Episode 87: Accident Prone Enlightenment

Mazolli trips over a flap of carpet between the living room and the kitchen. He gets a hammer and some nails and begins to tack down the flap. He hits his thumb with the hammer. Goddamn fuck! he yells and stands up quickly, knocking a lamp to the floor. It breaks and sparks, setting the carpet afire. Mazolli gets the kettle from the stove to douse the flames. As he returns to the broken lamp, he trips over the flap of carpet again. He falls onto the flame, extinguishing it. He lies in the dissipating smoke, savoring the stillness.
