Announcer: They annoy you during
dinnertime. They ask you to take stupid surveys. They are… “The Telemarketers”!
Jane Janeson: Tom, caller ID is
really getting the best of us.
Tom Fatty: Jane, I know. Let’s
call another home. (dials phone) This is Tom Fatty of the… international health
club. You’re too fat, so lose some weight.
Jane Janeson: Ha-ha-ha-ha! Let
me try one. (dials phone) This is Jane Janeson of the local beauty salon in the
town you’re in, saying get a manicure! Your nails stink!
Tom Fatty: Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Good
one! Let’s hurry up and make some more insults before the boss comes.
Jane Janeson: Oh, Brad Boss? He
thinks he’s so tough, but he isn’t.
Brad Boss: Jane Janeson, what did
you say about me?
Jane Janeson: Oh, nothing. Just that you’re not really as tough as you
think.
Brad Boss: Really? Then watch me
make this phone call. (dials phone) Take this survey or I’ll punch your teeth
out!
Voice on phone: Uh-uh-uh… okay!
Brad Boss: Watch a professional.
Back to work.
Jane Janeson: I am a
professional, loser.
Tom Fatty: Hey, we’re all losers here.
Sam Smith: Well, not me. I always
get the foolish people. I’m so good at tricking them into paying us. They think
they’re paying me taxes.
Jane Janeson: I hate taxes. We
work hard for money. We shouldn’t give it up to the government.
Sam Smith: I give my money to my
family. They’re like my government. “Blah blah blah. Where’s my allowance? I’m
going on strike if you don’t give me a raise! I’m a brat!”
Tom Fatty: Then why don’t we play a trick on them? Let’s trick your wife
and kids.
Sam Smith: Hmm, that’s a good
idea. I’ll get my money back.
Brad Boss: What are you doing?
Sam Smith: Oh, why did you have to just surprise me like that?
Brad Boss: I like to watch what
people do.
Sam Smith: Like taking their
clothes off.
Brad Boss: Don’t you… okay, Tom,
I’d like you to offer this Hallmark dealer a box of rare Beanie Babies but send
her nothing.
Tom Fatty: I’ll do that if I can
get up. (grunts while trying to get up) Oh, man, I shouldn’t have eaten so many
McGriddles.
Brad Boss: I hate doing this.
(pulls Tom off of chair) Okay, now off we go.
Jane Janeson: Sam, what’s your
phone number? (Sam whispers in Jane’s ear) Thank you. (dials phone)
(open on Sam Smith’s house, where the wife is
watching a soap opera)
Mrs. Smith: Who’s calling?
Jane Janeson: This is Miss… Jones, here to tell you that you haven’t
paid a bill for the health program that you go to to lose all that weight
you’ve got in your belly.
Mrs. Smith: Bally?
Jane Janeson: Exactly.
Mrs. Smith: Thank you for reminding
me. Where should I send?
Jane Janeson: 112 Market Avenue.
Mrs. Smith: Thank you. (hangs up)
(back to office)
Jane Janeson: Fooled her! (giggles with Sam) Now let’s call… the
president.
Sam Smith: Call George W. Bush?
Even I haven’t done that.
Jane Janeson: It’s a good scam.
Sam Smith: No. That’s totally
unpatriotic.
Jane Janeson: Wow, you sure
know America. Now let’s do it.
Sam Smith: Whatever. You have his
number?
Jane Janeson: I have the number of the White House, but I can call for
him. (dials phone) Um, can I speak to a Mr. Bush? First name George? He’s at a
meeting? It’s an emergency call. Tell him to leave then! What am I, the meeting
man? Okay, thanks.
(open on Bush’s office)
George W. Bush: Hello?
Sam Smith: This is the head of the International Revenue Service.
George W. Bush: But I’m the
president. I get to tell who does and doesn’t pay taxes, and I sure as heck
ain’t paying no taxes. I learned that back in Texas.
Sam Smith: Yeah, but you’re in
Washington now, buddy. You owe me $1 million.
George W. Bush: $1 million? Buddy?
Now, you’re saying I should send to 112 Market Avenue because sending to the
IRS is a waste of stamps?
Sam Smith: That’s not an opinion, that’s a fact.
George W. Bush: Okay, thank you.
(hangs up phone) Crazy…
(back to office)
Sam Smith: Fooled the president! (laughs with Jane)
Announcer: On the next episode of “The
Telemarketers”…
