Topic: Rance & Rancette
RANCE: Hey, Rancette. I'm going to a funeral.
RANCETTE: Oh, I'm sorry. Who died? Anyone close to you?
RANCE: Yeah, family.
RANCETTE: I'm sorry.
RANCE: It's ok. She was older. We knew she was going to pass away soon.
RANCETTE: Still it hurts.
RANCE: Listen, would you like to go to the reception?
RANCETTE: But, I mean, this is a personal affair.
RANCE: Well, the funeral reception's for Janet Leigh.
RANCETTE: WHAT!? You're related to Janet Leigh!?
RANCE: Yes.
RANCETTE: How?
RANCE: Well, why don't you come and find out?

Setting: funeral reception.
Everyone is dressed in black, from head to toe. Rancette sees Jamie Lee Curtis from a distance. She also sees several people that she does not recognize. She wanders to the food table and picks out fruit and some little sandwiches.
Jamie Lee Curtis walks up to a podium.
JAMIE: Everybody. I would like to say a few words. She was the greatest mom. (starts crying) I can't go on!
KELLY: As Janet's other daughter, I would like to take over for Jamie. I want this to be a very special day and for everyone to think of their best memory of our mom.
Kelly and Jamie hug. Everyone applauds.
OLD AUNT (to Rancette): I don't recognize you! Are you one of those crazy fanatics Janet had? HELP! HELP!
Christopher Guest runs up, trying to hold the Old Aunt back from striking Rancette.
CHRISTOPHER GUEST: Now Aunt Lulu, this is Rancette. She's a close friend to Jamie and me.
OLD AUNT: Well, if you say so. See you later, Chrissy-boy.
RANCETTE: Wow, thank you for saving me like that. Did Rance tell you I was coming?
CHRISTOPHER GUEST: I am Rance!
RANCETTE: No way! I would have never guessed. I thought you were much older.
CHRISTOPHER GUEST: Well, I'm no spring-chicken.
RANCETTE: You did say Janet was "family". You should have specified that she was your mother-in-law.
CHRISTOPHER GUEST: Well, I didn't want to give it away. Weren't you surprised? Wasn't this what you were least expecting?
RANCETTE: Are there any other stars here?
CHRISTOPHER GUEST: What!? You're not satisfied? You want to see other stars? Get out of here you ungrateful fool! Security!
Security throws Rancette outside the gates.
THE END
Yours Truly, rancette
