A driver's dilemma

"Parking payment," a man proclaimed. "By death or taxes?"

The Doctor answered cheerfully: "Death."

"That never happened," the man stuttered. "Will you reconsider?"

"Well..."

"Perfect."

The Doctor's smile froze. A wave of paper-waving people was approaching. Valiantly trying to retreat, he tripped some using his scarf and disarmed others with a childish smile. But the wave eventually swallowed him.

The torrent of benefit- and discount-riddled tax schemes was threatening to pierce his eardrums.

"I'll pay by providing new tax schemes," he shouted when the noise ebbed.

As they stopped to discuss the suggestion's legality, the battered Doctor crawled to safety.
