Introduction
It’s Saturday afternoon. Stevie and Mark have just bought their first home. She’s a hard-working graphic designer, heading for her weekly self defence lesson; he’s still the dreamer she met at art school, unemployed and working on his masterpiece: a pictorial alphabet for children. They’re in love. Their first child is on the way. Everything seems to be in perfect order. And then the doorbell rings.
On the doorstep are Gabriel and Lawrence, two door to door salesmen offering a “free estimate”, who convince the couple the walls of their house are about to collapse round their ears.
As luck would have it, they have an amazing product that can fix the problem…
