And there’s the answer. Jason wants to drag this match back into the darkness that is always just this side of everydayness. The people on that platform aren't even thinking about their lives, everything is proceeding so ordinarily, and Jason is threatening to change everything in an instant. To send them hurtling into the abyss. Or at least into a long, inconvenient track construction delay
There was a television series in the 70s called Supertrain. It was about a nuclear-powered passenger train, which, like the band Train, would be just a horrible, horrible idea. Anyway, it was basically The Love Boat on tracks, except it had the inevitability of a catastrophic disaster hanging right over it. If the Love Boat sinks, it might drown Mac Davis and Loni Anderson, but most people would consider those acceptable losses. If the Supertrain blows up outside an orphanage, however we have a China Syndrome with a beer car.
Play by play commentary for this match is provided, as it happens, by Kevin Guilfoile.
