The following is an excerpt from my upcoming screenplay, "THE ADVENTURES OF SUPER PREACHER". I am accepting funding now. BTW "(OS)" means "off screen").
FADE IN:
INT. SUPER PREACHER'S OFFICE. DAY
SUPER PREACHER
Gridget! Have you seen my Strong's Concordance? I have to finish my lesson for Wednesday night! I'm running out of time! Gridget? Gridget!!!
GRIDGET (OS)
Did you look in the bookcase?
SUPER PREACHER
Yes! I'm looking at it right now and...Oh! There it is.
Super Preacher pulls the Strong's Concordance off the bookshelf, opens it up and begins to read it.
GRIDGET (OS)
Did you find it?
Super Preacher doesn't hear her. Keeps reading.
GRIDGET (OS)
I said, "Did you find it". Preacher? Preacher?!! HEY!!!
SUPER PREACHER
What?!!
GRIDGET (OS)
Did you find it?!!
SUPER PREACHER
What?!!
GRIDGET (OS)
Did...you...find...it?!!
SUPER PREACHER
I said, "yes"!
GRIDGET (OS)
Well, why didn't you say so?
SUPER PREACHER
I DID!
GRIDGET (OS)
No you didn't. What?!
SUPER PREACHER
What?!
GRIDGET (OS)
What?!!!
SUPER PREACHER
I can't understand what you're saying!!!!
Something falls out of the concordance. Super Preacher picks it up and examines it. He is upset and begins to shake.
SUPER PREACHER
Gridget! I just found my Easter Sermon from 2 years ago! It was in the concordance! It was in the concordance!!!!! AHHHHH!!!!
GRIDGET (OS)
What?!
Fade To Black
Roll Credits
Of course, this is better with the other scenes.
As together we stand and sing.
