Someone called KATY about to enjoy her soup. She loves soup. KATY: I love soup! Just as she's about to have some soup, DEATH bursts in. DEATH: I HAVE- KATY: AAAAH! DEATH: AAAAH! KATY: AAAAH! DEATH: (Regains composure) I HAVE COME FOR YOU, MORTAL. Okay, enough chit-chat. (checks clipboard) If we could just do this quickly... KATY: Who are you? DEATH: I am Death! One of the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. KATY: Horse? DEATH: ...No, actually. I ride a motorcycle. (Pause.) I'm cool! KATY: Errr... DEATH: Don't start. You're Katy Wilson, yes? KATY: Yeah. DEATH: Is that Katy with a "y" or Katy with an "ie"? KATY: A "y"? DEATH: Cool. (making notes) You know what the hardest part of my job is? People who can't spell their names. Like “Steven” with a v instead of a ph. Or “Suzanne” instead of just “Susan”. One time I made a typo and got this kid called Suzannah at her birthday party. Boy, was my face red! (laughs) Stupid bitch. KATY: Excuse me… DEATH: I didn't mean you! KATY: No I wanted to know... Am I dead? DEATH: Yes. KATY: But how...? DEATH: That soup. Food poisoning. KATY: But I haven't had it yet. DEATH: Yes you did! You ate at six, an hour ago. KATY: It's six now! DEATH: (checks his watch) Look mate, there's no point in playing silly buggers with me. See, seven! KATY: Are you sure? It was Daylight Savings last night... DEATH: … Oh, crap! .. D- ..Do you want some soup?
