Set: the ship R/V Melville
Actor: Trump
Props: Silk ribbon, spoon

Trump has invited himself to a ribbon cutting ceremony for the re-opening of the research vessel after a major refurbishment. He is standing at port where the ship is docked, in front of the ship. He walks up to the Silk Ribbon and is given a Spoon to cut it. Furiously he demands scissors. The ship captain says “You must MAKE AN APPOINTMENT to borrow the ship scissors” giving Trump a sign-up sheet. Trump throws aside the sheet, takes out his phone and tweets about how fake the ship is.

Juventas, the Roman goddess of youth, (yu) is outside my -e set. Because of the age mortality rates around coronavirus, many older people are wanting to be young again. They have heard Juventas can make them young again if they make an offering of Silk(纟) and a spoon (勺). Everybody is lined up holding their silk and spoons, but there's too many people in one place! Everybody has to start making appointments for their offerings to encourage social distancing and help prevent transmission.

Location: Father-in-law Ed's house [outside the entrance]
Actor: Randy "Macho Man" Savage
Props: Silk Dress and Spoon

I am at my father-in-law's house where we are shooting a telethon raising awareness for colon health. The Macho Man and his sidekick Miss Elizabeth are there and operators are standing by to assist people in making appointments with their doctors for a check up. There is a large board in the background that reads "Appointments Made" and the numbers are continuously added as people call in. Macho Man is standing with Elizabeth and she is wearing a red silk dress and holding up a spoon where she delivers a message to the audience on the importance of eating a bowl of high fiber cereal to maintain your colon health. At the end of their message, the Macho Man encourages all viewers to call in and, for every appointment made through the telethon, a donation is made to colon cancer research.
