Thank you Robert Sheckley, a ticket to the planet00:00:17
Tranai on a00:00:19
wonderful June day, a tall, thin,00:00:24
concentrated young man dressed in a strict style,00:00:26
Vol to the office of the00:00:30
space travel agency was not00:00:32
approved Even with a sidelong glance, a00:00:35
tourist poster advertising a00:00:37
Martian harvest festival, a huge00:00:40
panoramic photograph with a dancing triga00:00:43
Neu, also did not attract his attention;00:00:46
they left him indifferent; the romantic00:00:48
rituals of meeting the sun on Piu 2.00:00:52
The visitor only stayed behind the00:00:54
ticket seller’s foundation. “I need to go to Tranai,”00:00:58
said the young man, he closed the book00:01:01
necessary. inventions And00:01:03
tranai frowned tranai isn’t this one00:01:07
of Kent’s satellites 4 No - answered00:01:11
the Visitor tranai - the planet is circulating00:01:30
Hmm - he said finally at this job00:01:32
you learn something new every day00:01:35
So you need a ticket to the next Mr.00:01:38
goodman Marvin goodman goodman it looks like this is00:01:43
yours Tranai is near the devil in Kulichki, although00:01:47
within the Milky Way00:01:50
no one actually flies there. I know, so you00:01:53
will help me get to it, no matter how hard00:01:55
Goodman tried to hide his excitement, his00:01:58
tense voice betrayed him. The00:02:00
agent shook his head negative, it’s00:02:03
not in my power even charter flights00:02:06
no, it’s too far Help me fly00:02:09
at least as far as I wanted to go on an adventure00:02:12
interrupted The agent managed to note the non-00:02:14
athletic physique of his interlocutor and00:02:17
his intellectual stoop Allow me to00:02:20
suggest Africans 2 a primitive world00:02:23
where there are enough wild tribes and saber-toothed00:02:26
animals and ferns of cannibals00:02:31
rodak and everything else of the same kind00:02:34
every 5 days an00:02:36
expedition from New York is sent there to combine00:02:39
extreme risk with absolute00:02:41
safety. You will definitely bring00:02:44
home a dinosaur head or get your00:02:47
money back. Tranai repeated Goodman,00:02:50
seeing his stubbornly pursed lips and00:02:53
uncompromisingly shiny eyes.00:03:02
same on Almar00:03:04
dotri pearl belts Southern ridge00:03:08
ten-day tour All inclusive up to an00:03:11
excursion to two distilleries and the00:03:14
Zinta factory where you can00:03:16
buy real00:03:19
Zinta belts shoes and00:03:22
pocket books on Almar dotri with phenomenal discounts very00:03:25
beautiful cheerful and delightfully00:03:28
naive girls for them The tourist is the00:03:31
highest and most desirable type of human00:03:33
being. In addition, tranai - the00:03:37
goodman minted as close to him as possible, the clerk00:03:40
frowned and took out a pile of tickets on the00:03:44
Queen of the constellation, you can fly to00:03:47
GIS two and then transfer to the glitter00:03:49
of the Galaxy which will take you to the minds,00:03:52
then a spaceship of local lines will take you00:03:54
with stops at hang pann kung00:03:58
incha and oyster to tung radar 400:04:02
unless it breaks down on the way from there00:04:05
by charter you will exchange the galactic Vortex,00:04:07
provided that it allows itself to00:04:09
pass and get to lum sri jiya and00:04:12
then the mail ship will allow you to00:04:14
reach belis maran I hope mail00:04:17
ships there are still plying there in00:04:19
total, it will be halfway, how can you00:04:23
overcome the second half, I wo00:04:26
n’t be able to tell you perfectly,” Goode concluded00:04:31
the document, nodded and in desperation00:04:35
asked Mr. Goode, what is00:04:38
your country and where are you so00:04:40
eager for00:04:41
utopia, the young man answered with a Blissful smile a00:04:46
man almost his entire life, Marvin00:04:49
Goodman spent almost half a century in Kirk in the state of New Jersey.00:05:13
while the00:05:15
powerful of this world built houses for themselves, higher and00:05:18
higher, swimming pools, ever00:05:21
longer, stables, ever warmer. Yes, the population00:05:25
accepted it, but did not accept it00:05:29
for justice, he wrote whistleblower00:05:32
articles, none of which were00:05:34
published, sent letters to Congress that were00:05:37
never read by anyone, voted for00:05:40
honest candidates, he invariably00:05:44
lost to the League for the Development of Civil00:05:46
Society, the Union of the People against00:05:52
Gangsterito opponents of gambling,00:05:55
the Committee for the Struggle for Equal00:05:56
Professional Opportunities for Women00:05:59
and a dozen other similar organizations,00:06:02
the result was zero, the apathetic00:06:05
population of the Town did not accept any00:06:08
of these good initiatives, the politicians simply00:06:11
laughed at Goodman, he he was not one of those00:06:14
who easily endure ridicule and as if there weren’t enough00:06:17
troubles accumulated, he was abandoned by his00:06:19
fiancée00:06:29
and the corporation’s axe, and it was a00:06:32
crushing blow, it seems the girl was not00:06:35
embarrassed Even by the fact that the00:06:38
sand content in the slabs and SCS blocks many times00:06:41
exceeded the norm And it’s easy to crawl between the reinforcement and00:06:44
concrete00:06:46
Well and that’s why she retorted, come to00:06:49
terms with it Marvy, that’s how the world works It’s time for you00:06:53
to become a realist, but that was not00:06:55
Goodman’s intention to mend He sent a broken heart00:07:00
to the Moonlight bar so that, while00:07:03
drinking strong drinks, he00:07:05
could reflect on the advantages of00:07:07
living alone in a hut in the middle of a green00:07:14
Venusian straight line like a pole with00:07:17
hawk-like features, a00:07:19
gait constrained by gravity, a pale00:07:23
skin stained with radiation burns, a00:07:25
piercing gaze, as if looking into the distance, of00:07:28
gray Mr. Goodman unmistakably identified an00:07:31
experienced starship, pour me a00:07:35
special Sam of Tranaisky turned to the bartender00:07:38
space wolf for a second Captain00:07:41
Savage Tranaisky whispered against his will00:07:45
Goodman Yes son of Tranai that I have never00:07:49
heard of the throne no sir answered honestly00:07:53
Good Okay son - said Captain Savage00:07:57
I'm in the mood for a conversation today So00:08:01
you will now hear the tale of the blessed00:08:04
one about the one behind the galactic00:08:08
vortex, the eyes of the old Cosmonaut are like a00:08:11
smoke underneath and a smile softened the harsh00:08:15
line of his mouth in those harsh times00:08:20
Space gave birth to steel ships and00:08:23
iron men sat in them to fill the holds of00:08:27
swearing, we were forged and like the frog Lars00:08:32
were ready to fly even to the underworld Yes, we would have00:08:35
Beelzebub himself for Shanghai and forced00:08:38
the deck to scrub there would be00:08:40
a shortage of people in the team Cosmic malaria at that00:08:43
time felled every third person on the00:08:51
interstellar 342 Aa in the hotel red00:08:55
rooster owner Mogan Zava z dollars for a00:09:00
mug of beer and receiving them because00:09:03
for 10 million miles around she had no00:09:07
competitors along the Star Ridge then00:09:10
scabies mites blew up and00:09:12
heading to the pron the ships were00:09:15
forced to overcome the go-ahead00:09:18
gauntlet In general, son, you00:09:21
can easily imagine what I experienced one00:09:23
fine day when I accidentally came across a00:09:26
tranai, as I00:09:29
listened to Goodman's story of the captain about the glorious00:09:32
bygone years about fragile ships against the backdrop of the00:09:35
cast-iron sky flying outward only00:09:38
forward to the distant borders of the Galaxy and00:09:42
there, on the edge of the Great Nothingness, lies00:09:45
tranai tranai, where human beings who00:09:49
have found the True Path are no longer chained00:09:52
to the wheel of existence tranai, on which00:09:56
happiness reigns, peace, creation, beating00:09:59
T Whose inhabitants are not ascetics, God-seeker00:10:23
[music]00:10:29
sipping a gray exotic mixture, the00:10:33
young man indulged in dreams Finally,00:10:36
he carefully asked question Captain00:10:40
Why did you come back the old man shrugged00:10:44
Yes he tortured me Space gout wrote00:10:48
me off as a frequent case We at that time You see, we00:10:51
almost didn’t know advanced medicine and where do00:10:54
you work now asked Hood00:10:59
Corporation Serka - the old man sighed, after all, he00:11:02
once commanded a fifty nozzle clip00:11:06
you know E what they make concrete here Okay to00:11:10
hell maybe one more for the beautiful00:11:13
tranai and one more was repeated00:11:17
several times when the young man00:11:19
left the bar he already saw a way out of the dead end00:11:23
somewhere in the Universe the optimal00:11:26
way of life for society was found there the00:11:29
oldest dream of humanity came true The dream of00:11:33
perfection is nothing Marvin Goodman would not have been otherwise,00:11:37
in the morning he quit from the00:11:40
East Coast robots company where he worked as a00:11:43
designer and took all his savings from the bank,00:11:47
he decided to fly to Tranai00:11:51
Queen of the constellation Brought him to lega sa00:11:54
2 oblez Galaxy to his mind after visiting mahan00:11:59
ichan pann kungi and the unique oyster00:12:07
the provincial one passed the galactic Vortex00:12:10
and got to Belis Maran, where00:12:14
earthly power ended, for a lot of money, a ship of00:12:17
local lines took him to 22 from there on a00:12:21
cargo ship. Goodman00:12:25
headed to the place where he was,00:12:29
but he spent his time wisely, going through00:12:32
hypnopedia, he was00:12:39
taken to the planet ding on00:12:43
ding, he was arrested, mistaking him for a haist00:12:46
spy trace, but he managed to escape and00:12:49
get on board the rocket, transporting ore00:12:52
to the sea, he had to go to the hospital00:12:55
with frostbite, heat poisoning and00:12:58
superficial radiation burns. And00:13:01
yet, the day finally came when our00:13:04
traveler bought a ticket for the last00:13:06
flight, a direct flight to the end of his life it was hard00:13:11
to believe that the ship, having slipped between the00:13:13
satellites DOW and RI, landed at the00:13:17
Tranai00:13:18
spaceport when the locks opened Goodman00:13:21
realized that his mood was far from00:13:24
joyful, partly mental devastation00:13:27
could be explained by the00:13:29
fatigue he got from something bad, but there was a00:13:33
sudden fear of what if the idyllic00:13:35
Tranai turned out to be fiction, like the notorious00:13:39
Eldorado, to believe the story of the old00:13:41
Cosmonaut to cross the entire Galaxy and00:13:44
meet with a mirage, it seems to survive00:13:48
such disappointment will be00:13:50
impossible, he landed the city of the port of00:13:54
Tranai looked quite00:13:58
attractive, the shops were full of00:14:01
goods, the people on the counter were no different00:14:04
from other inhabitants of inhabited planets,00:14:06
except that the women were much more beautiful00:14:10
and that’s all there was00:14:12
a certain strangeness in this picture, something elusive but00:14:16
definitely wrong, something alien, the00:14:19
goodman did not immediately realize that he was alerted by the fact that00:14:23
out of the people who00:14:26
caught his eye, nine were men and00:14:30
that almost every woman was also mysterious.00:14:34
Judging by her appearance, she was either younger than 18 or00:14:38
older than thirty and those who are from 18 to rip,00:14:43
where did they go? That it was forbidden to00:14:46
appear in public or00:14:48
some kind of00:14:49
epidemic killed them, they could only hope that00:14:53
over time he would00:14:55
find out.00:15:04
emigration, he was received00:15:07
immediately in an honest office, there was00:15:10
chaos on the chenille wallpaper,00:15:13
suspicious stains, a00:15:16
powerful rifle with a silencer and an00:15:19
optical sight immediately caught the eye. An ominous decoration of the00:15:22
wall to wonder what this00:15:24
means, the goodman did not have time, because00:15:27
at his appearance, a corpulent,00:15:30
cheerful man of about fifty jumped out of his chair and00:15:32
energetically shook his hand on the00:15:35
minister's chest there was a Medallion with a relief of00:15:38
Tranai Sky coat of arms of lightning crushing a00:15:41
corncob Goodman assumed00:15:44
that this was the official seal of the Ministry00:15:47
and was not mistaken Welcome to Tranai00:15:50
with all his heart the00:15:53
minister threw a pile of papers off the table and00:15:56
motioned for Goodman to sit down00:15:59
Mr. Minister - Goodman spoke in a00:16:02
business tranai day milit My name is00:16:05
simpler son Call me bottom We have nothing to do with00:16:09
formalities here put your feet on00:16:11
the table and make yourself at home want a00:16:15
cigar No thanks - refused a little00:16:21
taken aback that is day I flew from the ground you00:16:25
may be heard this00:16:27
name Well, who hasn’t heard - grunted the00:16:30
nervous and vain little world No00:16:34
offense was said Yes, what offenses I have00:16:37
exactly the same opinion about my homeland And00:16:40
here is the reason why Goodman00:16:42
hesitated I hope that his explanations will not00:16:45
seem funny to me I have heard00:16:48
some rumors about the planet Tranai and,00:16:51
frankly speaking, they seemed00:16:54
exaggerated, I would like to know if,00:16:57
of course, you don’t mind00:17:01
if I generously allowed me to answer.00:17:04
Thank you in spirit, according to my information, Tranai has00:17:07
not known wars for 400 years, 60000:17:12
have corrected them and is not expected to00:17:15
speak of the throne There have not00:17:17
been any crimes committed yet, and00:17:20
therefore you do not have law enforcement agencies,00:17:23
all sorts of judges, Sheriffs, bailiffs, executioners of00:17:29
state investigators, there are no prisons,00:17:32
correctional homes and other places of00:17:35
detention, there is simply no00:17:37
need for them, shrugged his shoulders, Milit00:17:40
also I heard continued Goodman that Tranai does00:17:45
not know00:17:46
poverty poverty - Milit chuckled,00:17:50
what else would you have taken00:17:53
a cigar? Thank you, I don’t want to, excited to00:17:56
the extreme, Hood gave in to VD. Is it true that00:17:59
you managed to create a stable economy00:18:01
without resorting to socialist00:18:03
communist fascist or00:18:06
bureaucratic methods - this is true -00:18:09
Milit confirmed in fact you have a00:18:12
free enterprise system with an00:18:14
emphasis on personal initiative and the functions of00:18:17
government are reduced to the00:18:20
bare minimum Milit00:18:23
nodded in essence we solve small00:18:26
problems of regulation00:18:29
x we beautify the00:18:31
landscapes Tell me Goodman asked the most00:18:34
important question Have you really learned how to00:18:37
distribute wealth without00:18:40
government intervention even without00:18:42
taxation Is your method really00:18:45
based only on the personal choice of each00:18:48
individual, everything is exactly like this,00:18:52
so Captain SEVI told the truth, the00:18:55
young man exclaimed no longer VH00:18:58
Delight, this is really Utopia00:19:03
suits us - Milit modestly confirmed,00:19:06
taking a breath, Goodman asked, Can I00:19:11
stay? Why not Milit took it out of00:19:14
the box? form here there are no migration00:19:17
restrictions what you did before you00:19:20
can find out I mean, what did I do on00:19:23
earth robots designed on Tranai00:19:26
you will have a lot of opportunities to use your00:19:29
professional skills milit already00:19:32
wrote something in the form a drop of ink fell off a drop of00:19:35
ink appeared The minister habitually00:19:38
started the car with a pen wall and it00:19:40
shattered into smithereens And a00:19:43
new blue spot formed on both of them, we’ll fill out the00:19:46
documents sometime next time -00:19:49
the official said now I’m not in00:19:52
the mood for something, he leaned back in his chair, son00:19:55
Let me give you a good parting word, I00:19:58
called Tranai a utopia and we are its inhabitants we00:20:01
almost don’t see the difference here But I wouldn’t00:20:04
say that we have a highly organized00:20:07
state with complex legislation; we00:20:10
needlessly just follow a number of00:20:13
unwritten rules; they can even be called00:20:16
customs; soon you will get to know them;00:20:19
citizens will always help you with advice, but00:20:22
of course they won’t force you to00:20:24
do anything. Of course I I will listen to advice -00:20:28
exclaimed gu, believe me, sir,00:20:31
I do not intend to disturb the order in your paradise in any way.00:20:34
Yes, I’m not worried about our order,00:20:37
the milit explained with a grin, but00:20:41
for your safety, however, I’ll call my00:20:44
wife, let her explain it to you in more detail,00:20:46
he pushed the big00:20:49
red button into the table. an hour a00:20:51
bluish haze appeared, it thickened and after00:20:55
a few seconds Goodman saw a00:20:57
beautiful young00:20:59
woman in front of him. Good morning dear -00:21:02
she said to Lita already a day - the minister corrected her,00:21:06
dear, this young man came all the way from the00:21:09
Earth itself to settle on Tranai, I00:21:13
gave him the usual briefing00:21:15
that Is there anything else we can do for him00:21:18
after some thought, Mrs. Milit00:21:21
asked00:21:22
Goodman, are you married, no, ma’am, if so, we need to00:21:27
find him a girl.00:21:29
Mrs. Milit told her husband that a single life is00:21:32
welcome. Although, of course, it’s not00:21:35
forbidden, let me think about the00:21:38
charming little Driegan she's00:21:42
engaged - Milit said it's true, I00:21:45
spent a long time in stasis, dear,00:21:48
it's not prudent of you. Things00:21:51
were up to his neck, Lit and Mins are not his00:21:56
type of women, just right Milit00:21:59
winked at Goodman, a very00:22:03
pretty chick, having found a new pen in the table,00:22:06
he wrote the address and handed the piece of paper to the00:22:09
visitor, his wife will contact her and00:22:11
warn her to wait for you this00:22:14
evening, there will be time. Come and have dinner with us00:22:17
- Mrs. Milit added with00:22:20
pleasure, in complete confusion,00:22:22
Goodman answered. It was nice to00:22:25
meet you - said the woman, her husband00:22:28
again Pressed the button, Mrs. Milit00:22:31
has melted into the blue fog, it’s time00:22:34
to close - he looked at his watch, it’s nice to stay late00:22:37
at work, there won’t be any00:22:39
gossip in the next few days, we’ll fill out the paperwork, I00:22:44
also recommend calling the00:22:46
Supreme President Borg at the National Palace. Or00:22:49
maybe he himself will call you, be on the lookout,00:22:52
or the old Fox will quickly find00:22:54
a use for you and don’t forget about Zhanna mischievously00:22:58
passing He escorted Goodman to the door. A00:23:02
few seconds later the young man00:23:04
found himself on the sidewalk, all00:23:07
alone, I still found myself in a utopia -00:23:10
he told himself in a real real00:23:13
genuine utopia, but still something00:23:17
confused his mind, he had dinner at a00:23:20
restaurant and settled in the nearest00:23:23
hotel Vesyoly Belboy took the guest to the room00:23:26
and00:23:27
there he stretched out on the bed tiredly00:23:30
rubbing his eyes, tried to sort out his00:23:34
thoughts, how many impressions in one day,00:23:37
how many mysteries, for example, the ratio of the00:23:41
male and female population, he00:23:44
was going to ask Milit about this, but00:23:46
Milit may not be the right person to00:23:48
address such questions,00:23:52
he leads behaves quite strangely, for example,00:23:54
he throws writing00:23:57
materials at himself, this is what a00:23:59
mature, responsible official would allow, and00:24:03
how the mayor treats his wife Goodman00:24:06
guessed that Mrs. Melit came out of the00:24:08
static desin field, his characteristic00:24:12
blue haze cannot be confused with anything on00:24:15
Earth, dersin is also used in00:24:17
medicine, it happens useful stops00:24:20
all activity of the body growth00:24:23
decay and so on for example The patient00:24:26
desperately needs a serum which only00:24:29
on Mars the easiest way is to keep him in00:24:31
stasis until00:24:33
the medicine arrives but on earth00:24:36
only doctors are allowed to use der Sin and then, under a00:24:39
special license, serious consequences await violators00:24:41
punishment is it ever heard of00:24:44
keeping a wife in such a field? Perhaps this00:24:48
explains the absence of00:24:50
women aged 18 to 35 years on the streets, as00:24:55
well as the sex ratio of 10: o But what is00:24:59
the question? The meaning of this00:25:01
high-tech00:25:03
sulfur is another mystery that haunted00:25:06
Goodman, perhaps completely trivial and00:25:10
maybe there isn’t a gun on the wall of the militia,00:25:13
he’s an avid hunter, but what size00:25:17
should the game be for it to00:25:19
require such a huge caliber or an00:25:23
amateur target shooter, but not with an00:25:25
optical sight and certainly not with a00:25:28
silencer And what’s the point of keeping a weapon00:25:31
in the office but “all these are little things,”00:25:34
Goodman decided, something like an allergic00:25:37
reaction to the peculiarities of local life. He had00:25:41
just landed on an alien planet, it00:25:43
would be naive to count on an00:25:45
instant understanding of its way of life; he’ll00:25:48
live on Tranai longer and figure it00:25:52
all out. Goodman was already dozing off. When there00:25:55
was a knock on the door, come in, he said he00:25:58
slipped into Yurka’s room, a short man with a sallow00:26:00
face and hastily closed the door behind him.00:26:03
If I understood correctly, you were from the ground00:26:06
Yes, you understood correctly, and I knew that you were00:26:10
staying in this hotel - the00:26:13
short man broke into a smile; it’s good that he immediately found us for a00:26:16
long time, I think I’ll stay at absolutely00:26:20
excellent - the short man exclaimed, how00:26:23
about taking the post of Supreme00:26:26
President, what a decent salary,00:26:30
easy work, a contract for a year - the short man cheerfully00:26:32
listed, you give the00:26:35
impression of a person who is not indifferent to00:26:37
the problems of society Well, do you agree?00:26:40
Goodman didn’t believe his own ears, are you00:26:44
serious - he asked carefully00:26:48
blithely offer me the Highest00:26:51
State Post What does it mean blithely00:26:54
- excitedly the jam was touted by the guest in00:26:56
your minds here to whomever we happen to be given00:26:59
the position of the Supreme President Let00:27:01
you know this is a high honor Sorry,00:27:04
I didn’t mean to You’re just an earthling that00:27:08
suits us perfectly, that’s another Why is it so, it’s00:27:11
well known that Earthlings love to rule00:27:15
What can’t you say about us tranai sah,00:27:17
this is too troublesome business, it must be how00:27:21
simply the reformer’s blood boiled in Goodman’s veins00:27:24
No matter how good tranai00:27:27
his00:27:29
ears were, the young man vividly imagined himself as the00:27:32
ruler of a utopia solving a grandiose00:27:35
task How to make the almost ideal00:27:38
completely ideal but caution00:27:41
prevailed and he did not allow the exclamation to escape his tongue.00:27:44
I agree. Where is the guarantee that this00:27:47
visitor is not crazy? Thank you for00:27:50
the offer - said Goodman Nona00:27:53
needs to think about it, she should00:27:56
talk to Lok00:27:59
and get acquainted with the job00:28:01
responsibilities. And I’m here. Why do00:28:03
you think I leaked it? shorty I am the00:28:07
Supreme President Borg only now00:28:10
Goodman noticed the official seal on the interlocutor’s neck00:28:13
when you make a decision00:28:17
Let me know I will be at the National Palace00:28:20
and shaking Goodman’s hand the President00:28:23
left after waiting a few minutes young00:28:26
lo00:28:29
who was it the bar the Supreme President00:28:33
answered Belboy you agreed00:28:35
Goodman shook his head negatively with his head he00:28:38
suddenly realized that Tranai was far from simple, there was00:28:41
still a lot to be learned about it in the morning00:28:45
Goodman obtained an alphabetical list of factories00:28:48
for the production of robots in the port of Tranai and00:28:51
went to get a suitable job.00:29:07
and literally radiated powerful00:29:10
cheerful energy, I’m glad that an00:29:13
earthling appeared in our team - said00:29:16
Mr. Abacus. As I understand, you are not an00:29:18
ordinary person. And we need such people. I’ll00:29:21
be honest with you. Good. I hope00:29:24
your fresh ideas will bring us profit.00:29:27
How to get out of the deadlock. What’s the problem -00:29:30
asked the young man, “I’ll show you the00:29:33
abacus,” he took Goodman through the00:29:37
stamping workshops, X-ray structural00:29:40
analysis of the final assembly and00:29:43
testing. This last room00:29:45
was furnished like a living room00:29:48
combined with a kitchen along the wall. There were00:29:50
at least a dozen robots lined up along the wall.00:29:53
Try anyone, he suggested the OCD hem00:29:59
and looked at its control panel. it00:30:01
turned out to be quite simple, requiring no00:30:05
explanation, the young man subjected the00:30:07
machine to the standard procedure, ordering him to00:30:10
carry things from place to place, wash00:30:12
pots and pans, set the table,00:30:15
the orders were carried out quite clearly, but00:30:17
very slowly on earth, a long time ago00:30:20
they trained the mechanical servants quickly, obviously00:30:23
trana technology is pretty outdated00:30:28
they you are00:30:31
unhurried, you are right - the abacus nodded, they are00:30:34
damn slow For me, it’s just right,00:30:37
but the sales research department came to the00:30:40
conclusion that customers need even more00:30:43
sluggish robots, in fact, it’s true. Funny -00:30:47
Gloomily asked the tank about their00:30:58
tangle of wires, he didn’t immediately manage to00:31:00
figure out what why initially the robot00:31:03
was a modern design, even by00:31:05
earthly standards, and had00:31:08
inexpensive high-speed circuits, but00:31:10
it was additionally equipped with00:31:12
relay-slowing noise generators and00:31:15
reduction gears. So tell me - she00:31:19
angrily demanded a tank. How can you00:31:21
make a robot even less efficient00:31:23
if you don’t triple its size? and00:31:26
double the cost of manufacturing and what00:31:29
other improvements, if I may say so, will be00:31:31
required of me00:31:33
next time. Listening to him, Goodman tried00:31:37
to digest the wild concept of00:31:41
primitivism, factories have always strived to00:31:44
build more and more nimble,00:31:47
intelligent, more precise robots that execute commands, and00:31:50
he never had any doubts about the00:31:53
correctness of this path and As if00:31:56
we didn’t have enough troubles, the abacus continued to lament the00:31:59
new plastic created specifically00:32:01
for this model, or catalyze00:32:04
for some other reason, look, and he00:32:08
gave the robot a strong foam in the middle of the00:32:11
body;00:32:21
from the third kick,00:32:24
the body split, the insides exploded spectacularly,00:32:27
debris littered the floor, the00:32:31
strength is not so great, - said Goodman. Yes, it’s00:32:34
not so great, but from the first splash, the00:32:45
plastic that holds normal loads must have scattered.00:32:48
We don’t want00:32:50
the product to fall apart on its own at any moment00:32:52
and break easily Goodman protested to the consumer's wishes for00:32:55
a moment. Let00:32:58
me clarify something, you deliberately00:33:01
slow down your equipment so that it00:33:03
irritates customers and makes you00:33:06
want to break yourself. Abacus raised his head.00:33:10
Well, of course, why are you new here?00:33:15
Abacus smiled condescendingly and00:33:17
you don’t know what any child knows.00:33:20
I’m talking about fundamental concept, is00:33:23
it possible to go into more detail? Abacus sighed,00:33:28
well Surely you are aware that any00:33:31
mechanical device turns into a00:33:33
source of irritation, humanity has a00:33:36
long-standing and persistent hostility to machines,00:33:39
psychologists call this an instinctive00:33:42
reaction of life to pseudo life, have time to00:33:45
follow the thread of my reasoning that00:33:49
hour Marvy Goodman remembered the novels I read00:33:51
warnings about uprisings of machines00:33:54
about the reign of cybernetic brains over the00:33:57
world about Android invasions and the00:33:59
like, the heroes of funny00:34:02
newspaper articles came to mind; someone shot up his00:34:04
TV; another smashed a toaster against the wall;00:34:13
- said00:34:17
Goodman, nevertheless, Let me repeat the00:34:20
original postulate in the tone of a pedant, the tank00:34:22
continued, any machine is a source of00:34:26
irritation and the burning is stronger, the00:34:29
better the mechanism functions, it follows from this00:34:32
that a perfectly working machine00:34:35
is the focal point of frustration,00:34:38
here you have a drop in self-esteem and00:34:40
uncontrollable rejection, wait -00:34:43
interrupted Goodman like this to go far I don’t00:34:46
want to have schizophrenic fantasies - the00:34:49
tank continued adamantly; on the other00:34:52
hand, a developed economy cannot do00:34:55
without machines, hence the most beneficial00:34:58
solution for a person, any mechanism00:35:01
must have00:35:03
flaws, I don’t understand what this00:35:06
conclusion is based on, it’s very simple, here on earth00:35:10
the technology functions practically00:35:12
optimally instilling in users a sense of their00:35:14
own inferiority Unfortunately, a00:35:17
masochist tribal Taboos Forbid you from00:35:20
destroying mechanisms And what, in the end, is the00:35:23
deepest dissatisfaction with the Sacred and00:35:26
inviolable00:35:28
and the search for an object for the udder of aggression,00:35:31
which usually becomes a wife or friend, a00:35:34
sad situation, agree from the point00:35:37
of view of the productivity of robots, a00:35:39
complete benefit, but from the point of view in terms of00:35:42
human health and longevity, it’s extremely00:35:46
ineffective I’m not sure that a person is a00:35:49
nervous animal here on the throne We00:35:52
channel nervousness into the robotic channel00:35:55
and this allows you to cope with all00:35:58
types of mental disorders you are00:36:01
brought to white knees bam and the Spirit from the00:36:04
robot is out instant release excellent00:36:07
therapeutic effect Invaluable a feeling of00:36:10
superiority over a pitiful machine; a00:36:12
release of excess tension; a release of00:36:15
healing adrenaline into the blood; and also an00:36:18
incentive for the Tranai industry; after all,00:36:20
you will go to the store and buy a00:36:23
new robot; the wife is not full; not00:36:26
completely murder; war has not been declared;00:36:29
new weapons have not been invented;00:36:31
other usual outlets of aggression have not been used;00:36:34
only an inexpensive00:36:37
robot is broken, for which a replacement will immediately be found,00:36:40
somehow I can’t get my head around it,00:36:44
Marvin sighed, nothing can fit Goodman,00:36:47
I’m sure that in you we will get a00:36:50
valuable employee. Think about what you00:36:52
heard and try to find an00:36:54
inexpensive way to make it worse. This is what00:36:59
Goodman was racking his brain for the rest of the working day.00:37:02
over the task assigned to him, but he never00:37:05
managed to cope with the mind00:37:12
rejects Greatly looked like00:37:15
sacrilege in 530 he left the factory00:37:18
dissatisfied with himself but fully determined00:37:21
to do the job as best as possible What does it00:37:23
mean As00:37:26
bad as possible quickly having dinner alone00:37:29
the goodman decided to call Zhanna in Leigh did not00:37:32
want to while away the evening in for the company of only his00:37:34
own thoughts in this arch-complicated00:37:37
utopia, he was completely at a loss; he urgently00:37:40
needed to do something simple00:37:42
and pleasant; a date with Zhanna was probably just00:37:54
what he needed; look like00:37:56
Utopia and problems have their roots here,00:38:00
it’s not an easy task to adapt thinking00:38:02
to the real situation, he expected to see a00:38:05
pastoral setting,00:38:08
exotic villages of the wise scattered around the planet,00:38:10
tactful and sympathetic villagers in flowing00:38:12
white clothes, children00:38:15
playing in the golden sun, young people00:38:18
dancing on the00:38:19
playgrounds, of course, all this is complete00:38:22
nonsense Marvin didn’t imagine00:38:25
scenery instead of a scene x postcards instead of an00:38:29
ever-changing reality00:38:32
people don’t live as he imagined00:38:34
even If they want to they can’t And if00:38:37
they can they won’t be00:38:40
people around the house pour in Marvin stood00:38:44
undecided what he should00:38:46
get involved in now what they will lead him to strangers00:38:49
Let the undoubtedly utopian customs Goode already00:38:53
wanted to go back, even turned around, but00:38:56
singing a long lonely night in the hotel00:39:00
suddenly seemed completely00:39:01
untempting, clenching his jaws to the point of creaking, he00:39:05
rang the doorbell, it was opened by a red-haired00:39:08
middle-aged and average-height man Yeah,00:39:12
you must be that guy from the earth Zhanna00:39:15
now it will be ready, come in00:39:17
and meet my wife. He led00:39:20
Goodman into the elegantly furnished00:39:22
living room and stuck a red button into the wall.00:39:26
This time, the appearance of a bluish haze00:39:29
der Sin fields is how Tranai treat00:39:32
their women, this is their business - he said to00:39:35
himself, a beautiful woman of about twenty appeared in the haze00:39:39
Dear -00:39:42
Mr. Vlei told her this is an earthling Mr.00:39:46
Goodman are glad to have such a guest - said00:39:49
Mrs. Vlei Would you like something00:39:51
to drink Goodman nodded Mrs. Vlei pointed00:39:55
to a comfortable chair and soon00:39:57
brought it under her nose with a chilled drink00:40:00
after which she also sat down So you are of the00:40:03
earth - said Mr. Vley They say00:40:06
it’s a real anthill, the people there are twitchy and are00:40:10
constantly in a hurry somewhere, or perhaps everything is not so,00:40:14
perhaps so - answered the Goodman, well, I’m00:40:17
sure you’ll like it here, we know how to00:40:20
live, you can’t take that away from us, all the business00:40:23
on the stairs rustled skirts and Goodman stood00:40:26
up, Mr. Goodman is our daughter00:40:30
Zhanna Introduced by the newly arrived Mrs.00:40:33
Vley, the guest immediately noted that Zhanna’s hair color is00:40:36
exactly like that of a supernova in the00:40:38
CRC, incredible bottomless Blue eyes00:40:42
resemble the autumn sky of the planet Olga 200:40:45
lips are also delightfully pink like the00:40:47
exhaust of a rocket engine Scar00:40:50
Turner slot And the nose, however the stock of00:40:52
astronomical comparisons immediately dried up00:40:54
and they were hardly appropriate - she turned out to be a00:40:57
slender and extremely pretty00:41:00
blonde, and Goodman immediately caught himself00:41:02
thinking that crossing the Galaxy was00:41:04
definitely worth it, go children and00:41:08
have a good time - Madam Vley admonished them.00:41:11
Come back not too00:41:13
late - the gentleman ordered Jeanne pour in the00:41:17
same exact words the parents say on earth00:41:20
in this date there was no exoticism00:41:24
they visited an inexpensive nightclub00:41:26
they danced a little they drank and talked they talked they00:41:30
spoke goodman marveled at00:41:34
how quickly they found a common language with any00:41:37
expressed thought Zhanna instantly00:41:39
agreed there are such things in the world00:41:42
smart girls made a huge impression on her on the00:41:45
road00:41:47
Adventures of Marvin Earthlings As everyone00:41:49
knows for the taken adventurers, although not00:41:52
in the plant, the danger that00:41:55
Goodman was exposed to on the way to the throne A00:41:57
truly breathtaking00:42:00
sorog girl when he talked about the00:42:02
deadly galactic vortex with00:42:04
eyes round in fear, she listened to00:42:06
the flight from the famous gauntlet about00:42:09
flying past the bloodthirsty scabies00:42:12
mites that still prowl the Starry00:42:15
galaxy and swarm in hellish holes pron from00:42:19
the words of Marvin Zhanna realized that the Earthlings were00:42:22
iron men in steel ships,00:42:24
fearless explorers of the Okra of the Great00:42:28
nothingness, she listened in reverent00:42:31
silence until Goodman told about00:42:33
how on asteroid 342 Aa in the hotel the00:42:37
red rooster supposedly paid Gan for a glass of00:42:40
beer 500 Earth dollars. Probably it00:42:44
was a terrible Thirst -00:42:47
she said thoughtfully. Yes, I wouldn’t say that it was00:42:50
terrible. Goodman answered; it’s just that money does00:42:53
n’t mean much there, that’s how it was, but wasn’t it00:42:56
their mind? save someday You may be00:43:00
surrounded by children She blushed What would it be like pouring00:43:04
overgrowth00:43:07
Goodman said coldly I intend to sit down and00:43:10
marry tranai here How great -00:43:13
the girl exclaimed The evening was a00:43:16
success Goodman delivered Zhanna home not00:43:19
too late and agreed on a00:43:21
date tomorrow,00:43:24
he became bolder the girl didn’t resist her on the cheek at all,00:43:28
but Marvin didn’t try to build on his00:43:30
success until tomorrow, she smiled and shut00:43:34
the door, he walked away, his head was spinning with00:43:38
happiness Zhanna Zhanna Has he already00:43:42
fallen in love, and why not, love at00:43:45
first sight is a thoroughly studied00:43:48
phenomenon from the field of psychophysiology and she00:43:51
not at all reprehensible00:43:58
and on the planet he looked at his ideal00:44:01
girlfriend, a man stepped out of the shadows and00:44:05
blocked the road Goodman saw a black00:44:08
silk mask with the00:44:11
lid open, held in his hand a heavy, powerful-00:44:13
looking blaster, pointing it straight at00:44:16
Marvy’s stomach, and come on, friend grumbled.00:44:20
The stranger, take it out, Degi00:44:27
heard, drive the wallet, but it’s also impossible -00:44:31
Marvin flew by, too confused00:44:34
to think sensibly on Tranai there00:44:38
are no crimes. What does00:44:41
crime have to do with it? The00:44:44
masked man calmly inquired. I’ll just take your00:44:47
money and if you don’t give it back in an amicable way,00:44:50
blame yourself, but you won’t00:44:53
get away with it in our time it is unprofitable to break the00:44:56
law not miles of nonsense The masked man00:45:00
waved his00:45:01
blaster menacingly Okay okay no need to be nervous00:45:05
Goodman took out a wallet in which00:45:07
all his property fit and gave00:45:09
the contents to the robber, he counted it and was00:45:13
clearly00:45:14
more happy than I expected00:45:17
Thank you buddy goodbye and don’t hold a grudge and00:45:22
He hurriedly walked away along00:45:25
Goodman Street, looking for a00:45:27
policeman. But he soon came to his senses, no,00:45:30
on the street, law enforcement00:45:33
noticed a small cocktail bar on the corner with a00:45:35
neon sign, Kitten Kat, and rushed00:45:38
inside. Lonely gloomy Barma00:45:42
was wiping glasses. I was robbed -00:45:45
Goodman shouted. Yes, really? the bartender00:45:48
didn’t even look in his direction. And I thought there were00:45:51
no00:45:52
crimes on the throne, right, there’s no such thing as they were00:45:57
robbed. You must not be from here - the00:46:00
bartender finally gave him a glance.00:46:27
crime What does it mean not a crime00:46:30
robbery everywhere Outside the law What color00:46:34
mask was the raiders wearing after thinking for a second00:46:37
Goodman answered black black silk the bartender00:46:42
nodded, that means this is tax collection00:46:47
tax collection - Goodman gasped they00:46:50
couldn’t think of a more idiotic way the bartender00:46:53
put in front of him a glass of special00:46:55
Tranai from the point of00:46:57
Inter to society, this doesn’t00:47:00
look like idiocy, whatever one may say, the government00:47:03
needs money, this method of collecting it00:47:06
allows you to do without tax00:47:08
inspectors, without a cumbersome legal and00:47:11
fiscal apparatus. And there is00:47:14
much less harm to the psyche. If the money is collected00:47:16
through a short, quick, painless00:47:19
operation, the citizen does not spend the whole year00:47:22
waiting for a certain date. payment dimm00:47:26
at the reaping glass and the barman made a new00:47:29
portion I thought your society was based00:47:32
on such concepts as Free will and00:47:35
individual initiative, everything is correct - the00:47:38
barman nodded But doesn’t it follow from this00:47:41
that the government, no matter how00:47:43
small it is, has exactly the00:47:46
same the right to free will, like an ordinary00:47:50
citizen, what he heard did not fit well00:47:53
in Goodman’s head, so he quickly00:47:55
finished the second glass. I can still cry00:47:58
at the first opportunity, of course, of course, - the00:48:02
bartender answered good-naturedly and filled two00:48:05
glasses for the visitor and for himself. Why00:48:08
did you ask? What color was the mask on?00:48:10
that person, the color black among civil servants00:48:14
was answered by the barman, ordinary citizens put on00:48:17
white masks. And how do we understand this?00:48:20
ordinary citizens also have the right to00:48:22
rob. It is absolutely true that such a unity of00:48:27
wealth, the balance of the money supply00:48:30
is maintained without the intervention of00:48:32
financial structures, even without the participation of00:48:35
tax authorities, solely00:48:37
thanks to the personal initiative of citizens00:48:40
having become attached. the bartender added and the result00:48:43
is excellent robbery, I’ll tell you The Great00:48:46
Leveler Probably you’re right -00:48:49
Goodman admitted, having finished his third drink. If I00:48:53
understand correctly, any citizen can00:48:56
fill a mask with a blaster and start00:48:59
robbing Well, yes - the bartender confirmed,00:49:03
of course, without going beyond certain limits00:49:06
Goodman snorted that these are the School Rules00:49:10
I’m ready to play a mask for them. Can I borrow a00:49:13
cannon? The bartender bent down and rummaged under00:49:17
the bar. Just don’t forget to return the00:49:20
family heirlooms, you know. I’ll definitely00:49:23
return it.00:49:32
But I’ll pay. He put the blaster behind his trouser belt, pulled on the mask and left the bar. Well, if such orders are on the throne,00:49:35
Marvin Goodman perfectly adapt to them00:49:37
he was robbed Soon he00:49:40
will return the Lost Yes, with interest, having found a00:49:43
suitable dark corner, he hid,00:49:46
soon hurried steps were heard and00:49:48
Marvin, carefully leaning out of the shelter,00:49:51
saw a plump, not poorly dressed tranai drinking00:49:57
friend tna stopped and00:50:00
looked at the blaster in00:50:02
Marvin’s hand if I’m not mistaken You have a Drog 300:50:06
with a large aperture, an old-fashioned thing. Are00:50:09
you happy? I’m not complaining; Goodman answered.00:50:14
Well, get the trigger;00:50:16
it works. With a delay, the00:50:19
throne continued thoughtfully. I would recommend the00:50:21
needle case of Mils and Slin. By the way,00:50:24
in front of you is a sales representative fi00:50:26
weapon Slin; I promise the price will suit you.00:50:30
Drive the money - barked Goodman full Trots00:50:34
smiled at the drogue 3 there is a significant00:50:37
drawback, it will not fire if the00:50:40
safety is on, the arms dealer00:50:42
approached with lightning speed and knocked the blaster00:50:45
out of Goodman’s hands. You see, and00:50:48
nothing can be done about it. Marvin picked up the00:50:51
blaster, found the safety, moved it00:50:54
and hurried after him, having managed to move away. Money00:50:57
drive away Goodman commanded, not00:51:00
as decisively as the first time no no00:51:03
Dear, without even looking back, answered00:51:06
tranai one attempt per passerby00:51:09
unwritten laws must be observed Goodman00:51:13
stood and looked after the stranger until he00:51:16
disappeared around the corner then carefully00:51:18
examined the road 3 made sure that all00:51:20
the fuses were removed and returned to his00:51:23
previous position after selling for half an hour. He00:51:27
heard footsteps again and tightened his grip on the handle of the00:51:30
blaster. This time the robbery will be00:51:33
completed and nothing will stop Marvin00:51:36
Goodman. Hey buddy, he said. Hands00:51:40
up in front of him. A short,00:51:43
stocky tranai stood in an old overalls and00:51:45
looked at the blaster with round eyes. out of horror00:51:48
with your eyes, please don’t shoot -00:51:52
he begged like this, it’s better Good00:51:55
felt a ray of00:51:57
satisfaction, stand still, he ordered all00:52:00
the fuses were removed, I see Mr.00:52:08
servile with a gun, And I don’t even lift a finger00:52:13
and Give me00:52:16
money, money, yes,00:52:17
money and00:52:21
wait, Mr. I have no money, hall I’m00:52:25
a passer-by, I’m a poor person all my life in00:52:28
poverty on the throne and there is no poverty - said00:52:32
Goodman I know, but you can get so close to it00:52:37
that no difference is00:52:40
visible anymore have mercy, sir. Why are you00:52:44
lacking initiative - asked Goodman if you’re00:52:47
poor Why don’t you go out onto the high00:52:49
road and not will rob someone Yes,00:52:52
I just didn’t have such an opportunity,00:52:55
then my daughter was sick as hell and I didn’t leave00:52:58
her crib then der Sin’s generator00:53:01
broke down and my wife sawed me every00:53:04
day in every house there should be a00:53:06
spare der Sin, agree Mr.00:53:10
While ours was being repaired she started00:53:13
cleaning the house and put my00:53:15
blaster somewhere. And where did I forget? I was already planning to00:53:18
borrow a gun from a friend, but that’s00:53:21
enough - interrupted Goodman. This is a robbery, I00:53:24
have to take something from you.00:53:26
Take out your wallet, the little man sobbed00:53:29
and gave Marvin the old wallet in it.00:53:32
Robber found one deagle00:53:34
equivalent to an earthly dollar I do00:53:37
n’t have any more - zany shorty but so be it00:53:41
I know how sickening it is to stomp around in the wind all night00:53:56
upset he returned to the kitten Kat and00:53:59
returned the blaster with a mask after hearing the story00:54:02
about his adventures the bartender laughed in the most00:54:05
indecent way about the money he00:54:08
wasn’t with him, buddy, it’s an old00:54:11
hackneyed trick, everyone carries an empty00:54:14
wallet, or even two, even three, especially00:54:18
for robbers. Did you at least search the guy, no00:54:22
- Goodman admitted, brother, you’re just00:54:25
a sucker. Looks like I00:54:29
’ll really pay for the drink as soon as00:54:33
you get it, you’ll pay Barma waved him off. And00:54:36
now you’d better go home and sleep. It was a00:54:40
troublesome day. Goodman didn’t00:54:43
argue and trudged to the hotel. There,00:54:46
exhausted, he collapsed on his bed and instantly00:54:50
fell asleep. He showed up at the00:54:52
Abaga household robots factory and boldly took on the task00:54:56
of atom, even at such an unnatural00:54:59
job, he made himself known. the notorious earthly00:55:02
ingenuity Goodman began to00:55:05
create a new plastic for the00:55:07
robot's body; it turned out to be silicone, a relative of00:55:10
silicone plastics produced on earth a long time ago;00:55:13
it had the00:55:15
desired parameters of strength,00:55:17
elasticity and00:55:19
wear resistance; the robot could withstand00:55:21
a lot of beatings. But if the impact force00:55:24
exceeded 30 pounds, the body would effectively00:55:27
shatter into smithereens the employer praised00:55:30
Goodman for his success, rewarded him with much-00:55:33
needed money and ordered him to continue00:55:36
working so that the robot could withstand blows no00:55:38
stronger than 23 pounds, according to the00:55:42
sales research department, this is the kick of00:55:45
the average irritated00:55:47
robot businessman Marvin with his head in the street in00:55:51
research, he did not have time00:55:53
to further study the morals of the TNA00:55:56
but BC, he managed to visit the00:55:59
civilian booth. This purely00:56:02
Tranai institution was located in a small00:56:05
building on the Quiet outskirts of the street. Upon entering, he00:56:09
found himself in front of a massive board with00:56:11
the names of all the current Tranai00:56:13
chiefs and the names of their00:56:16
positions, next to each name00:56:19
there was a button. Claire explained to Good that00:56:22
by pressing the button, a citizen expresses00:56:26
and does not approve of the official’s activities,00:56:29
all these reviews are automatically00:56:31
recorded and are forever stored in the archive,00:56:35
of course, minors are not00:56:37
allowed buttons, in Goodman’s opinion, the system00:56:40
was not effective. Although it could not be00:56:43
ruled out that the busy bureaucracy00:56:46
was guided by motives other than those00:56:48
on earth, almost every evening He00:56:51
spent in society Jeanne and VDM they00:56:55
explored the early culture of the city,00:56:58
attended dinner parties, cinemas,00:57:01
concert halls, exhibitions, works of00:57:03
art, science museum, as well as fairs and00:57:07
festivals. Goodman wound up with a blaster and,00:57:10
after several unsuccessful attempts,00:57:12
took almost 500 diglas from the merchant. Jeanne00:57:16
was delighted. Yes, any sane00:57:19
girl approved. If such a00:57:21
success of their gentleman, it was decided to00:57:24
celebrate him in the bar kitten Kat there,00:57:27
Zhanna's parents recognized him from Goodman.00:57:29
Apparently, he will turn out to be a good00:57:32
earner the next evening, Marvin00:57:35
lost these 500 deagle and part of the bonus,00:57:39
he was robbed by a man similar in height and00:57:41
build to the bartender from the kitten Kat and00:57:44
armed with an antediluvian blaster of the00:57:47
Drog 3 system, I had to console myself with the idea00:57:51
that money for the throne circulates freely,00:57:54
that’s how this world works, and then00:57:58
Luck came to Marvin again at the Abaga factory. He00:58:01
created a completely new process for00:58:03
making cases; he got00:58:06
plastic that can withstand serious blows and00:58:09
falls; the owner of the robot needs wear00:58:12
special shoes with a catalyst in heels;00:58:15
touching the plastic will give an00:58:17
instant and destructive effect.00:58:20
At first, Abacus hesitated whether it was too00:58:23
tricky. However, the new products sold out00:58:26
like hot cakes and with household00:58:29
robots it was necessary to open a shoe workshop. The00:58:34
owners of the shares were very happy about the appearance of related production, even more00:58:37
than about plastic in combined with a00:58:39
catalyst, in addition to the bonus, Goodman00:58:42
received a significant increase in salary00:58:45
on the crest of a wave of success, he00:58:48
proposed to Zhanna and instantly received00:58:51
consent. The parents blessed them. All that was left was a holiday from the Armed Forces. He00:58:58
was listed as an alien, taking00:59:02
time off from work. He went to Drik for an00:59:05
appointment with Lit. It was spring. The day turned out to be00:59:09
wonderful, however, on the throne for 10 months a00:59:12
year Magnificent weather with a light00:59:15
springy step Marvin walked down the street00:59:19
he is in love things are going uphill it was a00:59:22
mere trifle to get citizenship of a utopia00:59:26
Of course, some changes will not00:59:28
harm her even tranai is not quite ideal,00:59:32
perhaps Marvin will agree to take the post of00:59:34
Supreme President will carry out the00:59:36
necessary reforms, but you don’t have00:59:39
to rush with this Hey little brother, there won’t be an extra deagle00:59:43
Goodman looked down and saw an00:59:46
old man sitting on his haunches, dirty in00:59:49
rags, he held out a tin cup,00:59:53
what’s that - asked Goodman,00:59:56
Mr. Dai deagla repeated the beggar Steve in a01:00:00
voice to the poor man on the mug ogla I’m01:00:05
already 2 I haven’t eaten in a day, be ashamed Why don’t01:00:08
you take a blaster and rob someone01:00:11
Where did the old man want me? The beggar victims are01:00:15
just laughing at me Are you sure01:00:19
Hood sternly inquired that this is not01:00:22
banal laziness Yes Prim here le01:00:27
You just look at how my hands are shaking01:00:30
and he extended dirty hands, they really01:00:33
trembled Goodman took out his wallet and handed it to01:00:36
the old man deagla After all, I believed that there was01:00:39
no poverty in Tranai, I thought the01:00:42
state takes care of the elderly,01:00:45
the state cares, the beggar sighed.01:00:48
Look, he held out the cup01:00:53
on it, it was engraved with01:00:56
mi state license number dr01:01:00
4324 1 you want to say the01:01:04
state forces you to do this, it01:01:07
doesn’t force you, but allows you to do it, the01:01:10
old man explained01:01:12
begging, the same civil service is only01:01:14
for the old and wretched, well, it’s a disgrace. You01:01:19
must not be a local01:01:23
earthling,01:01:24
well, your brother is a fussy neurasthenic.01:01:29
But here the authorities never force you to01:01:31
beg, minted Goodman Yes, really, and with01:01:35
what? your old people are busy01:01:38
eating young people or they sit at home all day long and01:01:42
die of boredom here the young man is not01:01:45
honored in Tranai every old man01:01:48
is guaranteed a job that does not require01:01:52
professional knowledge and skills Although it is01:01:56
useful to have knowledge and skills, some people01:01:59
work indoors I’m talking about churches and01:02:02
theaters for others I like the festive01:02:05
atmosphere of fairs and carnivals. And my01:02:09
element is the street. I adore the sun and fresh01:02:13
air here, and hardening and simple01:02:16
physical exercises and meeting01:02:19
interesting people like you, but to01:02:23
beg. What else am I good for?01:02:26
How much? I know, but look at you, not01:02:30
washed, not shaved in dirty cast-offs These are01:02:34
my work clothes - explained01:02:36
the state Beggar, you should see me on the01:02:40
weekends, I have something to change into, or even a01:02:44
cozy apartment, I have a season01:02:47
ticket to the Opera and a couple of household01:02:50
robots and money in the bank, you probably01:02:53
have never seen so much in your life in general young01:02:56
man, it was nice chatting with you And01:02:59
thank you for your contribution to my well-being, but I01:03:02
have to go back to work, I advise you01:03:05
not to be idle Goodman went on, every now and then,01:03:09
looking around and the nine old man01:03:14
seems to be living on state self-sufficiency and the university is not01:03:16
blowing, but to beg for such a01:03:20
vicious the practice must be01:03:22
stopped if Goodman One day agrees to01:03:25
the presidency and he will probably agree. It01:03:28
will be necessary to understand01:03:31
everything properly, surely he will find a more worthy01:03:33
solution to the problem of01:03:35
the elderly. Having arrived in and Drik Goodman initiated01:03:39
Milit into his matrimonial01:03:41
plans, the Minister of Immigration01:03:44
perked up. Wonderful, simply wonderful01:03:47
- he exclaimed I have known the Vlei family for a long time,01:03:50
they are wonderful people, and with such a wife,01:03:54
how proud was Zhanna of my husband? Do I need to01:03:58
go through any procedures? Asked01:04:00
Goodman, I’m still an01:04:02
alien, let’s do without01:04:04
formalities, just verbally express the01:04:07
desire to become a citizen of Tranai.01:04:10
Is it possible to remain a citizen of the earth, and it’s possible to do01:04:13
both earthly and01:04:16
Transai citizenship, as long as your homeland doesn’t01:04:19
object. And we don’t mind at all,01:04:22
perhaps Paradise citizenship is enough for me,01:04:25
said Goodman, yes, whatever you say, but if01:04:28
he is thinking about the presidential post,01:04:31
I recommend maintaining the status of an earthling.01:04:34
This will not be an obstacle in our work;01:04:37
we look at such things with understanding one of01:04:39
our most successful supreme01:04:42
presidents was01:04:44
evolved Soy with watercolor 9 what a01:04:48
progressive approach Exactly Everyone01:04:51
should get a chance is our motto And01:04:55
now your marriage01:04:58
can be registered by any official Supreme01:05:01
President Borg will be simply happy01:05:03
to provide you with this service even today01:05:06
winked milit explained Oh, and the01:05:09
old eccentric loves to kiss brides. But01:05:12
he seems to have developed a sincere sympathy for you01:05:16
today - asked Goodman. Yes, I’m ready01:05:20
to get married today if Zhanna doesn’t mind,01:05:23
she’s unlikely to refuse, he assured him.01:05:26
Next question: Where are you going to01:05:29
stay after the honeymoon? You won’t have01:05:31
to live in a hotel room forever room,01:05:34
after thinking a little, he said I have01:05:37
a house on the outskirts, you can live there until01:05:40
you find something better, but if01:05:42
you don’t, stay for absolutely what are01:05:46
you - Goodman protested, this is too01:05:49
generous an offer, nonsense, you haven’t yet01:05:52
thought of replacing me at the post01:05:56
on business immigration work What is needed01:05:59
no office shortened day01:06:01
good pay no aimed at the01:06:05
supreme presidency I understand I don’t01:06:08
blame Milit rummaged in his pockets and01:06:11
took out two keys this one for the entrance from the street01:06:14
this one for the back door on both keys the01:06:17
address is engraved in the house there is everything01:06:19
you need including a brand new01:06:22
degenerator01:06:26
Of course, a home is not considered01:06:29
full-fledged if the NM does not have this typewriter,01:06:32
who cleared his01:06:51
throat in front of which this question seems to be01:06:55
nothing,01:06:56
but why does a person do this or that, it’s01:06:59
simply required by custom, and in this01:07:02
case, by the way, the custom is quite01:07:05
reasonable. Who wants his wife to01:07:07
walk around all day? and chattered incessantly01:07:11
Goodman blushed for him, every moment01:07:13
spent with Zhanna brought nothing01:07:16
but pleasure and he wanted her to01:07:18
be there always night and day But is01:07:23
this fair to the woman01:07:28
my friend burst out laughing Do you really believe in the equality of the01:07:32
sexes this is a doctrine that has long been debunked01:07:35
man and a woman is not the same thing, there is a01:07:39
huge difference between them, so as not to be01:07:41
taught to you on Earth, what is good for a man is01:07:45
not necessarily good for a woman,01:07:48
usually just the opposite and you01:07:50
treat them as beings of a01:07:53
lower order in the vein of01:07:56
reformist blood boiling Not at all We are everything01:07:59
We just treat them differently from01:08:02
men, no humiliation. Let you01:08:05
know, our ladies don’t mind at all.01:08:08
This is because they don’t know a better life,01:08:10
and that there is a law that requires keeping a wife01:08:13
in the desin field. Of course, there is no such law, there01:08:17
is only a custom that offers01:08:20
weekly a certain minimum amount.01:08:22
time to release her from stasis marriage01:08:26
is not imprisonment Well, yes, of course -01:08:30
Goodman grunted partly - this is a full01:08:33
life, that’s how Milit didn’t notice01:08:36
the sarcasm, you understood correctly Goodman got up,01:08:40
that’s all I guess, yes I wish you luck Thank you,01:08:45
Goodman muttered, after which he01:08:47
turned sharply and01:08:49
left in the same place the day Marvin Goodman01:08:53
married Jeanne Vlei, the01:08:55
simple ceremony took place in the01:08:58
National Palace and the01:09:01
Supreme President Borg, who presided over it, did not miss01:09:03
the opportunity to passionately kiss the bride;01:09:06
only one circumstance01:09:09
overshadowed the wedding; on the wall in01:09:12
Borg’s office there hung a gun with an optical sight01:09:15
and a silencer exactly the same as Milita01:09:19
Bor’s ex Goodman aside and asked01:09:22
if you thought about being01:09:26
president, but I haven’t decided yet -01:09:29
Goodman answered, no one really wants to go into01:09:31
politics, but Tranai is in01:09:35
dire need of reforms. Perhaps it’s01:09:38
my duty to draw the attention of citizens to01:09:41
pressing problems. That’s what I understand.01:09:44
enthusiasm - praised Borg It's been a while since01:09:47
we've had a truly01:09:49
enterprising Supreme President,01:09:52
why don't you take office right now,01:09:54
then you can spend your01:09:56
honeymoon at the National Palace in a01:09:59
cozy, private environment The temptation was01:10:03
great, but Goodman decided that he would do01:10:05
government affairs on his honeymoon01:10:08
this is too much because Utopia will01:10:11
remain for a few more weeks Not quite01:10:12
perfect and nothing will be done, I’ll01:10:16
come back and make a decision, promised Marvin01:10:20
Borg shrugged his shoulders, well, I’ll keep it for a while longer The burden of01:10:23
power is on my shoulders,01:10:25
look, he handed Goode a01:10:28
sealed envelope that this is just01:10:32
standard advice - said Borg And now,01:10:35
hurry up, the young wife Marvin is waiting for you, let's01:10:39
go, Zhanna called out because of you We will be01:10:42
late for the spaceship Goodman hurried after01:10:45
her to the limousine sent from the spaceport.01:10:48
Bon voyages shouted after the parents.01:10:51
Bon voyages exclaimed and01:10:56
wished the young couple a safe voyage. His wife and the01:10:59
rest of the guests on the way to the spaceport,01:11:02
Goodman opened the envelope and read the01:11:04
printed text, the newly-made advice to01:11:13
live in paradise until the end of one’s days, and this is01:11:16
absolutely correct, because a happy01:11:19
family is the foundation of a prosperous01:11:21
state, but here desire is not enough;01:11:24
family happiness does not come to a person01:11:27
for free; to achieve it, you need to01:11:31
work hard; remember, your wife is01:11:34
human being, she has an01:11:36
inalienable right to a Ton of Freedom;01:11:39
we recommend releasing her from stasis at01:11:42
least once a week; too long01:11:44
a stay in the village will have a bad effect not01:11:47
only on her orientation in the outside01:11:49
world, but also on her physical condition, and you01:11:53
won’t benefit from it on the weekend either01:11:56
holidays, you should release your wife from01:11:58
stasis for the whole day, or even two or01:12:01
even three, there will be no harm from this; on the01:12:04
contrary, fresh impressions will have the most01:12:07
beneficial effect on her01:12:10
psyche; keep in mind these01:12:13
rules dictated by common sense and a happy01:12:16
marriage is guaranteed to you by the State01:12:19
Council for Family Affairs Marvin leisurely01:12:23
tore the sheet of paper into small pieces,01:12:25
dropping them on the floor of the limousine,01:12:28
the spirit of the reformer awoke in him again. Goodman had long01:12:31
suspected that Tranai was not at all as good as it01:12:35
looked for perfection.01:12:37
Someone always has to pay in this01:12:40
case, women in Paradise discovered the first01:12:45
serious flaw of the road, what is it Looking01:12:49
Zhanna asked to the scraps the most stupid01:12:52
advice of all possible - answered Goodman01:12:55
Honey, have you ever thought01:12:57
seriously about the marriage customs of your planet,01:13:01
it’s unlikely What’s wrong with them Yes, it’s all01:13:04
wrong, they’re no good, women are not01:13:08
dolls to remove them from your eyes after playing enough01:13:10
down with you. Why don’t you understand that you01:13:12
can’t treat a person like that, it’s true that01:13:15
it never occurred to me.01:13:18
So maybe you should think about it -01:13:21
Good asked, after all, the time has come for change and01:13:24
they will start in our house. As you01:13:27
decide, dear, so it will be,01:13:30
Zhanna said earnestly and squeezed01:13:33
Marvin kissed her husband's hand. And soon the limousine01:13:36
entered the territory of the spaceport and the01:13:39
passengers boarded the liner. The01:13:41
honeymoon spent by the newlyweds at a preschool educational institution would be01:13:44
more correctly called a short01:13:46
visit to a paradise devoid of the slightest drawback. the01:14:00
heartthrob01:14:03
decided to hunt beauties there, he was turned away01:14:06
from the gate, tired of01:14:08
life, having lost illusions from the believing01:14:11
cynic, he was forced to look for joy in01:14:14
other places, he had to rule alone, but the01:14:17
iron law was only in love and to grow01:14:22
and how01:14:24
and This was the only Tranai01:14:26
custom that did not cause Goodman There was not the01:14:29
slightest emotional rejection on the01:14:32
tiny Moon;01:14:35
fragrant meadows with tall grass and01:14:38
green forests inviting for a walk and picturesque01:14:41
cliff ledges awaited the young couple; a dream to01:14:44
climb for the entire period of time to hide from prying01:14:47
eyes in the bosom of nature, and not at all01:14:50
afraid of getting lost; to walk01:14:52
around the Moon, a weak day was enough gravity01:14:56
negated the risk of drowning in the lake and01:14:59
when falling from a mountain a person01:15:02
would end up with minor bruises in the most01:15:06
convenient places there were mini-hotels with01:15:08
dimly lit bars where01:15:12
amiable fair-haired bartenders were busy; gloomy01:15:15
tunnels led deep into the not too01:15:17
deep satellite to caves with01:15:23
shining rivers where large01:15:25
fish with phosphorite scales and fiery01:15:29
eyes swam State Council for01:15:32
Family Affairs gap this modest set of01:15:34
attractions is quite sufficient and not01:15:36
fork out the01:15:50
end of spending magical days at the preschool01:15:53
Good The red half returned to01:15:57
Tranai carrying their betrothed over the threshold of their01:15:59
new home Marvin immediately pulled out the01:16:02
plug from the socket Sin generator01:16:06
dear - he said until now I have01:16:09
strictly followed the Tranai01:16:11
customs and traditions No matter how ridiculous01:16:14
they may seem,01:16:16
I will not put up with this prejudice on earth I have established a01:16:20
Committee to fight for equal01:16:21
professional opportunities for women01:16:24
yes, yes, men and women there we are equal in01:16:27
work and in all other aspects of life we are01:16:31
partners Companions comrades a very01:16:35
strange concept a01:16:38
shadow came over Zhanna’s charming face Yes, think about it01:16:41
carefully Goodman began to convince her01:16:44
we will take from life equally and she will01:16:47
give us much more joy than01:16:49
if I I kept you in the desin field like a01:16:52
doll in a box, agree that you are right.01:16:56
Dear, you are so smart and experienced, you01:16:59
crossed the Galaxy from End to End, and01:17:01
my whole life went to the port of Tranai. As01:17:05
you decide, we will do so. Goodman came to the01:17:07
firm conviction that he got the01:17:09
most perfect woman in01:17:13
the Universe, he returned to the01:17:16
Abaga household robots factory and went headlong into another01:17:19
project to deteriorate products,01:17:22
he soon had the brilliant idea of making the01:17:25
robot’s joints squeak and squeal. These sounds01:17:28
will increase the irritating effect01:17:30
of the product and, therefore, the process of its01:17:33
destruction will become more pleasant and01:17:35
psychologically valuable, the young man’s idea01:17:41
Mr.01:17:43
Abagur liked the designer very much; he quickly brought the development to01:17:45
completion; he accompanied it with another01:17:49
salary increase; at first, the goodman simply removed01:17:53
some lubrication channels, but without them, due to01:17:55
friction, important parts would deteriorate too early;01:18:03
should not01:18:06
affect the wear and tear of the product and its cost and01:18:09
it needs to be made miniature because the robot is01:18:11
already packed to capacity with deteriorating01:18:15
additions Marvin made a small01:18:17
block but the temple turned out to be too01:18:19
artificial the increase affected the01:18:22
costs In addition, the device was poorly01:18:24
placed the01:18:26
optimal solution was not possible by01:18:28
staying late at the factory, Goodman01:18:31
lost a lot of weight and became01:18:33
irritable. But Zhanna seemed to be his01:18:36
complete01:18:37
opposite; a faithful, loving,01:18:40
caring wife. At home, a delicious dinner was always waiting for him01:18:43
and there was someone to complain about01:18:46
difficulties and there was someone to hear01:18:48
encouraging words from when her husband went to01:18:51
work. Lotta looked after the household01:18:56
machines; it kept her busy. no more than01:18:58
half an hour And after she read the hell, knitted01:19:01
and broke Goodman's robots, it was a little01:19:05
worrying whether it was a joke, three or four01:19:07
spoiled robots a week But01:19:10
everyone has the right to a hobby And not to01:19:12
say that it greatly affected the family01:19:15
budget Marvin purchased the product of his factory at01:19:19
cost when Goodman finally01:19:22
came to a dead end, another designer,01:19:25
Ger, proposed a new system for controlling the01:19:28
movements of the robot; it was based on the01:19:31
principle of control and allowed the robot to01:19:34
enter the room with a01:19:39
degrasse roll of 10 degrees, affecting the01:19:42
work of the owner. The most01:19:45
annoying built-in01:19:47
random number generator made the product01:19:50
stagger at random intervals01:19:53
in the manner of a drunken robot, he never dropped01:19:56
his knife, but the impression was that he would01:19:59
definitely drop it. Of course, such a01:20:02
spectacular development gave a powerful impetus to01:20:05
all regressive engineering, and Goodman01:20:08
still managed to build his creaking into a01:20:10
squealing, and not just anywhere, but into the01:20:13
roll control unit in his technical journals01:20:16
the name flashed next to the name of Deta Ger the01:20:20
release of a new line of abago robots It became01:20:23
a sensation then and Goodman decided to01:20:26
take a long-term leave from the factory and01:20:28
accept the post of Supreme President of01:20:31
Tranai, he felt indebted to the01:20:34
society of this planet if earthly01:20:37
ingenuity and the high level of01:20:39
technology allow such effectively01:20:41
worsen the best in the matter of improving the worst,01:20:45
they will not at all have the price of tranai without even a01:20:48
little Utopia and he will certainly achieve01:20:51
Complete perfection when the reins of power01:20:54
are in the right hands and Marvin01:20:58
headed to the military office for a serious01:21:01
conversation about change - this, of course,01:21:05
was said thoughtfully by the Minister for01:21:07
Immigration standing at the window and absentmindedly looking01:21:10
at passers-by But we have01:21:12
had a social structure for a long time and it01:21:15
works well. I don’t even know what01:21:18
can be improved here, for example, on the throne and01:21:21
zero crime because you01:21:23
legalized it, exclaimed Goodman, they avoided01:21:26
solving the problem That’s all We01:21:28
We have a different opinion On this01:21:30
matter And we don’t have poverty because everyone01:21:33
steals from each other, you01:21:35
decided the issue of providing for the elderly in the same01:21:38
manner and turned them into beggars. For me,01:21:41
this is an unplowed field for reforms. Well,01:21:44
let’s say - the militia answered this, and yet01:21:48
I I think the minister ok01:21:51
rushed to the wall mid-sentence and tore off the gun got caught01:21:55
Good looked out the window an01:21:58
unremarkable man was walking past, there was a bang,01:22:01
a passer-by swayed and collapsed on the sidewalk,01:22:04
the policeman shot him with a rifle with a01:22:07
silencer. Why did Goodman gasp, a01:22:10
potential killer - the militia explained01:22:14
how it is very simply obvious01:22:17
We don’t have crime on the planet, but we have to deal with01:22:19
the potential, alas, we have to deal with01:22:23
his potential killer, he01:22:26
killed five - Milit answered, but01:22:30
damn it. It’s also impossible. You didn’t01:22:32
arrest him, didn’t try him, didn’t provide01:22:35
a lawyer. Is it really in my power?01:22:38
Milit’s voice could be heard lightly01:22:40
We don’t have irritation of the police, just like01:22:43
judges and lawyers, there’s no one to detain to01:22:46
defend and sentence the villains to a01:22:48
full-fledged murderer. We consider the one who has01:22:50
10 ruined souls01:22:54
outside the window to confidently walk along this path, do01:22:57
n’t you think that I could sit and01:22:59
calmly watch him pass by the way, it’s01:23:02
my duty to protect citizens, don’t doubt it,01:23:06
I carried out the necessary investigation and01:23:08
established the degree of guilt, it’s unfair01:23:12
- Marvin cried. And what does01:23:15
justice have to do with it, too? He also switched to shouting.01:23:17
What could01:23:20
justice and01:23:22
utopia have in common? Everything01:23:24
with difficulty pulled himself together; justice01:23:27
- that foundation on on which01:23:29
human dignity is based, the desire01:23:32
for society is just beautiful words -01:23:35
Milit interrupted, returning the usual good-natured smile to his face.01:23:37
But you have to be a realist,01:23:41
my friend, utopia We have created for01:23:43
ordinary people, not for saints, for saints, it is of no use01:23:47
if it is impossible to rid01:23:50
human nature of its inherent01:23:52
shortcomings that There’s no point in pretending01:23:55
that they don’t exist, you just have to adapt to them.01:23:58
We believe that the01:24:01
police apparatus and the judicial-legal01:24:03
system tend not only to tolerate01:24:06
crime, but also to create01:24:09
fertile ground for it; believe me, it’s much better to01:24:12
not allow the very possibility of01:24:14
an offense; the01:24:16
vast majority of my people agreed with this fellow citizens01:24:19
but when a crime is committed And this01:24:24
can only be accomplished by a potential01:24:26
crime stubbornly stood his ground Milit01:24:29
But even this happens less often than one01:24:32
might expect when the problem makes01:24:35
itself felt we solve it quickly and simply01:24:39
What if you make a mistake and shoot an01:24:42
innocent person in the innocent we we don’t shoot.01:24:46
That’s completely out of the question, why, yes,01:24:49
because - Milit answered that any person01:24:52
was liquidated by a member of the ruler01:24:55
and not under the law; potential criminal01:24:59
Marvin Goodman was briefly01:25:02
speechless. Finally, he said. It looks like the01:25:05
government here has much more power01:25:07
than it seemed to me at the beginning,01:25:11
Milit correctly confirmed, but it’s not so much How01:25:13
could you imagine with an ironic01:25:16
smile Goodman asked And what do I01:25:19
still have the right to apply for01:25:21
the position of01:25:23
Supreme Of course it is yours and without01:25:26
any reservations, only consent is required from you01:25:29
Goodman thought hard about01:25:33
whether he really wants to take the presidential01:25:35
post, no doubt someone - then he must run the01:25:38
state to protect the citizens, it is absolutely01:25:42
necessary to carry out a couple of reforms in01:25:45
this utopian asylum for the insane01:25:48
Yes, I would not mind - said Goodman, the01:25:51
door opened with a roar and into the office of the01:25:54
Supreme President Borg Hooray How01:25:58
lucky you can01:26:00
move into the National Palace even today I01:26:03
I’ll pack my things in a week And in the meantime you01:26:06
will make a final decision. I guess01:26:09
I need to go through some kind of procedure,01:26:12
we’ll do without procedures, I’m already01:26:15
sweating. Borg no bureaucracy, the post01:26:19
has passed, the post has been accepted, I’ll give you the01:26:22
presidential seal and What’s the name Goodman01:26:25
glanced at the militia, the round face of the Minister of01:26:28
Emigration Affairs is not reflected no01:26:31
feelings Okay - said Marvin Borg01:26:34
grabbed the presidential seal to remove01:26:36
it from his neck, the explosion was sudden and strong,01:26:41
paralyzed with horror, Goodman stared at the01:26:47
mutilated president,01:26:50
stood staggering for a while and then fell to the floor, took01:26:54
off his jacket and threw it over the dead man's head,01:26:57
Marvin got to the chair and He collapsed into01:27:01
it, he sat with his mouth open but could not01:27:04
utter a01:27:06
word. It’s a pity for the poor guy, the milite sighed. There was01:27:10
nothing left until the end of his term, but01:27:12
I warned about01:27:15
the construction of a new spaceport, I said01:27:18
that the citizens would not approve, but he argued that01:27:21
two spaceports are better than he can with this01:27:24
disagree, now it’s clear that01:27:27
the old man was mistaken,01:27:28
you want to say in the sense that all01:27:35
members of the government - the minister launched into an01:27:37
explanation - have a personal01:27:40
badge containing a certain amount of01:27:43
brainwash. You’ve probably heard about this01:27:46
explosive, it detonates via a radio signal01:27:49
from a civilian cabin where anyone has access01:27:52
tranai having that01:27:54
in the activities of the top management01:27:57
Ilit sadly added So the unfortunate01:28:00
Borg received his black mark in the end01:28:03
and you allow people to protest01:28:07
against the activities of the authorities by blowing up01:28:11
officials, Goodman said in a hoarse voice from Shock,01:28:13
and there is no other way to01:28:17
vacillate his hands, it’s called a01:28:20
system of checks and counterbalances01:28:24
in our own hands, but we ourselves are in the01:28:27
hands of society, so why was he in01:28:30
such a hurry to resign, but how01:28:33
did it happen that no one warned me01:28:36
and you didn’t ask - the milite answered and01:28:40
Marvin heard mockery in his voice01:28:42
Well, calm down You shouldn’t be doing that I was afraid of the01:28:46
murder of a political figure, a common01:28:49
occurrence on any planet under any01:28:51
government, we approached the solution to the problem01:28:54
constructively and made sure that the01:28:57
common man never lost touch with the01:28:59
government and the government did not01:29:02
try to gain dictatorial powers,01:29:08
anyone can enter a civilian cubicle, but you will be surprised to know how rarely01:29:11
does this happen, of course, sooner or later01:29:14
there will be a hot head Goodman stood up and,01:29:17
without looking at the corpse of the Borg, headed towards01:29:19
the exit, do you still want to become01:29:21
president - Milit asked no, it’s01:29:25
always like this with you earthlings,01:29:28
Milit sadly concluded, agree to accept01:29:30
responsibility only if it is not01:29:32
related to risk, such an idea of01:29:35
the role of a ruler does not seem correct to me.01:29:38
Perhaps you are right, answered Goodman. But I’m01:29:41
still glad that I found out the truth in a timely manner01:29:44
and he hurried01:29:47
home when Marvin crossed the threshold, his01:29:50
feelings arrived in complete confusion, this is01:29:54
actually a trana01:29:56
Utopia or a madhouse the size of a planet Or01:30:00
maybe the difference between these things is01:30:03
insignificant For the first time in his life, Goodman01:30:07
doubted that the acquisition of utopia01:30:09
is good for01:30:11
humanity, that it is better to strive for01:30:13
perfection or to have it, to have01:30:17
ideals or to live by ideals, even if01:30:20
justice is a delusion, then what comes out01:30:24
better? The truths are so sad and01:30:27
confused thoughts overwhelmed Marvin when01:30:30
he walked into his house and saw his wife in the01:30:33
arms of another01:30:35
man, the scene had amazing clarity01:30:38
and unfolded with a frightening01:30:41
duration of an eternity. Jeanne01:30:43
got up, sent on herself disheveled01:30:54
Good saw for the first time in his life from01:30:56
surprise as if he had lost before speech01:30:59
he made small senseless gestures01:31:01
shakes himself off01:31:24
fed up The stranger we were sure that01:31:27
you would come home much later01:31:30
I can imagine how unpleasant it is for you and01:31:33
I sympathize very much What Goodman did not expect were01:31:36
words of consolation from his01:31:39
wife’s lover without answering the stranger he01:31:43
looked straight at the crying01:31:45
Jeanne, how could it have been otherwise suddenly01:31:48
she screamed I had to go for it01:31:52
You don’t love me01:31:54
I don’t love you Why did you get the idea from01:31:58
the way you treat me Zhanna I01:32:02
loved you very much -01:32:05
Goodman said quietly nonsense - she squealed01:32:08
She threw back her head to remind her what you01:32:11
did to me all day long he forced me to tinker01:32:13
around the house, cook and sit within01:32:16
four walls Marvin I felt like01:32:19
I was getting old day after day, the same boring one,01:32:25
and you almost always come home from work and01:32:27
wash up, you don’t even look at me and just01:32:30
talk about your stupid robots,01:32:33
my life is wasted in vain01:32:36
Marvin Goodman belatedly realized that01:32:39
his wife was having a nervous breakdown and said as01:32:42
softly as possible Zhanna Understand this is how01:32:46
life works, a husband and wife walk through it Hand in01:32:50
hand and share everything together,01:32:54
but it’s impossible for one to skim off01:32:58
only the cream and the other as much as possible to01:33:02
[ __ ] women can you finally try to01:33:05
understand this Marvin I can’t - answered01:33:09
Goodman here a woman from birth01:33:11
expects a life full of entertainment01:33:14
and pleasure This is her inalienable right01:33:18
just like a man has his01:33:20
inalienable rights for her to come out of01:33:24
stasis to have fun At a party01:33:26
swim movie watch Zhanna again01:33:30
cried But you are so smart with us,01:33:33
you need to change everything around you, if only I had known01:33:36
that you are not the people of the Earth,01:33:39
why wouldn’t your lover marry you?01:33:50
so that you01:33:53
understand that the world does not converge like a wedge on love, a01:33:57
woman must be practical in such a01:34:00
life, I will soon turn into an old woman And my01:34:03
friends will remain01:34:05
young and young - Goodman repeated after01:34:08
her dully. Well, of course - confirmed the01:34:11
Stranger in der Sinpol, a woman does not01:34:13
age But this is monstrous - exclaimed01:34:17
Marvin, I will be a decrepit old man And my wife is01:34:20
just a girl And you have something01:34:23
against girls - asked Zhanna Are you really01:34:26
going to like the old man - muttered01:34:28
the goodman, he still didn’t understand - Said01:34:31
the Stranger Marvin Well, what are you doing Have I really01:34:35
explained my whole life poorly You will live with a01:34:38
young beautiful wife whose only01:34:41
desire is to bring you joy, and when01:34:44
you die, don’t make such eyes, we are all01:34:47
mortal. I am a young widow, according to the law, I will01:34:50
inherit my money.01:35:04
just as you can see, from this order of01:35:06
things everyone only benefits; the man01:35:09
has a young wife whom he sees01:35:11
only when he wants it at his01:35:13
disposal and a comfortable home and complete01:35:16
freedom, the woman is free from all the burdens of everyday life01:35:19
and is happy with her fate, and besides, her01:35:22
future was01:35:24
necessary from the very began to explain all this01:35:27
Goodman sighed sadly to me and it01:35:31
never occurred to me that you don’t01:35:32
understand - said Zhanna After all, you01:35:35
behaved like that as if you knew the way better, only now01:35:38
I realized how naive I got the01:35:40
man Although I must admit that naivety is01:35:43
one of your pleasant traits In addition, I01:35:46
added languidly she, if I had01:35:49
explained everything to you in a timely manner, I would not have01:35:51
met Rhonda, the lover01:35:54
made a shallow bow, I deliver01:35:57
samples of Greyhound confectionery products from house to house,01:36:09
you will agree, when suddenly a vague01:36:12
dream becomes a reality, you experience a special01:36:15
elation, do you love him,01:36:19
Goodman sadly asked his wife Yes, Zhanna answered01:36:22
Rhonda will be he cares, he will return it01:36:25
Lost time will be kept in stasis01:36:27
As long as it takes, of course, this is a big sacrifice,01:36:30
but he has a generous soul Well, if so -01:36:34
Marvin gloomily concluded I01:36:37
will not stand between you, after all, we are01:36:39
civilized people, I give you a divorce01:36:42
Zhanna, you kill with your own nobility,01:36:45
he folded his arms on his chest and suddenly I read01:36:49
from Thrive’s faces that his action did not01:36:52
delight them; on the contrary, it caused extreme01:36:56
disgust; there are no divorces on Tranai01:37:00
- said Rhonda doesn’t happen at Goodman’s01:37:03
Frost went down the skin in Rhonda’s hand; a01:37:06
blaster appeared in Rhonda’s hand; it’s not a matter of changing01:37:09
marriage partners; moving from family to01:37:11
family it’s too dangerous for public01:37:14
order, so01:37:16
there’s only one01:37:20
way to break off a marital relationship in the first place. What kind of savagery did he cry?01:37:24
This is not a crime01:37:27
when the wife doesn’t object. By the way, that’s one01:37:30
reason to keep her in stasis. Dear, do you01:37:33
agree Marvin? I’m sorry,” Zhanna said and,01:37:37
closing her eyes, blurted out Yes, he aimed the blaster at Ronde.01:37:41
Without a moment's hesitation, Goodman01:37:44
jumped like a fish into the nearest window. The beam01:37:46
passed from above, miraculously, without hitting him. Hey, when01:37:51
ri vnn01:37:54
with his fate, As befits a man,01:37:57
Goodman hit his winter shoulder hard, but he01:38:00
immediately jumped up and fired as fast as he could, the01:38:03
second shot of the blaster burned him hand, the01:38:06
very next moment Marwan took refuge behind01:38:08
the house but did not take advantage of the respite And with01:38:11
all his strength he ran in the direction of01:38:14
the spaceport there, luckily for him, a ship was found01:38:17
ready for launch on the m Goodman01:38:20
got to Gris from there he contacted the ranam01:38:23
bank, withdrew money from the account and bought a01:38:26
ticket to High Gastro meter where he was01:38:28
arrested on suspicion of espionage. But01:38:31
he was soon released by the inhabitants of the planet Ding,01:38:34
on which Marvin allegedly worked, were01:38:36
intelligent amphibians, and during the01:38:38
investigative experiment, he instantly01:38:41
choked, convincingly proving that he was01:38:43
able to breathe exclusively with01:38:46
air; a transport piloted by an automatic machine01:38:48
took him to the double planet01:38:51
Vantino in on the way ses Olga them to the Nev01:38:54

the position of chief robotech And soon01:39:44
he married a miniature dark-haired01:39:47
