FADE IN: EXT: AFTER LIFE - MUSICAL MEADOWS MANOR
A petite woman wearing a gemstone-studded black dress
ANNA (approaches her husband with stealth
JOHANN (turns sharply, upsetting his powdered wig):
ANNA (steps back and grins wickedly):
JOHANN (face turns red with indignation):
"Shatzi, why are you dressed like that? ANNA (her eyebrows raise in annoyance):
No, dearest dumpling.
JOHANN (settles his wig back into its proper place):
ANNA (takes a compact out of her purse and checks
I don't wish to argue with you about this, Johann.
JOHANN (opens his arms to embrace his wife): ANNA (steps just out of his reach):
I don't have time for playing Spin the Schnitzal JOHANN (sputtering and boxing the air with his fists):
How could this be allowed to happen. ANNA (takes her husband's hand):
Darling, we'll have to make the best of this situation. JOHANN (pulls his hand away and groans):
That simpering, royal ass-kisser was always a thorn in my side.
I've heard rumors that Handel plans to enter the competition JOHANN (grabbing his wife's arm):
Think hard, Anna, this is very important.
ANNA (eyes glistening with excitement): "I do, Johann." (pauses for effect) Eve says its a stunning choral piece George made famous on the earth plane... (taps her upper lip trying to recall its name)
Ah, yes, now I remember...catchy title... Here Comes the Son. FADE OUT
My first attempt at this genre, so all suggestions are welcomed!
