Popcorn
written by: Frank Stanko




Open On: Movie Theatre

Richard: (walking back to his seat, holding his popcorn suspiciously close to his crotch) I got the popcorn.

Nina: Good, I was getting nervous.

Audience shushes the couple

Richard: (anxious) Here, would you like some popcorn?

Nina: No thanks.

Richard: Are you sure?

Nina: Yes.

Richard: (going in for the kill) You don't know what you're missing. Ever since they made it healthy, it's just been getting better.

Nina: (getting the point) Richard, is there some reason you want me to eat some popcorn?

Richard: (nervous) No, of course not.

Audience shushes the couple

Nina: Richard, I want you to know that if you want me to eat the popcorn, I won't do it for sexual pleasure, but for hunger.

Richard: Well of course, Nina. That's what it's for.

Nina: Alright then. (grabs a handfull)

Richard: Well, you don't need to grab so much.

Nina: I didn't grab "so much," I grabbed a good handful.

Richard: You grabbed too much.

Audience shushes the couple

Nina: For goodness sake Richard, how much is too much? Just a minute ago, you wanted me to grab your penis, now you're as tight as a vise.

Richard: I did not want you to grab my penis, I haven't even got my penis in the box!

Nina: Frankly, I don't care about you and your penis. (walks off)

Usher: Sir, I'm afraid you must leave. The audience has filed several complaints against you and the woman sitting next to you. (grabs some popcorn) Hey, good popcorn.

Richard: stares at the usher

[ SUPER: Can't get that on Comedy Central. ]
