• INT. KITCHEN-DAY


• A blender blends some pudding mix on a counter. A toaster toasts some bread. The refrigerator yawns.


• The refrigerator opens and closes its door.


• BLENDER
• Please stop doing that.


• The refrigerator continues opening and closing its door. The blender sighs.


• TOASTER
• What's with you?


• REFRIGERATOR
• I'm just sick of sitting here. This job is boring me to tears. All I do is cool things down.


• Toast pops up, and a plate walks in front of the toaster and lies down. The toaster catapults the toast onto the plate.


• TOASTER
• All I do is toast. So?


• REFRIGERATOR
• I'd rather be a lawnmower.


• The blender stops blending, and looks at him.


• REFRIGERATOR
• What?


• BLENDER
• There's other people who have it a lot worse than you. You can't just give up.


• REFRIGERATOR
• Yeah? Like who?


• A toilet is heard flushing off screen.


• The refrigerator lowers his eyes.


• BLENDER
• Imagine doing that all day.


• REFRIGERATOR
• Yeah, I guess I shouldn't complain.


• A man walks in and puts the pudding away. He grabs butter out of the refrigerator and butters his toast.


• He leaves with the plate of toast.


• TOASTER
• Yeah, you shouldn't complain. The poor TV has to stare out those things all day.


• REFRIGERATOR
• Yeah, we don't have it as bad as those things. They sure seem to be able to occupy their time though.


• BLENDER
• Occupy? More like waste.
