Hardly Working: Drawing Board
By CH Writing Staff
WRITER'S ROOM
Sam, Emily, Dan and Jenny sit in the writer's room.
SAM
OK, we still have to make a few
more videos tonight. Any ideas?
DAN
So, like, you know how cheetos turn
your fingers orange? Well, what if
other foods did that, right? So I'm
eating a banana and I'm all,
"Yikers! Nanners turned my fingies
yeller!"
Groans all around.
SAM
Dan, back to the drawing board.
An OMINOUS MUSICAL STING. Everyone looks terrified.
DAN
Sam, please...
SAM
(menacingly)
Back to the drawing board, Dan!
Streeter and Pat enter as medieval torturer henchmen.
They're both filthy and speaking in thick cockney accents.
They wear peasant garb. They grab Dan and drag him away.
DAN
SAM! PLEASE!
STREETER
He's gonna like you, boy'o!
PAT
He's gonna like you bunches, mate!
CUT TO
INT. TORTURE CHAMBER
Streeter and Pat drag into the torture chamber, ruled by
Gabrus, dressed as an inquisition torturer.
GABRUS
(high british accent)
What have we here?
STREETER
Writer wif bad ideas, sir.
PAT
Sam sent 'im back to the drawing
board.
GABRUS
I see.
Streeter and Pat hoist Dan onto the Drawing Board, a
medieval torture device like the rack. Dan is screaming.
Gabrus takes a big scythe and cuts his shirt open (like in
Braveheart)
GABRUS
Perhaps, young man, this will draw
an idea from your thick skull?
Gabrus turns a wheel and stretches Dan. Dan screams.
DAN
OK! OK! SO YOU KNOW NEW CAR SMELL?
WELL A GUY BUYS A NEW CAR BUT
INSTEAD IT SMELLS LIKE A NEW PAIR
OF SNEAKERS AND HE'S ALL 'HEY, YOU
GOT YOUR NEW SMELLS MIXED UP!'
GABRUS
Oh, I'm afraid that's just not
funny enough.
STREETER
I don't fink he likes 'at one,
mate.
Streeter and Pat laugh like doofs. Gabrus takes out a pair
of tong things and pulls Dan's pants off.
DAN
Wait, WAIT! So you know how you can
never get the last bit of
toothpaste out of the tube? It's a
song about that!
GABRUS
You cannot be serious, can you?
Why, it's as if you desire a holy
comedy cleansing!
Gabrus does something with the tongs, causing Dan to scream
and cry.
PAT
Give it to 'im! More!
Gabrus starts piling weights on top of Dan's chest.
GABRUS
Perhaps, gentlemen, our writer here
will think better under a bit of
pressure, no?
DAN
(strained)
JewLu: Jewish Hulu.
GABRUS
I like that.
DAN
Really.
GABRUS
NO!
PAT
You fink people wanna watch that
rubbish?!
Gabrus puts more weight on.
DAN
Mr. Driver's Ed, a horse driving
instructor.
GABRUS
Surrender your body to the holy
craft of comedy!
He piles more weight on, Dan is almost dead.
DAN
(passing out)
Law and Odor: Silent but Deadly
Unit...
Gabrus chuckles. Pat and Streeter laughs like goons.
PAT
I'd watch that!
STREETER
I like it cuz it's two fings I know
about but haf'nt fought of togefer.
GABRUS
The drawing board produces yet
another fantastic idea! What would
we do without it?
Gabrus pulls the weights off.
CUT TO
INT. OFFICE.
We're in the sketch. Dan and Emily are dressed like
detectives. Kevin is the dead body.
DAN
Once the gnarly beef wind enter his
nose, it was al over. His body went
into anaphylactic shock.
EMILY
Beans, beans aren't always good for
your heart.
The law and order "CHU-CHU sound" but as farts.
End.
