Grease vs. Maccie D's

The Characters: Grease, a greek.
A Macdonalds drone.
Macdonalds Manager.
Various extras.

The curtain rises on the interior of a macdonalds burger bar. Stage left is the cash desk and ordering point, stage right is a large glass door and some tables. It is early morning. The drone stands behind the cash desk. Enter Grease and companions.

GREASE: So, what SHIT am i going to eat today?
Drone blanks him.
GREASE: How about a mcSHIT menu with extra SHIT?
Drone blanks him, companions snigger.
GREASE: You don't have that? Ok, how about a crispy mcPOISON menu then?
Drone looks nervous.
GREASE: Ok, ok. How about....a mc NOTHING menu. I'll give you 7 euros, and you give me a tray!
Drone calls manager. chaos insues, during which the manager threatens to eject Grease and co. from the burger king, and grease pulls a variety of grimaces while the managers back is turned. Actors are left free to imagine these grimaces, but may wish to use the example in figure i as a basic guideline. Grease eventually calms himself.
GREASE: So, gimme the breakfast mcmuffin menu.
Drone complies.
GREASE: Oh shit no i dont want that give me the continental mcmorning menu instead.
The group retires to the tables stage right, where they begin to eat
GREASE: Fuck, o forgot the milk.
Fetches milk, returns to tables
GREASE (pelting companions with single serving milk tubs): Here you go guys, heres your goddamn milk! ya! ha! take that!
enter manager stage right etc. etc.
