Brad lived in California and was a lifelong environmentalist. He was
sick of the world; of Covid-19, Brexit, Russian belligerence, global
warming, racial tensions, and the rest of the disturbing stories that
occupy media headlines.
Brad drove his car into his garage and then sealed every doorway and
window as best he could. He got back into his car and wound down all
the windows, selected his favorite radio station, started the car and
revved it to a slow idle. Four days later, a worried neighbor peered
through his garage window and saw him in the car. She notified the
emergency services and they broke in, pulling Brad from the car.
A little sip of water and, surprisingly, he was in perfect condition,
but his Tesla had a dead battery.
