Briefly!

Downtown, average-sized town, day. A construction worker wearing a hardhat and toolbelt straddles a utility pole, readying to climb. One hand on a climbing bar, one hand on his cell, his biceps glisten in the early morning light.

Construction Worker (into phone): No. See, you wash the pasta in the marinade, just briefly.

He tilts his head to the side, waiting and listening for a response.

Construction Worker (into phone): BRIEFLY!

Fin.
