Bond: What's this?
Nurse: A Motorized traction table for stretching the spine. Some patients call it the rack.
Bond: I can see why.
James gets onto the machine, straddling it like a motorbike
Bond: Where's the kick-starter?
Nurse: Stop fooling around and face down, please.
Bond: Say, why does that speed display have such a large section marked in red?
Nurse: That's a safety measure. If the speed ever went that high, you'd be seriously injured.
Bond: Now, we wouldn't want that!
The nurse pulls a lever that resembles a gear shift, and sets it a couple of notches up. The table begins to stretch Bond at a relatively swift pace
Bond: And why does that lever have positions marked "DANGER"?
Nurse: Oh, you must never use those speeds! They'd be so terribly dangerous.
Bond: I wasn't planning to touch it. I'm not a trained professional. Who designed this thing? If those speeds are dangerous, why even put them there?
