Phil & Monique: Bad Touchscreens (MAAM Edition)

FADE IN:

INT. MID-ATLANTIC ASSOCIATION OF MUSEUMS ANNUAL CONFERENCE - COFFEE BAR - DAY

Standing at a coffee bar are MONIQUE, exhibition developer wise beyond her years, and PHIL, anxious independent museum consultant.

PHIL: My client is crazy!

MONIQUE: Your donut looks good.

PHIL: They have an awful touchscreen idea!

MONIQUE: Mm. Worse than some I’ve heard?

PHIL: Way worse, I know it!

MONIQUE: No way. It can’t be worse than “Touch the screen to see the content that didn’t make it into the exhibit”.

PHIL: Worse.

MONIQUE: Huh. OK, it can’t be worse than “Touch the screen to give us exhibition ideas”.

PHIL: Worse.

MONIQUE: Damn. OK, worse than “Touch the screen to try the professional database our curators use”?

PHIL: Whoa. That’s … crazy. But mine's still worse.

MONIQUE: Pfft. I give up. What is it?

PHIL: “Touch the screen to select a video message from each donor.”

MONIQUE: …

PHIL: …

MONIQUE: Yeah, you win.

PHIL: I told you!

MONIQUE: Are you eating that donut?

FADE OUT.
