Case Study: Greased Interrogation |
Screen and music fade in. Smo and Gro have switched seats.
Smo: Welcome to today's NGFL: Case Study. I'm Smo and (points to left) this is Gro. Today we would like to welcome a special guest to the show. This guest will have the privlege of suffering from the wrath of a "Gro Interrogation". Everyone welcome our guest, Ella. Ella enters. She nervously walks across the stage and is pushed into a chair. Lights go out and suddenly a spotlight lowers from the ceiling and is aimed on Ella. Gro: (Tilting the light into Ella's eyes) So Ella, if that's your real name, can you explain the evil vile thoughts going through a woman's head? Ella: Uhhhh....what (Raises hand to shield eyes.) Gro: (Steps into the light in a detective type suit) You heard me. Would you quit playing dumb. Smo: (Heard in background) Good luck with that. Ella: What are you talking about? Gro: (Kicks garbage can across the room) This is no time for silly games! Ella: You've gone mad. Gro: MAD! You're right, I'm mad, now you better come clean! Ella: I bathed today. I'm clean. I even shaved my legs. Smo: (Heard in background) That's a hard one to believe. Gro: (Obviously fed up) Fine, how about explaining to me why girls always date jerks. Ella: My John, John isn't a jerk. (Gets all dreamy eyed) I mean he's no John Travolta but... Gro: (Gags) Ugh..shut up, shut up, shut up! You're not answering my question! Ella: But my John (Travolta) is so dreamy. (Hurling is heard backstage) Gro: That's enough of that!! Ella: (Singing) You gotta shape up cause I need a man and my heart is set... Gro: (Gets right by Ella's ear) SHUT UP!!!! Ella: Well fine, I'm just gonna shut up if you're gonna be that way. Gro: Finally...back to my question! Ella: (Hands Gro her cell phone) Here! Punch send and ask her! Gro: Finally!!! Some answers!! Gro pushes send and sticks the phone to his ear Gro: Yes is this Alisa? Alisa: Yea, who's this. Gro: This is Gro, with NGFL, and I've called to ask a few.... Dial tone is heard over the speakers Gro: Must have been a bad connection, hold on. Gro dials again. Gro: Hey I think we had a bad.... Click is heard, then dial tone Gro: Ok, woman! You wanna play games. (Dials again) Alisa: Hello Gro: (In a female voice) Yes, this is the "Women Who Date Jerks and Make Nice Guys Finish Last Society", and I would like to ask you a few questions. Alisa: Oh...ok. Gro: (Looks toward Smo as if saying, "She's got to be blonde") Uhm...ok...Yes, why did you decide to date the guy you are dating? Alisa: He's mean, and he treats me like dirt, and he cheats on me, but he's cute. Gro: Oh I see...we'll call you back later and let you know your admission status. Alisa: Oh please, please, please let me in. Gro: (Hangs up the phone) Women!! (Turns toward Ella) Ella: (Still singing Grease tunes) Gro: (Clears throat) Hey. (Yelling) ELLA!!!!! Ella: Yea, what? Gro: Sheesh nevermind. Smo it's back to you, buddy! Smo: Will Gro ever find the answers he's looking for? Will nice guys ever finish first? Will Ella ever stop singing those stupid Grease tunes? (Throws script at Ella) (Thump is heard in background) Ella: Owwww. Smo: (Continuing where he left off) Will this endless search for truth ever come to an end? I very seriously doubt it, but until next time, this is Smo signing off. The screen fades to black. |
