water water everywhere
This skit is dedicated to the double water fountain installation on the top floor of the Paramount cinema.Based upon a true story (and a conversation with Marc D Rowland).
[the middle of an office full of cubicles. a couple of guys are standing around chatting]
Rob: Hey man, we're going to hang out at the watering hole. You wanna come?
Chuck: [confused] The watering hole?
Bob: Yeah man, it's the best place to catch the foxes.
[Bob gestures at the double water-fountain installation in the nearby wall]
Chuck: What, you mean the water fountain?
Rob: Pshaw! That's what the nerds call it.
[Chuck is insulted. He scoffs and walks off]
Bob: What a square. Let's go.
[Rob and Bob meander over to the water fountain all cool-like. When they reach it they look around and then take a drink]
Rob: [refreshed] ahhh.
[Rob and Bob lean up against the wall on either side of the double water fountains. They survey the cubicles with a watchful eye]
[a woman is walking towards the water fountain, but then she sees Rob and Bob. She stops. She looks around. She looks at the water fountain. She darts off down a different cubicle lane]
[Rob and Bob nod all cool-like and switch sides. They again lean against the walls.]
[another woman approaches the water fountain. She is unafraid]
Rob: hey Zoe, how's it going?
Zoe: hi Rob. hi Bob.
Bob: come to get some refreshment?
Zoe: ah, ... yeah.
[she glances at Rob and Bob and the water fountains a little nervously, then goes for the water]
Rob: There's nothing like a little water to freshen up the soul.
[Rob and Bob detach themselves from the wall and surround Zoe]
[Zoe gets up from the water fountain and is faced by the two men. Her neck tenses up, and her frightened gaze darts back and forth between them.]
[Zoom out to see a guy with a safari hat watching the whole seen intently. He turns and speaks to the camera]
Safari guy: Here we see a classic example of the predator humans hanging around by the local area watering hole.
Safari guy: Since the watering hole is a regular stop for all of the animals that live in these parts the predators are able to acquire an easy meal out of unsuspecting herbivores.
[Zoom back in to the watering hole. Zoe writes her phone number down on a piece of paper and gives it to Bob.]
