Monkey Business

TWO MONKEYS ARE SAT IN A FENCED ENCLOSURE AT THE ZOO. ONE LOOKS DEPRESSED

MONKEY 1:
What's the matter, mate?

MONKEY 2:
Oh, nothing.

MONKEY 1:
Go on, you can tell me; I'm your best mate!

MONKEY 2:
It's just - it's just I feel like I'm never respected, y'know? Locked away in a cage for people to stare at, when I'm supposed to be one of the most intelligent creatures on the planet...

MONKEY 1:
It's alright mate, we all go through some tough times, feel a little down; you'll soon cheer up.

MONKEY 2:
I guess so.

MONKEY 1:
I know what'll put a smile on your face...

MONKEY 2:
What?

MONKEY 1:
Let's throw poo at children!

CUT TO:

A TEACHER IS TALKING TO HER PUPILS OUTSIDE THE MONKEY ENCLOSURE

TEACHER:
And here we have one of the most intelligent creatures on the planet; the monkey.

THE TEACHER GETS HIT ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH A BIG DOLLOP OF POO

END

This doesn't really work for me, andyroo. I think if the monkeys discussed something scientific which ended up as 'throwing poo at kids', it might be funnier.

Dan

Take Dan's advice. This could be good if re-written.

It's a very strong idea but it feels like you're not having enough fun with it. Make the monkeys chat about monkey issues like professors or lads or something.

I tried to chat that Sheryl up last night, showed her my big red arse and howled.

M2
Ooh classy!
