"Door Made Entirely Of Screen"
TV Script
OPEN ON A BLANK SLIDE. A PROJECTOR IS HEARD. AS WILKIE
BEGINS TALKING, IT CHANGES TO A SLIDE THAT READS, "RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT PRESENTATION 076-5848B"
WILKIE: Sir, we have some innovations to protect
homes from mosquitoes that may carry the West Nile virus.
BOSS: I'm waiting, Wilkie.
CUT TO A NEW SLIDE: A SCREEN DOOR. A GASP IS
HEARD.
BOSS: A door
made entirely of
screen.
WILKIE: We call it "screen door." By
installing or repairing screens, you keep mosquitoes out.
CUT TO NEW SLIDES: STANDING WATER IN A FLOWER POT; THEN
A BIRD BATH; THEN A DOG DISH. A GASP IS HEARD.
WILKIE: We also recommend people remove standing
water where mosquitoes gather.
BOSS: But how???
CUT TO A NEW SLIDE: A CLOSE-UP OF THE WATER IN THE DOG
DISH BEING POURED OUT. A GASP IS HEARD.
WILKIE: By pouring it out, sir.
BOSS: You're good, Wilkie. You're very, very
good.
CUT TO A BLANK SLIDE AND A SUPER:
The West Nile virus is no match for common sense.
