MS The scene starts with a speeding incoming news. with that dinging noise. The Newscaster is sitting at a desk with a folded piece of paper. He is holding it like a book. NEWSCASTER: Evening Ladies and Gents! welcome to The News. The Newscasters eyes widen NEWSCASTER: A plague has broken out! And there is no cure. An image of a clowns fades in on the left corner of screen. NEWSCASTER: Clowns Disease A second image of a regular looking man is put next to the image of the clown. a before and after image. NEWSCASTER: TURNING, PURE, INNOCENT MEN, INTO CLOWNS. NOW BEFORE WE GO INTO TOO MUCH DETAIL, LETS GO BACK TO WHERE IT ALL STARTED. TAKE IT PETE! WHIP PAN: FBS Pete is a young person with a small tuff of brown hair and glasses and tan skin. PETE: Lets go back six months ago. In South Carolina, Circus Clown named "Well Willy" had a bad cold. An image of a clown holding a pie pops up. PETE: During his flu season he still had to work. his clown gloves got mixed with the circus' ring master's gloves The image of the clown is replaced with an image of the Ring Master holding a whip. He is wearing a top hat. has beige skin and has a black mustache. PETE: At first nothing was wrong but after two weeks symptoms started to show. The image of the Ring Master goes from beige skin to white skin with red lips and a black mustache to a green mustache. His top hat is now purple and orange. PETE: From him, Clowns Disease spread, to his wife, Wife's friend, Friends son, Son's friend, Friends family, ETC. An image fills the screen of just a lot of clowns standing round each other. then cut back to Pete with a map showing the spread of the disease. His hair is now slightly blue and his skin is slightly paler PETE: Over time, Clowns Disease spread, quite farther than just the Carolina area WHIP PAN: NEWSCASTER: Thanks Pete, Lets get some public opinions on this subject.
