTHER: Albert, I have to be going now...
EINSTEIN V.O: Schweinhund! I am not Albert! I am Bingo the Safety Bear!
GUNTHER: Auf wiedersehen, Albert.
EINSTEIN V.O: You cannot leave yet, Gunther! I am Bingo the Safety Bear und I have not yet made you fully aware of the hazards inherent in exposed wiring!
GUNTHER SHAKES HIS HEAD IN DISBELIEF AS HE EXITS
EINSTEIN'S OTHER HAND POPS UP AND PLACES A SMALL TROPHY ON THE TABLE, HIS PUPPET GRABS IT.
EINSTEIN V.O: For me? Oh, what an honour! I did not even know there was a Nobel Prize for Electric Safety Advice!
