Coke and Milk
Coca Cola mixed with milk. The most elite of cocktails. It is your favorite drink. And a song. It is your favorite song. Wow what a video it has both.

dennis reynolds – tepid
A monologue for Dennis Reynolds from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia.
INT. INTERVIEW ROOM
DENNIS is sitting on a chair with a blank white background describing his evening.
DENNIS
They told me they were coming for dinner at about 8.
So I started getting ready after work, you know, cleaning, showering, *sexily with raised eyebrows* grooming, regular stuff.
I put the meat in the oven at about 7 and put the water on to boil for the noodles.
Then I thought I’d set the mood a bit. I turned on some smooth jazz and poured myself a drink. I put on a sharp outfit. What kind of a host would I be if didn’t look the part?
So now I’ve got a little buzz and I head back to put the noodles on, and the water…*nervous chuckle* heh ….still wasn’t boiling *nervous strange laughter* hahaha.
I lifted the pot and looked at the burner…red hot.
So whatever a little quick to the trigger there *increasingly nervous laughter* hahaha, so I brushed my teeth, flossed again and came back for the noodles.
*very calm but mischievous face* Now here’s where the story gets interesting.
*quiet talking, serious* The water still wasn’t boiling. I dipped my finger in the pot. Tepid.
*livid and almost spitting upset* I’m not boiling a swimming pool here it was a small pot of water!
*absolutely livid* Then I looked at the clock and it’s 7:45?! Its been warming up for 45 minutes are you serious?!
*almost screaming* My guests were arriving in 15 minutes and I guess the noodles weren’t going to be ready.
*back to normal* So I called them up and told them not to come.
I would rather sit here alone than be appear unprepared.
HOST (Off Screen)
Was there something wrong with the stove?
DENNIS
Something wrong with the stove?

silicon valley cold open – chief
A cold open for the Silicon Valley season four premiere. ERLICH has just purchased Pied Piper for a million dollars and they’re reinventing themselves as a video chat company.
FADE IN
INT – ERLICH’S HOUSE
RICHARD, DINESH, GILFOYLE, and JARED are at their computers. Bachman enters wearing an Indian chief head-dress with way too many feathers on it and audibly clears his throat.
ERLICH
Can I get everybody’s attention please. Now that I’m the primary shareholder of Pied Piper things are going to be a lot different around here. First things first. Everybody will refer to me as “The Chief”. And not the condescending childlike chief, but the deeply respected leader of the tribe Chief like Chief sitting bull or that guy in Pocahontas who everybody respects.
JARED
Oh, Chief Powhatan. He was a deeply powerful and respected warrior.
ERLICH
Exactly. Now second things second. We need to get this product in front of everybody with a laptop. What good is it having the best video chatting utility ever made if nobody knows about it.
RICHARD
I agree, but we just need to keep improving the product and the marketing will happen organically. People will find value in it because it’s a valuable technology. We’re oozing in value. That’s the marketing plan. Ooze value.
DINESH
That’s an interesting head-dress there chief.
ERLICH
Mildly condescending use of “Chief”, but a great complement coming from you.
ERLICH bows at DINESH
DINESH
I’m Pakistani Chief.
ERLICH winces and is increasingly upset.
ERLICH
THAT’S TWO STRIKES. As tradition states, the number of feathers indicates the number of sexual partners that I have encountered. And as you can see here, I have encountered a flocks worth.
RICHARD
You know that you’re not actually the Chief Executive Officer of the company right? Your purchase gave you another vote, but we still have to decide at the next board meeting.
ERLICH
HAH we’ll see about that. Who better than The Chief to lead our humble tribe.
GILFOYLE
Humble indeed chief.
ERLICH
That’s strike THREE!
A toilet flushes and JIAN YANG comes out of the bathroom looking at his phone.
JIAN YANG
No toilet paper chief.
ERLICH
GOD DAMNIT!

the office cold open – brownies
A cold open for The Office season two.
FADE IN
INT. OFFICE – ACCOUNTING AREA
MICHAEL holds a tray of brownies and is persistently trying to get OSCAR to eat one.
MICHAEL
Come on you have to try one! I was up all night making them. Come on come on come on….
OSCAR continues to push MICHAEL away while he pushes a brownie towards his mouth.
OSCAR
No Michael I will not eat or do anything that you say today. Get away from me!
MICHAEL continues to persist aggressively while ANGELA, KEVIN, and others can be heard in the background telling him to stop.
JIM TALKING HEAD
JIM
Michael has declared today “Extreme prank day”. And we’re all afraid.
INT. OFFICE – ACCOUNTING AREA
MICHAEL is getting upset
MICHAEL
Guys come on, would I put something in the brownies? That would be too easy. Do you really think that little of my pranking skills?
Phillis
Well if there’s nothing wrong with them why don’t you eat one?
MICHAEL
Maybe I will!
Michael picks up a brownie and looks deeply at it, hesitating to eat.
MICHAEL
You know what? I made these for you people. Will you show a little consideration? It would be selfish of me and I’m not selfish. I’m the least selfish man on earth.
Dwight runs over from his desk
DWIGHT
I will eat them Michael. I respect you and your unselfish ways.
Dwight eats the brownies while the entire office silently watches him. Michael tries to hold back laughter.
DWIGHT
Yes I know the brownies were poisoned. Why else would he be giving them to the accounting department? Overstaffed. Luckily I’ve built up an immunity to all common poisons by slowly giving myself larger and larger doses. Michael wouldn’t have access to high end poisons.
MICHAEL TALKING HEAD
Michael is crying laughing
MICHAEL
He’s going to poop so much.
