INT. GROCERY STORE – DAY
MOTHER (Dratch) and FATHER (Forte) look at baby food on shelves.
Father: (holding two jars) What does Joey like more, blueberry or blackberry?
Mother: Oh, I don’t think he can tell the difference. They’re both so bland…
[The pitchman (Parnell) approaches.]
Pitchman: They are, aren’t they? (turns to camera) Are you sick of buying tasteless baby food for your little one? You don’t have to be…anymore. Introducing…
[Shot of jar of baby food being held up by the pitchman.]
Pitchman V/O: Maronga brand pre-chewed, pre-digested baby food.
[Cut to shot of pitchman speaking to camera.]
Pitchman: In each jar of Maronga, you’ll child will enjoy the rich taste of creamy, processed fruits…specially pre-chewed and pre-digested by animals.
[Cut to shot of a large factory implement mixing baby food.]
Pitchman V/O: See, machines make baby food insipid and flavorless.
[Cut to shot of a squirrel eating a berry in a cage.]
Pitchman V/O: But the excretory system of our forest’s most wonderful creatures ages and refines wild berries and fruits…
[Cut to shot of a small piece of poo in the cage, and hands reaching in to sift through it.]
Pitchman: …making every jar of Maronga baby food taste like the essence of nature itself.
[Cut to grocery store. The mother and father are now looking at Maronga products.]
Father: (holding two jars) Does Joey prefer Ferret Blueberry or Skunk Blackberry?
Mother: (smiles) I think he likes them all, dear!
[The pitchman approaches, speaking to the camera.]
Pitchman: (laughs lightly) Maronga brand baby food…because if it doesn’t come from the anus of an animal…it’s not good baby food.
Pitchman V/O: (quickly) Also available…Rat Rhubarb, Opossum Cherry, and Dung Mite Applesauce.
