Internet Security

I was a bit late for the comp but I wrote one I may as well post it.

INT. HOUSE. DAY.

A Man is sitting infront of his PC his wife’s looking over his shoulder.

WIFE:
Honey, what are you doing?

HUSBAND:
Online shopping, I’m getting myself a new set of Golf clubs.

WIFE:
Well be careful I keep hearing about online fraud and people using your account, it worries me.

HUSBAND:
Don’t worry, I have loads of protection on this computer, it’s a secured site, there is no way they could actually access this account, I've thought this through dear.

WIFE:
Ok! I take your word for it, I’m off to my mothers, and I’ll be back around two.

HUSBAND:
Ok sweetheart, have fun! (Whisper) If that’s possible.

The WIFE walks out of the door, a few seconds later, 2 men walk in through the back door wearing all black, before he can do anything they smack him unconscious, one of them moves him out of the chair and takes his seat.

THIEF:
(Talking to the thief next to him) Can’t believe that prat left his door unlocked, hey Eddy, you want some Golf clubs?

END.

Haha, I like it.

It's a nice idea but I think the thief could have a funnier line at the end because they explain what should appear obvious anyway. ie First thief "right empty his bank account first or go mad with his credit card?", 2nd thief "Actually could I check my email first?" - just a thought

I like it Alan, but I feel it would take from the idea that he's trying to convince his wife that his shopping account is safe from people trying to use it.

Yup, I see what you mean. I'm trying to squeeze too much out of it and they could just have easily broken in and that wouldn't have been his fault. My error!

Hi paul,

Nice sketch, how about ending it with the man waking up and a security gaurd with a Norton or MaCafee Sercurity badge, standing over him with the baddies tied up.

Saying something like "Good job you got them free updates son."

Maybe the wife should knock him out and start using his account.

I think a better joke would be that the man is so concerned about internet security that he neglects home security. While he's secure shopping online a couple of thieves are upstairs emptying out his wives jewellery.

A slight problem with the original sketch is that unless the filming is very clear about who walks through which door, it is going to look like his wife's fault that the door is unlocked, not his.

Good idea, and lots of interesting suggestions from others. I like Alan's, but yes, it is probably moving away from the theme. The same goes for the wife knocking him out.
