The scene begins with a balding repairman who’s putting in piping for a badminton court. He has a long metal pipe and his trying to jam it into a hole in the grass. The camera pulls back to show the man drop the pipe into the hole. The pipe disappears and the repairman puts his face into the hole to se where it went. A blast of water hits the repairman in the face. The voice over narrates the repairman’s thoughts. Next the scene cuts to a far shot of a man on a badminton court. He hits three birdies into the opposing side’s corner, than he hits a forth birdie in the middle of the three he’d already hit. Then there’s a peep hole shot of the four birdies on the court. The scene returns to the repairman who is on a ladder with a sledgehammer. He is pounding a long pipe into the grass, but the other end is coming out through another hole.
