The elevator door opened with a ding and out into the hallway bounced a large red exercise ball. It hit the wall on the other side, rolled off in one direction, and came to a stop. The elevator doors closed. After a moment, the ball took off with a sudden jerk, bouncing down the hall until it slowly rolled to a stop again. Then it took off in another sudden burst of speed, rolling toward the door to the TV lounge.
The door to the room opened, and in bounced the red exercise ball. It hit the side of a chair, causing the ball to change its course and roll in a different direction. It slowed, and then took off toward the chairs and sofa that surrounded the public television. It hit the sofa, but stopped before it could roll off too far in the wrong direction. Slowly the large red ball rolled between a sofa and a chair and around a coffee table. It stopped perfectly in front of the television.
After a moment, the TV turned on. It was the wrong channel, and flipped up through them until reaching Turner Classic Movies. It was a Jimmy Stewart movie. Wait, no, it was a Lionel Barrymore movie with Jimmy Stewart in it. It was Capra, whatever it was. This seemed to satisfy the large red exercise ball as it sat alone in front of the television.
But then the ball seemed to fidget, jerking a bit slightly from side to side, an impression making the top of the ball concave, its sides bulging. It fidgeted, jerked about, leaned to one side briefly, but then seemed to find its calm balance.
The large red exercise ball sat and watched television.
