Bus XLVI

Louisa: Sports Day soon

Jack: Oh yeah. I wonder if Bobby Langford can win back his long-jump record.

Louisa: What're you talking about? He still holds the record.

Jack: Nah, Moses Friar beat it last year. Don’t you remember his amazing jump?

Louisa: Moses did a good jump, sure...but Bobby still holds the record

Jack: Are you kidding me? Has Moses Friar’s achievement just been airbrushed out of history?

Louisa: Maybe you’re thinking of that jump where he was disqualified for going past the line

Jack: I’m telling you, he beat the record. You’ve just forgotten.

Louisa: Whatever

Jack: If people are forgetting this, who knows what else they're forgetting? It's all very well for the majority to partake of that mindless boogie you call the present, but a courageous few must safeguard past truths for future generations. This sacred duty...

Enter Scott

Louisa: Hey, who holds the Sports Day long-jump record?

Scott: Everyone knows that: Bobby Langford

Louisa: See!

Jack: Nah, Moses Friar beat it last year

Scott: Moses? He was home ill last Sports Day.

Jack: Shit, really? What about the year before that?

Scott: Did a good jump, but it was nowhere near Bobby's

Louisa: Thank God some of us are safeguarding past truths for future generations
