In the course of the show, disparate elements of the physical world appear to scheme together to wreak havoc on the hapless Eccentric. Things go surprisingly wrong A box, when opened, is upside down, allowing its contents to scatter. A broom, recruited to clean up the mess, promptly falls apart. His sweater enters the fray, tangling itself with the broom handle and dislodging his hat. Surely, this is a deliberate plot.
Matches insolently burn out, just a moment too soon to be usable.
Objects disdainfully drop, just a bit too far to be reachable. It seems that the only explanation is a conspiracy theory worthy of Oliver Stone. The surprises continue, but not always with Avner as the victim. Indeed, at times the surprise is not that things fall apart, but rather that they impossibly come together. You begin to wonder if those mysterious forces behind this conspiracy are not as malevolent as they seemed at first.
