Come On Number 2

INT. - BETTING SHOP - DAY

Dave has just had a bet on the 5 dog and takes up a position by the TV to watch the race.

DAVE
Come on 5, get out and lead all the way my son.

The race begins.

DAVE
(shouting)
Go on 5 round you go, don't get bumped and you're away. Come on 5 you're in second now so chase him down, you're better then the 4 dog, pick him up son.

FX - race commentary audio

COMMENTATOR
And as they come off the final bend it's 4 from 5, 4 from 5 and the 4 dogs wins with 5 a close 2nd.

DAVE
(tearing ticket)
Useless bloody dog!

Dave goes to the toilet and sees a punter down on his knees praying.

PUNTER
Come on number 2, get a move on, please God, I need this badly or I'm in deep trouble.

Dave walks to urinal.

PUNTER
I really need this, please get out fast number 2.

FX - toilet flushing.

User vacates cubicle 2.

Punter gets up off his knees and pushes by everyone and races past locked cubicle 1 with "Out of Order" sign on the door and into cubicle 2.

FX - flies unzipping, sound of seat crashing and spluttering noises as he pebble dashes the toilet pan.

PUNTER
Oh thank you God, thank you, thank you, thank you.

i thought this was good, i was expecting it to be something like it turned out to be, but my main thought was he was constipated and he was praying that he could have a number two, i did like this sketch, it isn't to long and gets to the punch quickly well done.

Yes - good one. I got to it just before the punch line.
