Sample of script:
Tyler, Morgan, Payton, Jamie walking onstage, talking
Tyler: Nice pants Payton.
Payton: These old things Tyler? . . I was going through my closet, came across these pants, hadn’t worn them in a gazillion years, thought maybe I would try them out.
Jamie: Well for sure they do look good on you Payton.
Payton: Well these pants for sure are way tighter than the last time I wore them!
Morgan: It’s the ambient temperature in your closet that causes it.
Tyler: What’s ambient temperature Morgan?
Morgan: I have zero idea what ambient temperature is Tyler, but when I blame tight fitting clothes on ambient temperature everyone seems to accept it.
Payton: My tight fitting clothes are more due to chocolate cake than ambient temperature.
Jamie: Why did God invent chocolate cake and cheesecake when they are so fattening?
Morgan: It’s a sin is what it is.
VOG: Temptation is sin only when accepted and yielded to.
Tyler: You scare me when you do that.
VOG: Temptations are the work of the evil one. You are, and will be, tempted.
Morgan: Then what hope is there? . . Sooner or later we will give in to Satan’s persuasion.
VOG: Yes Satan is at the front door and if you let him in he may never leave. But I am the safe exit door and I am always there waiting for you to open it.
Tyler: Funny you know . . . it seems the times I am most vulnerable to temptation is when I am at my best.
