Man-Flu inspired

I may be delirious.

INT. OFFICE. DAY.

A MAN IS SITTING IN HIS CUBICLE, HE IS CLEARLY REALLY HOT. WE CAN SEE HIM FROM THE CHEST UP.

MAN #1
Damn! When are they gonna fix the AC. I'm roasting.

WE PAN DOWN TO REVEAL ON HIS DESK IS A ROASTING TIN WITH A CHICKEN AND POTATOES.

MAN #2 (OFF)
I know I'm sweating buckets.

WE HEAR A CLONK AND PLAN ROUND TO REVEAL A MAN SURRONDED BY SMALL RED PLASTIC BUCKETS. WE PULL BACK TO REVEAL BOTH MEN IN SHOT.

THEY BOTH NARROW THEIR EYES AND STARE AT THE CAMERA.

ENDS.

I may need to lay down some more.

I liked it as far as man 1 and the visual roasting tin. Man 2 didnt work for me though.

What a lovely pair of puns

I concur. Enjoyed it

Do people call it AC rather than Air-Con? I initially thought you meant the power supply.

Technical niggle - there is no "pan down". A pan is a side-to-side motion. A "pan" down would be a tilt.

That said, you'd be better of leaving camera directions out altogether.
