Twittering Liberty

...

Carla visits Liberty Island and receives a tweet.


Liberty: Are you ready for your climb to the crown? It’s 354 steps up.


Carla: I can do it.


Liberty: And it’s 20 degrees hotter inside than out.


Carla: I have two bottles of water.


Liberty: Like your crown.


Carla: Excuse me, you aren’t Miss Liberty.


Liberty: How could I text holding a book and a torch?


Carla: Who are you, then?

Voice-over

Robin: I don’t see any point.


Raven: In?


Robin: Twittering. Tweeting. Call it what you will.


Raven: Tweet and get noticed. Show people where you are and what you’re doing.


Robin: Who would follow my trite tweets?


Raven: The first tweets have already come from space. Fly up there and you’d have an audience.
