NO BIG DEAL
MESSAGE: Beware of the ways of Lucifer, the Devil.
Lucifer and his demons tap into the curiosity of two young boys. They get the boys, by devilish means, to check out x-rated websites. How do they do it? Subtlety and convincing arguments convince the boys there is no harm in it. The demons names are cleverly spelled backwards.

SAMPLE SCRIPT
(As the lights come up, Brian and Andrew are seated at a computer desk, facing
the audience. The boys are instant messaging with their friends as four of Satan’s
demons, Eltbus, Laedgibon, Sufoeno and Nisrebyc slide in behind them. The boys
do not realize the demons are in the room. They cannot physically see or hear
them.)
| Brian | I would not have thought it possible, but I do believe that Todd is even more lame on the instant messenger than he is in real life. |
| Andrew | So which past or present homecoming queen does he think loves him now? |
| Brian | (Points to the screen) Check this out. He says he got some girl’s address out of one of those sleaze chat rooms. |
| Andrew | Yeah sure, I’ll bet it’s ImaCyclops@yahooooooo.com |
| (Andrew and Brian start laughing.) | |
| (Spotlight comes up in another room, where Brian’s Mother is busy cleaning.) | |
| Brian's Mom | (Yelling so she can be heard) You boys are not doing anything you shouldn’t…are you? |
| Brian | (Shouting) No ma’am. |
| (Mother smiles as she continues her work) | |
| Brian's Mom | (To herself) Such good boys. |
| (Lights fade on Mom) | |
| Nisrebyc | I told you, Eltbus. These two boys do not do anything they are not supposed to. If that weren’t enough, they’ve got the warden checking on them every time they giggle. |
| Sufoeno | That does make it tough, Eltbus. There are a lot of easier targets than these two. |
| Eltbus | I want them all. |
| (Pause) | |
| Now watch. | |
| (H e walks up behind Brian). | |
| Brian, don’t you get tired of the same old stuff. Maybe your friend Todd is on to something. Why don’t you ... | |
