INTRO
JAKE: Hey, you’re watching Jake and Amir.
AMIR: Merry Christmas!
JAKE: Really late.
AMIR: And a happy New Year, I was gonna say.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
JAKE: Wow.
[AMIR exhales a chuckle.]
JAKE: Where have you been for 8 months?
AMIR: I honestly don’t remember.
JAKE: You browned out.
AMIR: I think so.
JAKE: Wow, very cool.
[AMIR laughs.]
JAKE: Um, I guess happy 40th. Uh—
[AMIR gets a text and picks up his phone to check the message.]
JAKE: —did you do anything fun or interesting for the ol’—
AMIR: [in serious disbelief] No. No.
JAKE: No, you didn’t do anything fun, or—
AMIR: No…
[AMIR puts a hand to his head and exhales in stressed shock.]
JAKE: Is everything okay? What text did you just get?
AMIR: [stressed] It starts: ‘surprise! You have BEEN!’ [half-sob] And it just gets worse from there!
JAKE: What does it say?
AMIR: ‘You have been smacked by the Christmas Cock Monster!’
[AMIR turns his phone around to reveal the text.]
JAKE: It’s February.
AMIR: [beginning to sob] Ugh! ‘Right in your face, thwack! There’s just one rule: you can’t cock slap someone who’s already cock slapped you!’
JAKE: Alright, you’re not smart enough to have a panic attack.
AMIR: [starting to choke and breathe heavily, placing his hand on his neck] Try to cock sl... my fucking throat is closing!
JAKE: You’re choking yourself!
AMIR: I’ve already— I’ve already smacked you— [releases his hand from his throat]
JAKE: See? Better.
AMIR: —in your face [nods] yeah—
JAKE: Right? Okay.
AMIR: [continuing to read] ‘I’ve already smacked you in your face so you can’t cock slap me. Good luck.’ I’m DEAD!
JAKE: It’s just a chain text, alright? A really immature chain text!
AMIR: Yeah, if it’s a chain text then why does it say ‘pass the Christmas Cock Monster to 10 of your tightest bros to give them big cock and massive gains in this 2023’?!
JAKE: BECAUSE THAT’S HOW CHAIN TEXTS WORK! That’s exactly how a chain text would work!
AMIR: [crying] WHY???
JAKE: You know, the way you’re behaving is way more embarrassing than actually receiving that text.
AMIR: Forget this. Run away with me. Choose a fucking country in South America and let’s move there, away from all this, away from the fucking Cock Monster! He won’t find us there!
JAKE: Who even sent that to you? Alright, give me your phone.
[AMIR throws his phone over JAKE’s shoulder. It lands behind him.]
JAKE: W... What is that?
AMIR: [rubbing his eyes] Oh my god, read it and weep.
JAKE: [reading from AMIR’s phone] This text is from 45212. I mean, how is that even—
AMIR: It’s a fucking autogenerated bot that I trolled after donating to a local election!
JAKE: Marjorie Taylor Greene’s. Nice. You know what? Maybe you should run away.
AMIR: Why? So then the Cock Monster just wins? Oh, that would be real nice.
JAKE: Okay, great. Then text 10 friends. Okay?
[JAKE tosses the phone back at AMIR but it hits his chest and falls to the floor.]
AMIR: [sarcastically] That’s brilliant! Text 10 friends. Why didn’t I think of that?
JAKE: I don’t know.
AMIR: Oh, wait, it’s because I only have 3 friends. You, Parm, and 911.
JAKE: Who cares?! What even happens if you don’t text the Cock Monster to 10 people?
AMIR: He will call me and he will kill you.
JAKE: The Christmas Cock Monster. Calls you and kills ME.
[AMIR’s phone begins to ring. He looks at the caller ID.]
AMIR: NO!
JAKE: Yeah, right.
AMIR: No fucking way, man.
[AMIR turns the phone around to show JAKE. The call is from the Cock Monster.]
JAKE: [in terror] Don’t pick it up.
AMIR: [shaking his head] I need to.
JAKE: Don’t pick it up.
AMIR: [against his will] I—
JAKE: Don’t fucking answer it!
[AMIR answers the phone.]
COCK MONSTER: Ho, ho...
AMIR: [overlapping] NOOOOOOOO!!!
JAKE: [overlapping] NOOOOOOOO!!!
THE END
