Scene
The men in shades are standing centre stage. And the instructor enters.

Whoever is leading the service: And our drama today is Men In Black!

B: Breach of copy right

Whoever is leading service: The drama today is Men In ……er…. A non-descript dark colour often worn at funerals

Instructor: Welcome to our top secret (shhhhh) training facility numbers 1-4. We are here today to tell you about possibly the greatest threat to our organisation you’ll ever face. This gentlemen is your enemy (switch on OHP)

No. 1: There’s nothing there boss.

Instructor: That’s where you’re wrong number 1 you see inside this square and indeed everywhere is the biggest threat to our organisation. Your mission should you choose to accept it

B: Breach of copy right

Instructor: Your mission if you would like to take part in it is to defeat this thing to ensure the eventual victory of our organisation.

No.2: So how do we know this thing is there?

Instructor: Although we cannot see it, it leaves a long trail of clues to its existence. There is evidence that it is an immensely strong force. We have seen it tear down a whole city, just by getting it’s followers to play musical instruments.

No.3: Was it as bad as the music group here!?

Instructor: Irrelevant number 3, Cough cough !!!!! This thing is still at large and we have evidence to suggest that it has the ability, not only to raise people from the dead but also can see and know everything, even what we are saying or thinking now

(No. 1 and 3 look embarrassed)

No.2: So how do we fight this thing if we can’t see it then boss.

Instructor: As far as we can see it has only one main area that we can attack

No.4: what’s that then boss?

Instructor: It has a massive sense of compassion and love for humans. If we can turn them away from him we can get him off our backs.

No.1: So how do we do that.

Instructor: We use our most powerful weapon. It’s called Temptation

(song: Temptation)

No.2: So how does this weapon work then?

Instructor: We need to convince these humans that there is a better way than following it. So go on then GET OUT!!!!!

(exit all)

(enter nos 1-4 and instructor

Instructor: Status report no.1

No.1: Everything is going well sir. Those humans are really easy to corrupt.

Instructor: Good, good. No. 2 anything to report.

No.2: The force is weak within them.

B: Break of copy right!

No.2: The force is slightly less strong that a not very strong thing with them

No.3: Every single on of them has turned away from it

Instructor: Excellent!!!!!! (evil laugh)

(No.4 does evil laugh)

Instructor: I have the monopoly on evil laughs number 4

No.4: Sir

Instructor: Carry on and make sure none of the weak need curs turn.

(All exit)

(Jesus is lies in centre stage)

Instructor: (offstage) Well done lads mission accomplished we have defeated it and captured its most powerful weapon. This is it in human form. This is victory for the forces of The Society of American Trans- Atlantic neutralisation unit….a.k.a. SATAN

(Jesus starts to arise)

Instructor: (enters with nos 1-4) WHAT!!!!!!! What’s going on!!! Kill him…. Shoot it

(No.1-4 get out water guns)

No.4: Take that

B: Take That is a regestered trade

no.4: Take this!

Jesus: It’s no use!

(Nos 1-4 run into audience squirting water guns)

OHP: Dove + text saying this is my son with whom I am well pleased

Jesus: In his great mercy, my Father has given you new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of me from the dead

(Exit Jesus. Enter instructor and no.1)

Instructor: The writers of this sketch wish to assure you that they are not in support of physical violence in anyway shape or form we apologise for any senseless violence and hurt that it may have caused. We give you our apologies but there’s a time in your life when you’ve got to say Morals! Who gives a heck!

No.1: But no seriously it was to illustrate a serious point about Jesus defeating the devil by dying and giving his life for our sins to save us from temptation. Also we wish to assure you that the people in this drama were NOT copied off MEN IN a non discript colour that has a dark nature and is often worn at funerals. Thank you and good night!
