Long Grass

EXT. DAY. CLOSE UP OF COUPLE IN LONG GRASS.

MAN: This lawn ain't big enough for the two of us...

WOMAN: Actually, It's a field... Your botanical failings will come back to haunt you, if I had my way, in the form of a phantom plant stalker.

MAN: What the hells that?

WOMAN: It's a kind of ghostly plant, on the large side, that stalks you. It doesn't assault you or anything, it's just slightly intimidating.

MAN: Yeah whatever... This field ain't big enough for the two of us.

WOMAN: Hmmm... It's more like a meadow. It's definitely not a lawn what with three feet long grass.

MAN: Look... the point is I want you to move out.. or in is that? Anyway, I need space. I find this field lifestyle very suffocating.

WOMAN: You'd have no one to talk to apart from Paul the lonesome spider.

MAN: Cider... I would talk to it.

WOMAN: I knew it, I knew something was up. You're on the drink again. That's why you haven't cut our lawn in six months and we got evicted by welfare.

MAN: At least we didn't have to move our stuff far.

REVEAL SHOWS COUPLE ARE OUTSIDE A HOUSE WITH VERY LONG GRASS THAT IS PEPPERED WITH FLATSCREEN TV'S, WARDROBES AND A MATTRESS.

Not funny imo.

No problem. Thanks Stylee.
