How about a curse? Say, everybody who played the piano was never heard from again. The piano builder might be an old Egyptian craftsman who smuggled cursed jewels from the pyramids into the bowels of the piano action. Only a RPT could exorcise this curse by using his Verituner which was still being updated at the factory. In the meantime, a PTG associate could be assigned to sprinkle the piano with Protek, while the RPT was laboriously researching the problem on the pianotech archives. Finally, when the piano is eventually "cured" it is put on display at the Piano 400 exhibit just opening at the Smithsonian. Just a thought.
