Unprepared Fishermen II
Skit: Unprepared Fishermen II
[Bob and Sally walk in. Bob is carrying the same fishing rod he had yesterday, and a tackle box. (Inside the tackle box is a small retractable fishing rod, not revealed, but no lures or bait.) Sally has a bucket of bait.] | |
Sally: | I'm so excited, I'm finally ready to fish! I have my fishing license, and bait, and I finally got you to the lake where there are fish! This is my favorite spot. It's nice and shady, and there are usually lots of fish. |
[Bob starts preparing his rod. Sally grabs something out of the bait bucket and dunks it in the water, with her hand.] | |
Bob: | Sally, what are you doing? |
Sally: | Isn't it obvious? I'm fishing! |
Bob: | Where's your fishing rod? |
Sally: | A fishing rod? What do I need that for? I have bait! |
Bob: | So how are you planning to real in the fish when they start biting? |
[Sally suddenly looks alarmed and jerks her hand away from the water.] | |
Sally: | Biting! Fish bite? Doesn't that hurt? |
Bob: | Well, you're not supposed to put your fingers in the water for the fish to bite. You're supposed to use a fishing rod, with a line, and a hook. You dip the line in the water, and you hold onto the rod, like this [demonstrates]. When the fish bites the hook on the end of the line, you reel it in. |
Sally: | Oh. I don't have a rod! |
Bob: | Wait, I think I have a spare rod in my tackle box. |
[Bob rummages around in the box for a moment , pulls out the retractable rod, extends it, and hands it to Sally.] | |
Sally: | Oh, great! Thanks! |
