a scene from a marriage .... sven & lena, part 20

Sven and Lena are driving along a highway doing sixty mph, Lena behind the wheel. Sven suddenly looks over at her and says, “Honey, I know we’ve been married for twenty five years, but I want a divorce.”
Lena says nothing but slowly increases speed to seventy mph.
Sven says, “I don’t want you to try to talk me out of it, because I’ve been having an affair with your best friend, and she’s a better lover than you are.”
Lena stays quiet but speeds up as her anger increases.
“I want the house,” Sven insists, pressing his luck. Again Lena speeds up, to eighty mph.
Sven says, “I want the car, too,” but Lena just drives faster and faster.
By now she’s up to ninety mph. “All right,” Sven says, “I want the bank accounts, and all the credit cards, too.”
Lena slowly starts to veer toward a bridge.
This makes Sven a bit nervous, so he says, “Isn’t there anything you want?”
Lena says, “No, I’ve got everything I need.”
“Oh, really,” Sven says, “so what have you got?”
Right before they slam into the wall at a hundred mph, Lena smiles and says, “The airbag.”
