(with their free hands, Charlie and Jenna reach out to each other, joining hands. At the same moment, they simultaneously turn their keys, thus signing their own death warrants by assuring the launch of the retaliatory missiles)
All systems activated.

Launch complete.
(as the lights begin to flicker, Alice steps between Charlie and Jenna, taking each of them by the hand)

Playback Tips: The sound files are in mono format. I am using Sound Machine as a "Helper Application" to play these au format files back on the Macintosh. I have noticed on my system (which is optimized for stereo playback) that unless the volume of the empty channel is disabled or turned all the way down, the empty channel will add hiss to the channel with the sound. If you experience hiss during playback, you should try to disable playback of the empty channel. If you are listening through external amplification as I am, this may merely require panning your balance control all the way to one side.
