FADE IN:
INT. – Ray and Debra’s Living Room -
Night
(Phil Rosenthal)
FX: Instrumental “All That Jazz”
The room is dark except for a faint light
shining on a small stage platform in the center of Ray and
Debra’s living room.
Gradually, a flood light shines from behind
the platform upward towards the ceiling. The music suddenly
grows louder as the platform rises up.
A spotlight hits the platform. Standing on
the platform is Phil Rosenthal, dressed in a black tuxedo,
with a 1930’s style radio microphone.
FX: Music fades out

Ladies and Gentlemen, you are
about to see a story of jealousy, competition and a little
family insanity. All the things we hold near and dear to
our hearts. Thank you.
