Quotes:

Narrator: It was a day like many another, and Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Brainsample were a perfectly ordinary couple leading perfectly ordinary lives. The sort of people to whom nothing extraordinary ever happened - and not the kind of people to be the center of one of the most astounding incidents in the history of mankind... So let's forget about them and follow instead the destiny of this man...
