History[edit]

Otto Mann was in the line to buy tickets to the film Cosmic Wars, but went into the wrong line and brought a ticket to The Momentum of Things. When he was watching the film, he said that he didn't know British coal miners had it so bad, and that there was blood on Mrs. Thatcher's hands.
