Life’s Certainties
Free Script
We open on a couple sitting down at a fancy restaurant.
​
Woman: Wow this place is fan-cy. Maybe I should’ve worn my good heels.
​
Man: You look perfect. I just hope the food is as good as this place looks, I’m starving.
​
The waiter arrives at the table and places two plates in front of the couple. The food serving is extremely small in proportion to the plate.
​
Waiter: Bon appetit!
​
Man (whispering): THIS is the Beef Wellington?
​
The Woman shrugs and they both begin eating their meal. The waiter comes back to the table, once they’ve finished.
​
Waiter: Was the meal to both of your liking?
​
Man + Woman (in unison): Oh yes! It was great! We really enjoyed it!
​
Waiter: Excellent! Here is the bill sir, whenever you are ready.
​
The waiter walks away leaving the Man and Woman shocked when reading the price of the bill.
​
Woman: Are you still hungry?
​
Man: Starving!
​
Woman: Good. I’ll WhatsApp Jenny now to order us an XL pizza for us and the kids.

We open on two coworkers in an office standing by the coffee machine, each with a cup of coffee in their hands.
​
Coworker (1): Remember that Nespresso machine we were talking about yesterday that’s way better than this garbage?
​
Coworker (2): Yeah…
​
Coworker (1): It popped up on my social media right when I got home! Creepy right?
​
Coworker (1) shows Coworker (2) his phone.
​
Coworker (2): Send me that! I’ll start bringing coffee from home from now on.
Coworker (1) looks down at his phone.
​
Coworker (1): Sent! And I’m going to email you some gifs of the big boss that I think you’d enjoy.
​
The boss peaks through the blinds of the window looking through at the coworkers and disappears.
​
Coworker (1): Actually let me just WhatsApp you everything.
​
Coworker (2): Good idea.
​
The two coworkers look at their phone and laugh. The boss peaks again through the blinds, the coworkers quiet down, and once he disappears they continue laughing.

Community Script
We open on a big Hispanic family party. Everyone is laughing, dancing, and eating. There is a small group of family members that are laughing with their phones in their hands.
Man approaches the group.
​
Man: What’s so funny?
​
Camila: We were talking about something funny that Maria said in the group chat.
​
Man: Let me see! Can you add me to it?
​
Camila (nonchalant): Sorry, I can’t.
​
Man: And why not?
​
Camila: The max is 32 people.
​
Man looks over at her phone, reading through the names in the iMessage group chat.
Man walks away and goes to his phone’s App Store and downloads WhatsApp. He goes around asking other relatives to join.
​
We cut to a now large group of family members that are gathered around Man laughing with their phones in their hands. Camila approaches Man from the group.
​
Camila: What are you guys talking about?
​
Man: Oh nothing, just something funny I said in the group chat.
​
Camila: You made another group chat? Add me in it!
​
Man (nonchalant): Sorry, no can do. The max is 1024 people.
​
Camila: We don’t even have that many relatives! Let me see that.
​
Camila, shocked, grabs the Man’s phone and scrolls through the names in the WhatsApp group chat.
​
Camila: You still have 532 people you can add! (pause) You added all of our second cousins, and you even added David first and not me?! We haven’t spoken to him in years, I’m your first cousin!
​
Man: You should’ve downloaded WhatsApp first.
