“Come on guys,” he said. “Marvin’s in the car park. Let’s get on down.”
“What’s he doing in the car park?” asked Arthur.
“Parking cars, what else? Dum dum.”
“But what about the End of the Universe? We’ll miss the big moment.”
“I’ve seen it. It’s rubbish,” said Zaphod, “nothing but a gnab gib.”
“A what?”
“Opposite of a big bang. Come on, let’s get zappy.”
