The last screen and its warning, 'no exceptions, no excuses and no escape' is very much in line with "click it or ticket" and all the other threats that have replaced persuasion on the lips of officialdom. Remember, Daddy Knows Best. It seems significant that even humor takes the iron fist in the velvet glove merely as given.
