	Intro
	Scene	Mehmet and Manni are looking under the hood of the car, trying to figure out what's wrong. They think it might be that some of the cables are not correctly connected. As Mehmet attmpts to fix it, Manni warns him that the buyer is on his way. Manni volunteers to fix the cables while Mehmet talks with the buyer.
	Scene	The buyer tells Mehmet that he already has four cars of the same type, but with different colors. The buyer wants to test the engine, but as he turns the key the car horn goes off. Mehmet pops the hood and whispers to Manni that it was the wrong cable. Mehmet tells the buyer that everything is in order now and that he should try the engine again.
	Scene	As the buyer turns the key, the windshield wiper starts. A small bang is heard as Manni connects yet another pair of wires, and the buyer turns the key and the radio starts. Shortly afterwards, the buyer claims to hear some weird sounds under the car--it sounds like a voice. Mehmet says that he can't hear anything. The buyer is convinced that the car is haunted, and leaves.
	Scene	Manni comes out from under the car and proudly tells Mehmet that he believes he found the correct cable. Mehmet tells him that the buyer has left because he thought the car was haunted.
