    SOMEONE is being carried by The MINER on them back as they run 
    along a path.
    
                      SOMEONE
               Let’s fucking go! 
    
                      MINER
               So, what’s your name?
    
                      SOMEONE
               Daniel.
    
                      MINER
               Daniel, what happened to your 
                       legs?
    
                      DANIEL
               I forked with a couple of crooks 
               on block 536200.
    
                      MINER
               536200 - I remember the gossip 
                       like it was yesterday.
    
                                  DANIEL
                       This is why I wanna transition 
                       to web3.
    
                                  MINER
                       Why?
    
                                  DANIEL
                       Coz everybody knows my name now.
    
                                  MINER
                       Well, you were the three Daniels 
                       forking bitcoin.
    
    FADE IN image of the three Daniels. 
    Daniel 1 audio: “it's money’s democratic language.”
    
                      DANIEL (O.S.)
               Daniel was talking so smartly 
                       while we forked. 
    
                      MINER (O.S.)
               A-ha.
    
                      DANIEL (O.S.)
                       The other Daniel he would...
    
    Daniel 2 audio: “Use bitcoin to buy drugs sometimes.”
    
                      DANIEL (O.S.)
               Sometimes! 
    
    FADE OUT image of the three Daniels.
    The MINER, still running, tweaks their neck to talk more directly to
    DANIEL.
    
                      MINER
               But, according to the block
               those two Daniels cut you out. 
    
    FADE IN image of the scuffle.
    
                      DANIEL (O.S.)
               We were forking together for years
                       and then one day Daniel and Daniel
                       pushed me over the chain and I 
                       lost my legs.
    
    FADE OUT
    
                      MINER
               That is sad.
    
                      DANIEL
               I don’t wanna be a Daniel!
    
    The MINER stops running and looks into DANIEL's eyes.
                    
                      MINER
               Do you have a shitty name?
    
                      DANIEL
               Yes.
    
                                  MINER
                       Do you desire a new identity?
    
                                  DANIEL 
                       Yes!
    
    A Namecoin template with many names fills the screen.
    
                      MINER 
                               (screaming)
               Namecoin!
                    
    END OF EPISODE
