Today, Andrew said that the reason he always took the stairs (thereby improving his health considerably, according to a new study: https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2024/04/29/1247532191/longevity-stairs-climbing-exercise-heart-disease), is that he's been stuck on the elevator more than once! In response, Rhiannon admitted that she's *never* gotten stuck on the elevator, which apparently dooms her to some sort of elevator-related malfunction in the not-too-distant future (sorry about that!).
Uh oh. Brings to mind the elevator scene in one of my favorite movies (which had a dual theatre and also tv release, so gets both credits..), "Paper Man", 1971 [a]. Yes, with Tina Chen, Stefanie Powers, and some others. There's a scene where one of the students is trapped in an elevator stuck between floors, and he decides to force the doors open and, well, gets halfway out... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_Man_(1971_film)
