A Penny Drops
Mike stands on the observation deck of the Empire State Building. It is late afternoon and the sun is just setting. He has a penny clenched between thumb and forefinger. He draws back his arm in ultra slow motion... then snaps elbow, then wrist forward sending the coin out beyond the walls.

In the 10 seconds that it takes to tumble to earth a million separate stories play out in the big apple - tell me yours.

(No really, tell your late afternoon New York story in a 10 second scene.)
