A man walks into a pawn shop and asks to buy a bronze statuette shaped like a rat for $50. "You'll want to buy this instruction manual for $200," says the shopkeeper. But the man just buys the statue and leaves. As he's driving home, dozens of rats approach his car at a stoplight. As he keeps driving, hundreds more crawl out of the shadows and alleys and begins chasing him. Panicked, the man heads for a pier, his foot smashing the gas pedal. Right before he goes over the edge, he slams on the brakes. All the rats jump into the lake and drown. The next day, the man returns to the pawn shop. Unsurprised, the shopkeeper has a smug look on his face. "I guess you'll be wanting those instructions, huh?" he says, grinning. "Fuck that," the man says. "You got any bronze niggers?"
