WWJB

InT. dining room, easter morning

Chandra and Jason are finishing up breakfast, and doing their normal Sunday routine. They drift in and out of conversation, turning back & forth between each other, the newspaper, and their computers.

Chandra

I'm going to ask you again-- brownies or apple crisp?

Jason

Huh?

CHANDRA

Should we bring brownies or apple crisp to my parents?

JASON

I don't know-- what would Jesus bake?

CHANDRA

(Already annoyed)

Jason!

JASON

Well? What would he make? I don't think they had chocolate back then.

CHANDRA

I don't think they had apples there, either.

JASON

Dates! I know they had dates! We could make date bars.

(a beat)

Of course, I don't think they had orange wedgies then, either.

CHANDRA

I could make the kind without the wedgies.

JASON

(Gasps, horrified)

Sacrilege!

CHANDRA

(a long, exasperated beat)

Okay, so brownies or apple crisp?
