Another entry in the 30 second script comp. It has to be about God and Satan replacing the light at the end of the tunnel with an eco-friendly bulb. God is on a stepladder, changing the bulb. Satan is holding the ladder steady. [SATAN] So why are we changing a perfectly good bulb? [GOD] To save energy. [SATAN] Yes, but you’re God. Can’t you… [Satan waves his hand in the air. A potted plant appears suspended in the air]… sort of thing and just make more? [GOD] [testily] Yes I could just… [waves his hand in imitation of Satan. The potted plant blossoms into a myriad of blooms]… but that’s not the point, is it? [SATAN] Why not? What’s the point of being God if you can’t… [waves his hand again. The plant withers and dies]… every now and again? [GOD] Because I have to set an example, don’t I. Have you seen what they’ve done to my planet? If I just [waves his hand again. New shoots leap from the remains of the plant] whenever I feel like it, why should they make an effort? [He climbs down from the ladder.] There! An energy efficient bulb. Now they’ll be able to walk towards the light in an eco-friendly manner. [There is a distant roar that grows in volume. A hells angel arrives on a motorcycle that is belching clouds of black smoke. The bike has obviously just been in an horrendous accident. God and Satan cough] [GOD] One of yours, I think.
