Thomas Block, director of the A. U. student political union, estimated that 3000 students have already been placed on campus and added that if the administration does not make more space available soon, students might seize a building...
...SECOND episode's equally long tracks begin to place dark foreground objects before the characters, creating a more typical Ophuls space, even as we move from a light comedy (the soldier and the whore) toward more serious affairs.

More serious, no electric car can cruise much farther than 80 miles or longer than a few hours without having to stop to be recharged...
