There is a scene in Star Wars where the heroes are in a trash compactor on the Death Star with the walls closing in. I'm reminded of that this morning, except for perhaps the stuff about the heroes.

2. Like in every multiple breakneck disaster situation

I hope someone is taking all this down!

3. But the heroes in SW

[Mrs. Overall]

5. Since Rather is saying that the "heroes" part isn't true, those in the compactor get squished.

[Amaryllis]

9. And the heroes are doing the squishing.
