Paper Airplanes (Solo 1):
First, you take a standard piece of paper, not too thick, not too thin.
Crease it down the middle, open, taper, bend the corners, bend them in.
Now you want to fold the point down neatly. Got to make a flap.
Then you fold it down the middle. See, it's just a snap!

JIMMY: (Frustrated as he tries to fold a piece of paper) Rats! Rats! And double rats!
JOAN: What's the problem Jimmy?
JIMMY: Oh, this lousy piece of paper just won't do what I want it to do.
JOAN: What are you trying to do?
JIMMY: I'm trying to make a paper airplane.
JOAN: A paper airplane?
JIMMY: Yeah. I figured if I make it big enough, I can catch a flight out of here and get back to civilization.
JOAN: Oh, I know how to make a paper airplane. My dad taught me years ago.
JIMMY: Oh yeah? Prove it.
JOAN: You just fold the paper in half lengthways, like this; crease the fold well, then reverse it.
JOAN: What's the problem Jimmy?
JIMMY: Oh, this lousy piece of paper just won't do what I want it to do.
JOAN: What are you trying to do?
