STEVE

Oh what did you do?
|
|
|
|
JIM
|
|
She wanted me to clean my room but I didn't.
|
|
|
|
STEVE
|
|
Yeah she's kind of extreme when she asks you to do something and you don't do it.
|
|
|
|
JIM

|
|
|
SKY
|
|
Lets go to the pool.
|
|
|
|
JIM
|
|
I wonder if there are camera's spying on us in the bathroom?
|
|
|
|
SKY

|
There probably is, those sickos.
|
|
|
|
JIM
|
|
I agree that is sick.
|
|

So lets go to the pool.
|
|

|
SKY
|
|
Ok.
|
|
|
|
JIM
|
|
(leaves the room off screen, and returns a moment later)
|
|
Wait, the pool is out of service.
|
|
|
|
SKY
|
|
No way.
|
|
|
|
SKY
|
|
(leaves the room off screen, and returns a moment later)
|
|
You are right, and that is stupid.
|
|
|
|
INT. CHURCH - NIGHT
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
I am getting ready for my sermon tommorow.
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
Don't I need you to do something else.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
What is that?
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
Bill is creating baby robots that will rule the world and they will attack at nineteen hundered hours tommorow.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
Oh no thats horrible, what can I do?
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
Pray so I will do something about it.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
LORD please don't let Bill's baby robots destroy the world In Jesus's name amen.
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
I will do it, however I will loop tommorow because I have chosen 2 athiests to save the world because why not.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
That sounds like a dumb idea?
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
I want to show people that you don't have to be the greatest and the strongest to make an inpact (you just need to be chosen by God).
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
You are right, not My will, but Yours be done.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
One more thing, whos going in that loop.
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
The two atheists named Jim and Sky, Me, You, Steve, The Cop that pulls you over for a ticket because you sometimes speed.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
What, you said Me, Steve and the cop, why are we involved?
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
Well they need someone to preach the gospel and the cop will arrest them for stealing (they love stealing things, not all athiests do that just so we are clear) anyone who is not in the loop will forget, oh yeah Steve is the storage priest (he will sell the athiests a divine flash drive for $42 dollars)
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
What makes the flash drive divine?
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
The data presists between loops even if destroyed (the files are stored in my cloud).
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
You mean you have a server in heaven?
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
Who said a cloud can't have an IP address.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
I thought clouds were just something that had to do with rain?
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
I make the rules not you, so if I want a cloud to have an IP address, I will make the cloud a server and assign it an IP address.
|
|
|
|
PASTOR
|
|
Ok when is the timeloop range
|
|
|
|
GOD
|
|
Tommorow from zero six hundered hours to twenty hundred hours (because that is when everything gets destroyed).
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
SKY
|
|
What?
|
|
|
|
STEVE
|
|
Like groundhog day and yes I know why it is happening.
|
|
|
|
SKY
|
|
Can you tell me why?
|
|
|
|
STEVE
|
|
Yes, the world will end due to the evil tech guy Bill Wolfenheimer causing destruction with baby robots and God is looping Me, You, Jim, and The Pastor.

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
SKY
|
|
You know what, hince we don't have $42 dollars lets steal some from the cash register.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
COP
|
|
Why did you have to do that?
|
|
|
|
SKY
|
|
I thought we could get away with that, it was only $42 dollars.
|
|
|
|
COP
|
|
Taking $42 dollars or even just a cent is still stealing.
|
|
|
|
COP
|
|

|
|
|
|
JIM
|
|
There is no God.
|
|
|
