I love a well-place allusion…in fact, I’m in debt for my love of well-placed allusions.
That being said, really – you didn’t ditch your real life so action shot of it falling? shame, shame

It was tempting, it was tempting. But no, partly because I didn’t want to absorb the carnage of when the sword fell. Dionysius II himself didn’t stay at Damocles’ side, why should Simpson/Hemstead. Besides, there was coffee and Entemann’s donuts waiting.
