Uh, deal? I walk up to the third door and pull a gold ball from it. I shrug at the madman.

Also, it doesn't say I can only open one box, and all three doors should still have at least one gold ball remaining.

Doesn't say the trolley is a runaway. Don't even need to make deals, you can safely walk away.

It also doesn't say that the track isn't already headed away from the people.
