Four Bathrooms and a Urinal
Dirk runs up to Daphne, a human woman who wears sexiness like a coat made of teen models.
DIRK: Here are flowers. They are not a secret anymore.
Dirk is tall.
DAPHNE (giggles three times): Not like my other secret flowers.
Daphne winks. Her mascara is spidery.
DAPHNE: Why are you here, Dirk? Is it the bathroom problem again?
DIRK: No, I have a toilet this week, thank you.
Dirk puts one foot on a chair like a sports guy giving a speech about winning.
DIRK (his tan gleaming the color of Florida rust): I love you, Daphne.
Daphne swoons everywhere. And nowhere. She swoons in a specific place—near Dirk, who is now her romantic.
DAPHNE: I love… toilets.
They laugh about love. But not about the toilets. The toilets get upset at that.
Broman Holiday
WILLY (gasping): You are an undercover prince?
The hospital lights glow brightly so that nobody cuts into the wrong person anymore.
PRINCE PETER (nodding his chin, which resembles a butt): I am the undercover prince for all of Brotopia.
He takes a golden cape out of his man-satchel and swings it around his shoulders.
WILLY: Wow. That is a cape.
PRINCE PETER: I own 176 capes—one for every day of the year.
The hospital lights began to buzz in their own language. Willy gets down on one of his two knees.
WILLY: But how can an undercover prince love me, a child surgeon who saves countless adorable lives?
Willy pounds the ground, which is tile, so the pounding isn’t a very good idea.
PRINCE PETER (looking deeply into Willy’s twirling eyes): We will be equals once I am a child surgeon, too. Hand me the knife.
The two sweethearts live happily ever after and cut open a little girl, who was sick with bleeding.
The hospital lights looked from high above. That little girl was their daughter.
Love Potion Number Whine
GWENDOLYN (squeaking in frustration): But I have given you the Love Potion!
MARY ELLEN: I love this goat.
Mary Ellen holds the goat to her busty bosom.
MARY ELLEN: I ate the love potion and looked at a goat. Now I love this goat.
GWENDOLYN: Oh, what a situation.
Gwendolyn huffs. She holds up the “Love Potion How-To Pamphlet.”
GWENDOLYN: Yes, that is how the Love Potion works.
GOAT: I am honored by your love, Mary Ellen. I have a successful career job on the mountain eating things.
The goat bleats. It sounds like the most orchestra of songs.
GOAT: My name is Joanne, by the way.
MARY ELLEN: It is nice to meet you, Joanne.
Mary Ellen laces up her hiking shoes.
MARY ELLEN: Let us go to the mountain to leap around.
They leave to go to the mountain. Its name is Doug.
GWENDOLYN (pinging longingly): When will I learn not to drug women?
Everyone laughs.
Lights, Camera, Love!
Kerilynne stomps across the glamorous red carpet to get away from Dominic. She is a sexy movie star and has irritable bowel syndrome. This makes her relatable.
KERILYNNE: I hate you!
The cameras flash to take a photo of her. Dominic holds one of them. He is a paparazzo and follows Kerilynne everywhere, which is romantic.
DOMINIC: No, you don’t hate me.
He grins, his teeth flashing like the cliffs of Dover. He was British.
DOMINIC: Shut up, also. You’re hysterical, babe.
Kerilynne tosses her blonde hair over her shoulder, but an assistant catches it just in time.
KERILYNNE: I don’t hate you? But that’s my whole thing. I hate the Redcoats ever since I made a movie about Woman George Washington. I am feisty.
DOMINIC (chuckling at her female antics): When I am rude, you get horny. But I will be nice sometimes, too.
He reaches down and picks something up.
DOMINIC: Here is a cat for you to have when I am failing.
KERILYNNE: I adore cats. And dancing to rap in my underpants.
The cat smirks for a while.
The Big Ick
RUPERT: We are best friends. We have been friends since childhood, Natalie.
NATALIE (nodding innocently): Yes, Rupert. We have been many friends over the years.
She bites her lip in a hot way, not with gore and tearing.
NATALIE: And yet, after years of being cool buds, I feel…
Rupert looks at her confidently. Rupert is ripped. Rupert is seventeen years older than Natalie. He leans in closer to her at the zoo, where they are.
RUPERT: And yet…
NATALIE (in her zoo uniform, because she is a professional Cute Animal Cuddler): Yet…
RUPERT (noticing how clean Natalie is because she only cuddles washed animals—it is better for her science): Yet…
NATALIE (scooching closer to him because his job was being handsome, and he did it most days): Yet…
RUPERT: Yet…
NATALIE: Yet…
The sun sets. They can never leave the zoo now.
