No More Popcorn
[ Drumroll ]

Hank: (clears throat) As President of Movie Night, I want to welcome you to a perfect evening of entertainment and wonder.

Tom: (laughs) All right!

Ginger: I can't believe no one voted for me to be President of Movie Night.

Tom: Come on, picking Hank was a no-brainer. He's the master of movies. He'll get every little detail right.

Hank: Yup, I got every little detail right! We'll start at eight o'clock sharp, the best time for movie viewing. ( Points to the clock ) I've lowered the lights to 37%, the perfect dimness for optimal screen focus. And for the ultimate movie snack we have...

( He grabs and opens the pot, but it's empty. )

Hank: ( gasps ) Oh, no, no! No, I'm a failure.

Angela: Wait, is something wrong ?

Hank: Aw ! We're out of popcorn. ( he turns the pot to the side and drops a popcorn ) Movie Night is ruined. No! (he goes away)

he goes away)

Ginger: Ha ! Now, I get to be president of-- Aw man, he took the remote.

Growing Your Own Corn
( The next morning )

Angela: Whoa! Who's this hard-working farmer and what did you do it Hank?

Hank: Angela, the tragic events of last night really opened my eyes. If we can run out of popcorn once, we can run out of popcorn again! So, I'm growing my own corn.

Angela: Oh ! That will be so nice to have at Movie Night - in a few months.

Hank: A few months? No way! These will be fully grown by tomorrow.

Angela: But that's not how farming works. Unless you're planning to--

Ben: I found it! If you need instant super-growing results nothing like my experimental fertilizer, SuperGrow.

Hank: Great! Science me up, Ben!

Angela: No! Put that away! Plants should only be grown with natural things, like sun and dirt and smiles. Like this!

( She lies on the floor and smiles at the plant, with Ben and Hank watching behind her )

Ben: That's not doing anything.

Angela: Wait for it! (smiles even harder)

Ben: Hank, use the SuperGrow.
