Cliff knocks over the set, nearly flattening Neville, who then demands that Jenny be fired from the picture. Immediately after, the crew finds that Charlie, the actor, has been accidentally skewered. The next scene shows Sinclair sitting moodily away from the rest of the cast, when he overhears Jenny and Cliff on the other side of a stage flat talking about the rocket. If ol' Charlie hadn't needed medical attention, then shooting would have proceeded, and Neville would never know who had his precious rocket.
