READING THE TEA LEAVES

Here's a little something that I prepared earlier.

INT. DAY.

WOMAN SITS IN A DARKENED ROOM. SHE IS HAVING A READING FROM A PSYCHIC WHO READS THE TEA LEAVES.

WOMAN. Thanks you, Madam Zara, you have been a tremendous help to me over the last few months of my marriage break up.

MADAM ZARA. (in a heavy Russian accent) It has been a pleasure.

WOMAN. So, you are going back to see your family in Russia?

MADAM ZARA. Yes, it has been so long and really don’t like flying.

WOMAN. Well, here’s a little something that I bought for you to read on the plane.

WOMAN PULLS OUT A PACKET OF TEA FROM HER BAG.

Boom, boom! It made me laugh, anyway!!!

Even though i shouldn't...i laughed! haha

Short gag, in the boom boom style but nothing wrong with that at all.

I love a happy medium.

Yes - short & sweet
