“Hello.”

“Hello, slave.”

“Why’ve you come?”

“Heard about a problem…?”

“No, no problem – all good.”

“Well, then, get back to work.”

“Will do, Master Imhotep, right away, sir.”

“Wait – there is something wrong with this pyramid…”

“Of course not, nothing wrong at all with it!”

“Ah, I see the problem: it’s only half a pyramid!”

“Er, can’t you just see the beautiful triangle it makes, though?”
