INT. KITCHEN – DAY
A well-built young black man crosses his kitchen and opens the door of a stainless steel refrigerator. He pulls out several ingredients. As he closes the door and steps away, a pale young white man in a leather jacket is revealed.
MACKLEMORE: There he is. Look at that bad man, gettin’ his smoothie on.

EXT. SWIMMING POOL – DAY
The young black man sits with his feet in the water. MACKLEMORE stands half-submerged in the water.
MACKLEMORE: Bad man, gettin’ his feet wet. Who’s that bad man gettin’ his feet wet?
MACKLEMORE: This is Russell Wilson country. [sniffs] And this…Russell Wilson air.
MACKLEMORE: You see that? [pointing] Whose bird is that?
RUSSELL WILSON: [bobbing his head] That’s Russell Wilson’s bird.
[cloud flies open]
A bolt of lightning emerges from the heavens, striking the water and electrocuting MACKLEMORE but miraculously leaving RUSSELL WILSON unharmed. MACKLEMORE’S charred corpse slides underwater, and RUSSELL WILSON cringes in terror, gazing skyward.
GOD: THE FUCK IT IS! THAT’S MY FUCKIN’ BIRD, RUSSELL.
WILSON: Oh my Lord, dear Lord, please forgive me my sin of pride.
GOD: YOU WANT TO FEEL PRIDE ABOUT SOMETHING, FEEL PRIDE ABOUT THAT SMOOTHIE. YOU MADE IT, YOU OWN IT. IT’S A GODDAMNED FINE SMOOTHIE. AND SOME TWELVE YEAR-OLD IN HONDURAS CAN FEEL PRIDE ABOUT THAT OFFICIALLY LICENSED SEAHAWKS T-SHIRT YOU’RE WEARING AVAILABLE FOR $34.99 AT NFLSHOP.COM WHERE YOU CAN GET THE LATEST OFFICIALLY LICENSED NFL GEAR. THAT’S FINE, LITTLE PABLO HAS EARNED A BIT OF PRIDE PLUS THE $0.68 PER GARMENT THE NFL SUBCONTRACTORS ARE PAYING HIM. BUT I MADE THAT BIRD. SO THAT’S MY GODDAMNED BIRD. AND THAT’S MY GODDAMNED AIR.
WILSON: [mumbling] Our father, who art in heaven…
GOD: THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU, RUSSELL? WE HAD A DEAL. I SET ‘EM UP, YOU KNOCK ‘EM DOWN. YOU REMEMBER THAT?
WILSON: …hallowed be thy name…
GOD: I SET YOU UP FOR THE GREATEST COMEBACK IN PLAYOFF HISTORY AND YOU BLEW IT!
WILSON: …thy kingdom come…
GOD: [taking a deep breath] Now listen, I’m very sorry about last year. I’ve told you that a dozen times. Belichick cut himself a little deal with an ex-staffer of mine and I got caught by surprise. That’s on me. But this year was supposed to set that right! I put all the pieces in place. I’m disappointed in you, Russell. You have forsaken me, in both thought and deed.
WILSON: My Lord…no!
GOD: That’s right Russell. I told you what would happen.

INT. HOTEL ROOM – NIGHT
A beautiful young woman paces back and forth in a lavish hotel suite. A gift basket rests on the desk, and a room service cart with numerous delicacies sits untouched just inside the door. A number of designer gowns and outfits are hanging on a rack by the closet. She appears to want for nothing, but the woman seems…unsatisfied. Suddenly, her cellphone pings.
