[ ext. Baseball Diamond - Day ]

[ All are young kids. Dudley is on the mound. Egghead is catching while Jackie is at the plate ]

Egghead: Swing, batter batter, swing (etc.)

[ cut to mound ]

Dudley: Here comes my split-finger-knuckle-curve-banana-knuckle-salmon-fireball!

Jackie: I'll knock it clear out of here!

[ Dudley pitches ]

[ Jackie swings, hits the ball deep to right field ]

[ Kenny, the right fielder, chases the fly ball towards the fence ]

Kenny: I got it! I got it!

[ reaching fence, Kenny jumps as high as he can, about an inch, trying to rob Jackie of a home run. In slow motion, the ball passes over the fence five feet to the right ]

[ Jackie screams, hollers as she circles the bases ]

Jackie: Girls rule, boys drool! (etc.)

[ Dudley hits himself in the face repeatedly with his baseball glove ]

Kenny: Oh no! You hit it into Old Man Allen's Yard!

Egghead: Now we'll never get our ball back!

[ Dudley peeks over the top of his glove ]

Dudley: Sure we will, you cry baby!

[ The two teams are now all congregated at the right field fence, along with Maggie, Egghead's younger sister, who's holding a Barbie doll by the hair in her mouth ]

Kenny: I'm not going over that to get it!

Jackie: How scary could it be?

Kenny: Real scary! Some people say Old Man Allen is the devil!

Jackie: That's just retarded talk. [ sighs ] Let me look.

[ Jackie approaches the fence and peaks over ]

[ footage of Hell is shown, including clips of exploding volcanoes and various Hell beasts from horror b-movies ]

[ Old Man Allen, a.k.a. Lucifer, sits upon a throne made of the bones of sinners, and notices a baseball come rolling to settle at his feet ]

Jackie V/O: Wow! He really is the devil!

[ cut to Jackie stepping back from the fence a few steps ]

Egghead: My dad is gonna kill me when he finds out!

Dudley: Hey! Maybe then you can get our ball back since you'll be over there dead!

Egghead: Aww, c'mon!

Maggie: You're so mean to my brother, Dudley! [ whacks Dudley with her Barbie ]

Jackie: Look! Someone's gotta go get that ball!

Dudley: I'm not scared, I can get it!

[ approaches fence and looks over ]

[ footage of Hell shown again ]

[ Old Man Allen picks up the ball from the ground, inspects it, sniffs it ]

Old Man Allen: It smells like little children…

[ Old Man Allen licks the ball ]

Old Man Allen: Too bad it doesn't taste like little children.

[ cut to Dudley at the fence ]

Dudley: [ stepping away ] Eww, the ball has devil germs on it now. I'm not touching that!

Kenny: Hey, Maggie, if you go get that ball, we'll let you play.

Jackie: Yeah, you can be on my team.

Maggie: Oh boy!

[ Maggie leaps fence ]

Egghead: I can't believe you guys. You just sent my sister off to be eaten by demons and hellhounds!

Kenny: C'mon Egghead, what's the big deal?

Egghead: What am I gonna tell my dad if she doesn't come back?

Jackie: Why don't you just tell him Maggie went on a long vacation? That's where my dad told me my gramma went after that car crash.

Dudley: It's not like we need her here anyway.

Jackie: Yeah, you love her!

Dudley: Do not!

Jackie: Do too!

Dudley: Do not!

Kenny: Hey, let's see how she's doing.

[ all approach fence ]

[ footage of Hell is shown again ]

[ Maggie approaches Old Man Allen at his throne ]

Maggie: Please, Mr. Devilman, can I have that baseball back?

Old Man Allen: Oooh a tasty little child!

Maggie: Please?

Old Man Allen: I will savor it when I rend your flesh from your bones!

Maggie: You can't do anything to me. My mommy says the devil can only get me if I don't eat my broccoli. And I ate all three!

Old Man Allen: Oh drat! Well, here's your ball little girl. You might not be so lucky next time!

[ Maggie takes ball and walks away ]

[ back at the fence the team celebrates as Maggie returns with the ball ]

Maggie: See, that was so easy.

[ freeze frame on them all jumping and screaming ]

V/O: Brought to you by the Christian Coalition Broccoli Council - if you don't eat your broccoli, the devil will eat you!

[ fade out ]
