‘DENTITY CRIS-CHESS (Video sketch)

Int. Chess Board- Day

A chess game is going on and we’re zoomed into KING and QUEEN’s faces.

KING
(whispered)
Ehhem, Queen?

QUEEN
(whispered)
Yes, King, what is it?

KING
I…I have something I need to tell you.

QUEEN
Can’t it wait till after the game? We’re getting crushed here.

KING
I don’t want to wait any longer. After each game there’s always another and another in this insufferable pace each day. I’m tired of it!

QUEEN
King what are you talking about?

Beat.

KING
I want to go back to school.

QUEEN
What?

KING
I don’t want to be a king anymore. I want to go to culinary school and open my own restaurant!

QUEEN
Oooh it is always like this with you, isn’t it. You’re gonna go to law school, you’re gonna be a gymnast, now you want a restaurant, you know what? You’re just talking nonsense!
