Script: The Chicken Dance

INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – DAY

Jerry and George are sitting at the kitchen table, eating cereal.

Jerry: You know, George, I can’t believe you’re still eating that same cereal.

George: (munching) What’s wrong with it? It’s reliable. No surprises.

Jerry: Kind of like your dating life.

George gives Jerry a death stare.

George: Hey, speaking of surprises, did you hear what Kramer’s up to now?

Jerry: (rolling his eyes) No, what’s he done now?

George: He got himself a drone!

Jerry: A drone? What’s he planning to do with that?

George: He lost his pet chickens in Central Park last week. Claims they wandered off while he was teaching them chess.

Jerry: Chickens playing chess?

George: Yeah, well, you know Kramer. He thinks he can teach them anything.

EXT. CENTRAL PARK – DAY

Kramer is fumbling with a drone remote, a determined look on his face. He’s watching the live feed from the drone’s camera on his phone.

Kramer: (muttering) Alright, chickens, time to come home.

The drone takes off with a loud whirring sound and zooms off into the park. People are staring at him as he excitedly shouts commands to the drone.

Kramer: (yelling at the drone) Left, left! No, my left! Ah, forget it, just go straight!

The drone flies erratically, causing a commotion as it nearly crashes into a hot dog vendor’s cart.

INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – DAY

Jerry and George are watching a live feed from Kramer’s drone on George’s phone, chuckling.

George: (laughing) Look at him go! This is gonna be a disaster.

Jerry: He’s turning Central Park into a war zone.

Elaine bursts in, looking elated.

Elaine: Guess what, guys?! My TikTok video went viral!

Jerry: (raising an eyebrow) Your TikTok video? Doing what?

Elaine: (excitedly) I posted a video of me dancing! It’s got thousands of views and likes!

George: (smirking) Thousands, huh? Are you doing the thing with the kicks and thumbs?

Elaine: (ignoring George) Yes! I knew my moves were gold!

Jerry: (skeptical) Gold or just… bizarre?

Elaine: (playfully) Oh, come on, Jerry! You’re just jealous of my dance moves.

Elaine shows Jerry and George the TikTok video on her phone. Her dance moves are indeed eccentric and unorthodox, to say the least.

Jerry: (holding back laughter) Elaine, those moves… they’re like something out of a sci-fi movie.

George: (chuckling) Maybe you’ve managed to create a whole new dance genre.

Elaine: (proudly) That’s the idea! I’m a trendsetter, you know.

INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

Kramer bursts into Jerry’s apartment, panting and disheveled.

Kramer: (excitedly) Jerry, George, you won’t believe what happened! I found my chickens!

Jerry: (curious) You did? How?

Kramer: (grinning) My drone, buddy! Turns out they were hanging out near the Shakespeare Garden.

George: (raising an eyebrow) Teaching Hamlet to chickens now?

Kramer: Nah, they were just enjoying the scenery. Anyway, I brought ’em back home.

Jerry: (sarcastically) Well, I’m glad your drone warfare in the park had a happy ending.

Elaine: Kramer, did you hear my TikTok dance video went viral?

Kramer: That seems remarkable. (scratches his head) Maybe I have some good ideas for your next video?

Jerry: (under his breathe) Oh here we go…

Elaine: (intrigued) I do need to create a follow-up video for my fans. What do you got?

Kramer: My chickens seemed to be very popular in Central Park. How about dancing with my chickens in the great outdoors while I shot it with my drone? A drone chicken dance! It’s gonna be huge!

Elaine: (hesitant) Well, I don’t know…

Jerry: (encouraging) Come on, Elaine, it’s a golden opportunity to showcase your unique moves.

Elaine: (reluctant) Fine, fine. I’ll do it.

EXT. CENTRAL PARK – DAY

Elaine stands awkwardly in the middle of Central Park, surrounded by chickens. Kramer’s drone hovers above her, capturing the spectacle.

Kramer: (excitedly) Alright, Elaine, let loose with those moves!

Elaine starts dancing with kicks and arms flailing. The chickens look utterly confused, some have taken to running away. Passersby stop and stare, some filming the scene on their phones.

Kramer: Go Elaine! You’re dancing, you’re dancing…

INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – NIGHT

Jerry, George, and Kramer are watching the viral TikTok video of Elaine dancing among the chickens, laughing hysterically.

George: (chuckling) I told you, Jerry. Bizarre equals viral these days.

Jerry: (grinning) Looks like Elaine has inadvertently become the queen of a weird new chicken dance.

INT. JERRY’S APARTMENT – DAY

Elaine enters the apartment, visibly deflated.

Elaine: (disheartened) Guys, the comments on my video… They’re all making fun of me! They’re saying I dance like an alien octopus.

Kramer: (trying to console her) Hey, don’t let ’em get you down, Elaine. You’re a trendsetter, remember?

George: (smirking) Yeah, who else can claim to have danced with chickens in Central Park?

Jerry: (patting Elaine’s shoulder) Don’t worry, you’re just ahead of your time.

Kramer: You know, it’s like that saying, “The early bird gets the worm.”

Jerry: (raising an eyebrow) What does that have to do with anything?

Kramer: (grinning) Well, being the first. Elaine and my chickens were the first to dance together in Central Park, and look how well that turned out.

Elaine: (muttering) Yeah, well, nobody likes worms anyway.
