EXT. HOME – NIGHT
Worried Fanbase welcomes their estranged child, Matchday, home from a long absence.
Worried Fanbase
Oh, now you’re coming home? After all this time?
FORTY-NINE DAYS and now this.
You didn’t call, you didn’t write–you could have been dead…
(Worried fanbase holds back their tears, but one loud sob breaks through)
(beat)
…You know what, Matchday, just come inside. There’s not enough time in this world to hold grudges. But don’t you dare turn on that television, we’re spending some quality time together this instant.
THE END
I’m thinking Pangop plays Matchday, and Jerry plays Worried Fanbase.
