A priest, a lawyer and an engineer are awaiting execution.
The priest is first to go and is put into the guillotine.
The blade drops and two feet away from his neck it stops, stuck.
The priest proclaims it a miracle from on high and is immediately released.
Next up is the lawyer, placed face-down on the guillotine ready to die.
Again the machine fails two feet from his neck.
"According to your laws, since you failed to execute me, I must be let go", and he is.
Finally the engineer is set to be killed, and placed upon the instrument he is to die upon.
As the blade falls, it stops short once again failing it's only task.
As the engineer looks from his prone position, he examines the failed machine.
"I can totally fix that for you."
