NWF # 17 Fix My Problem!

So something new this week. I am excited for this, i had this idea while in the shower today (You probably didn't need to know that part) I want to start a web series called "Fix My Problem" every episode Chuck and Carlos get letters from "viewers" asking for help with their problems, "no matter how weird they are" and then they choose one and go out and fix it. It's pretty short, but webisodes are usually between like 3-5 minutes so I think it's a good length for that, especially because a portion of it is improv. I have an idea for a few more and if I get a chance to write them this weekend I will post them. I know a lot of my film formatting is wrong, but you get the gist. If you have an idea for problems to "fix" or would like to be involved let me know. Thanks guys!!!

Fix My Problem!

INT.- Room- 2 chairs, music and the “Fix My Problem” logo appears on the screen. CHUCK and CARLOS come on and sit in the chairs, the logo disappears.

Chuck: Greetings friends, and welcome to this episode of-

Both: Fix My Problem!!

Carlos: Where you write in, and we-

Both: Fix Your Problems!

Chuck: No matter how weird they are, I'm Chuck.

Carlos: And I'm Carlos. Today's first let comes to us from Samantha Soma in San Diego, CA. She says “Dear Carlos and Chuck, I need your help, my husband claims I'm cheating on him and I say I'm not. I totally am, but I don't want him to know about it. So I need to “prove” to him that I'm not cheating. Please, Fix My Problem!”

Chuck: Well Samantha, usually we'd love to help fix your problem, but we also received this letter from Saul Soma from San Diego, CA. “Dear Chuck and Carlos, I fear that my wife Samantha is cheating on me, she is my world and it would break my heart if I knew that she actually was cheating on me. Please help me set my mind at ease about her. Please, Fix My Problem.” Well Saul, there ya go... we just-

Both: Fixed Your Problem!

Carlos: And now case today comes from Daniel Diamond in Lake Elsinore, CA. He writes, “Dear Carlos and Chuck, I have a problem with ghost in my house. They are not active enough. I really like the show ghost hunters but the ghosts in my house don't hardly do anything, can you come and upset them to make them more active?” Yes, Daniel, we will-

Both: Fix Your Problem!

EXT.-Daniel's House- Chuck and Carlos stand outside a house in Lake Elsinore, CA with DANIEL

Chuck: We are here in Lake Elsinore with Daniel Diamond, Daniel introduce yourself.

Daniel: Hi, my name is Daniel, and uh, this isn't a meth lab...

Carlos: I'm sure it's not. Now tell us about these ghosts in your house.

Daniel: Well, it's like there are ghosts in the house right, and well, like, they just aren't that active. I need them to do more stuff and be more spookier so I can go on Ghost Hunters.

Chuck: Sounds like a quite a problem to me. Here is how we will

Both: Fix Your Problem! Step One

Carlos: Set up equipment in different rooms in the house.

Both: Step two

Chuck: Make the spirits angry and active

Both: Step Three, Problem Fixed!

Daniel: That really just sounds like one step, two at the most.

INT.-House- The guys are setting up equipment. They finish and turn off all the lights of the house, a la Ghost Hunters. Then it's Chuck onscreen in night vision.

Chuck: Step one is complete. We have set up camera's in three different rooms. Now comes step two, upsetting the spirits. If I've learned anything from tv and movies it's that spirits hate three things, swearing, drugs, and pre-marital sex. In room one Carlos and I will be swearing at the ghosts to try and get them to act up. In room two our friend Chad will be smoking some marijuana, and in room three our volunteers Carla and Chase will be having pre-marital sex. (Moves camera so we can see CARLA and CHASE) Say 'Hi' guys. (Chase and Carla unenthusiastically wave, completely aware how awkward this is going to be)

The Camera cuts between the rooms, maybe each room is shown twice? It says what room number at the bottom left screen of each scene.

“Room 1: Swearing”

Carlos and Chuck sit around swearing at the ghosts calling them pussies, daring them to do stuff, maybe throwing in a couple of “Bro”s [is it funnier if everything is bleeped out?]

“Room 2: Drugs”

Chad sits on the floor and starts to smoke a bowl, coughs, starts to giggle, hears something, wonders if it's a cat, or if there is even a cat in the house. Also is pretty sure this house is also a meth lab.

“Room 3: Pre-Marital Sex”

Carla and Chase are trying to have sex, but neither of them know how to, being virgins. He is on top.

Chase: Is this right?

Carla: I don't know, I've never done this before.

Chase: Me either, I think we're supposed to be naked?

Carla: Like Completely?

Chase: I'm not sure.

Carla: How do they do it in movies?

Chase: I don't know my mom always covers my eyes during this stuff.

A GHOST appears behind them

Ghost: Seriously? Seriously? Come on guys! I've been dead for twelve years and the first couple I get to see have sex is you two freaks? Man, fuck this! My buddy Ghost Tupac haunts a whore house and is always telling me the crazy shit that goes on there, but no, when it's my turn I get this leave it to beaver mother fucker. I'm outta hear. And that's right America, Tupac's dead, leave him alone! (Disappears)

Chase: Who was that?

Carla: I dunno.

The word “FIXED” appears on the screen like a giant stamp

INT.-Room- 2 Chairs, Carlos and Chuck sit, like in the opening.

Carlos: If you want your problem fixed just email us at FixMyProb@Prob.net

Chuck: And remember

Both: WE FIX YOUR PROBLEM!

End.
