Ivan : You know, it's about time they made a remake of ''The Lord of the Rings''. Enough time has passed.
Mate : Yes, and to make a totally new casting. For instance, Eddie Murphy as Gandalf.
Ivan : [laughs hysterically]
Mate : Eddie Murphy as Gandalf; He likes playing pranks. Let's finish off Sauron with flatulance.
Ivan : [laughs more and more]
Mate : Let's turn all Orcs into Orkos! And then he shrinks Frodo even further, so that he can star in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.
Ivan : [laughs uncontrollably]
Mate : You are somehow laughing really long. Really suspiciously long.
Ivan : [Mate flees. Ivan falls from his chair from laughter]

Mate : I don't understand why I was brought here. What is this?
Inspector : Mr. Mate, this is a routine control. We are randomly testing people to restrain the pandemic.
Mate : But I feel healthy! I haven't laughed for three months now!
Inspector : Yes, but some people don't have any symptoms until they are forced to laugh. Are there any comedians in your family?
Mate : I threw away everything that's funny! Everything! Comedies, DVDs, books. I even threw away Voltaire to only have serious novels.
Inspector : OK Mate, we'll now show you a couple of humorous video clips, and you must endure without laughing.
Mate : And what if I do laugh?
Inspector : In that case, you are sick. You are endangering others with your laugh, and will undergo a two month quarantine.
Mate : What...? Who can guarantee that I won't laugh at some of those degenerates...
Inspector : Quiet! My uncle was infected. He laughed for 120 consecutive hours. He couldn't hold it any longer, so he threw himself from a lighthouse into the sea, where he was eaten by a shark. These are serious things, Mate. Don't underestimate the power of the pandemic. Focus, the testing starts now!
