Act II - The Survivors


-Child enters carrying a broken Barbie-

-Child holds up a White Barbie (badly broken)-

Child of Common Sense: "Barbie was my sisters. She wouldn't let me play with her toys so I had to do it... Mommy was mad..."

-New Child Enters-

-Child holds up an African American Barbie-

Child of Present-Day: "She wouldn't make love to Ken, so I helped him beat her up."

-Transition-

Woman of Phrase: "The past seems like a prize won long ago, until a suitible replacement can be found. Our search continues in vain...

Journey's of Route can be discovered in the bends of trees. Hidden from our opticals is the tiresome worry of growth from the virus known as 'The Future'. The question lies in the solution. We never did like the hovering cars..."

Man of Authority: "I don't like children. We are forced to. Having children is a way of saying 'I love my wife a lot' I guess. Can't love be just what it is? Children mess it up. The two people that made this thing are just lost because they have no idea what they got themselves into. Thier love shifts from themselves to the child, breaking thier previous relationship. It reminds me of things that change. Like caterpilars...

Hang on, I'm not using that example. TOo overused by people trying to make a message. How about a random animal? Hmm... I like the Platypus... Can you understand me now?"

-Man sighs deeply and walks off-

-Transition-

-Two Children enter, A = Skinny, B = Obese-

Child A: "Lets play a game!"

Child B: "Ok! How about we try to tag each other! Who ever gets tagged needs to touch the other person or else they are 'it'!"

Child A: "Alright! But no base ok?! That just isn't fair."

(Child A smiles broadly and touches Child B)

Child B: "Hey! I didn't say start!"

Child A: "Too bad, you are it!"

Child B: "Stop it! I am not!"

-Child B tries to touch Child A to no avail-

Child A: "Heh, where did you learn to play this game?! It is so fun!"

CHild B: "I don't want to play this anymore..."

Child A: "Because you are losing?! Are you a loser? LOSER LOSER LOSER..."

Child B: "I am suppose to ignore you. Thats what mommy said..."

Child A: "LOSER LOSER LOSER LOSER LOSER-"

-Child A keeps chanting and dancing around Child B until he runs off laughing. CHild B falls to his knees eyes downcast and empty-

The Lawyer: "WEll this is just another example of ourselves being rude to other people. Obviously you haven't heard the phrase 'Sticks and stones...'"

-Man in the Distance shouts "I think we are off topic.."-

-Transition-

God: "Well you blew it again. I tried to wipe you all out 64 million years ago... I keep trying to help you end it all. Stop trying to survive damnit! I can only make so many disasters and plagues! Where is Moses when I need him... that idiot tried to save you guys with my smitting staff... that jerk can't really listen well..."

Man of Hopelessness: "Jesus... just smite us all you freakn' idiot!"

-Paying no attention-

God: "Moses! Where the hell are you?!"






Act III

"We have only ourselves... only ourselves to blame..."
