Devils Delight
Devil’s Delight is a humorous look at the day in the life of a couple of demons. Everything is going well for Slime and Grime until they bite off more than they can chew. In style and theme, this script is reminiscent of C. S. Lewis’ book The Screwtape Letters.
Script Sample...
Slime No! YOU did it.
Grime I didn’t, I tell you. It was YOU!
Slime Oh, forget it. Besides, we’re beginning to sound like a couple of humans!
Grime Ha, ha. Yeah. Better not get like them. They’re REAL bad.
Slime I reckon. So tell me, what’s your next assignment?
Grime I’m going up.
Slime Wow! Really? You’ve actually been given Someone? But how?
Grime They don’t call me “dirtball” for nothing.
Slime But what did you do? Like how could I get assigned up there?
Grime Well, I don’t want to give away trade secrets or anything, but you’re a bad friend, and I hate you a lot, so I’ll tell you. You let the human fall into their own trap, and make sure that a senior devil sees it.
Slime (Pause) I don’t get it.
Grime Well. . .do you want to come for a quick trip, and I’ll demonstrate?
Slime Sure. What up? (Points up)
Grime Come on, no need to pack. (Exits)
Slime But what if. . .oh, Hell! (Follows) Wait for me, you demon.
Grime (Re entering) Slime, you there? Where is he?
Slime (Entering, whispering) Grime! Grime! Where are you??
Grime Boo! Ha, ha. Relax, they can’t see or hear you. Now, lesson one, finding the right person. It’s no good picking a hard subject. You want to make yourself look good, right? So choose an easy one to start with. Right, in here.
Slime In CHURCH??! You can’t be serious. I’m not going in there. Too dangerous.
Grime I’m not going in. What do you take me for, and idiot? We’ll look through the window.
Slime I thought we were looking for an easy target.
Grime We are.
Slime A Christian is an easy target? Since when?
Grime Listen, idiot. If you want to get the good assignments, then you have to take risks.
