[[Beret guy walks up to a figure, holding his phone.]]
Beret guy: My phone's about to die.
[[They stand and look at each other. Beret Guy's phone seems a bit bigger.]]
Figure: Where'd you get a big iPhone? I didn't think they were out yet.
Beret guy: It's my regular one. It's just dying.
[[His phone is now the size of a tablet.]]
Beret guy: As it consumes its battery, it heats up and expands. Soon it will swell to enormous size, engulfing us both.
[[His phone is now the size of a badger.]]
Beret guy: Then it will collapse in a violent explosion!
Figure: ... Do you want to borrow my charger?
Beret guy: That would only make it run out faster!
{{Title text: When it explodes, it will cast off its outer layers, leaving behind nothing but a slowly fading PalmPilot, calculator, or two-way pager.}}
