La bella azafata entra a la cabina de los pilotos.
Azafata:
– Tenemos un problema serio. La cafetera no calienta lo suficiente. Ya se me han quejado dos pasajeros.
– No, porque son demasiados cafés, voy a estar todo el día de cocinera.
Copiloto:
– A ver si podemos hacer algo, la cabina usa 110 volts, podemos pasarlo a 220 y el café se va a hacer en un minutito…
Piloto:
– Me parece que el manual dice que no conviene cambiar el voltaje…

This short script for video or TV requires minimal scenery. Like all the ones in the category “Genie” it can refer to a male or female “genie”. The Genie uses a simple costume, with a couple of sheets used as robe and head scarf. Wide purple or red belt, also made with a sheet. The lamp can be made of cardboard. These elements are used for 6 or 7 episodes of Genie written so far. The sponsors for this video set may be multiple. Any product that does something like “magic”. Or anything to fill someone’s wishes, as does the Genie.
The Genie of the Lamp stands guard near Pedrito, who is relaxed while reading a magazine.
Pedrito:
Hey Genie, can you bring me a coffee?
genie:
As you wish, my master. Moka Java, Costa Rica, Brazil?
Pedrito:
Common coffee.
(Genie snorts)
Pedrito:
What’s wrong?
El cocinero mandaparte habla y cocina. El camarógrafo se tienta con la comida. Se acerca a una cereza y la roba. La imagen muestra un lento acercamiento a la cereza, pese a que el cocinero h
abla de otra cosa. Primerísimo primer plano de la cereza.
Luego de un breve plano del cocinero hablando ante cámara, sobre las delicias de las cerezas, algo ocurre. Plano del cocinero que busca en vano la cereza, y luego trata de disimular y cambia de tema. Plano del plato vacío sin la cereza (se la comió el cameraman). Continue reading

In a dental waiting room we see several patients with swollen faces and the typical bandage around face and head.
The camera focuses on each and the penultimate is … the Pope, with his typical miter (high hat) and ceremonial clothes. The camera shows: Patient 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (Pope), 6, and then back to 5, as if notizing the Pope with surprise. Continue reading
The master reads the newspaper and the Genie offers:
– Coffee, Master?
– Yes, I could have some coffee

A singer is making playback, in a full auditorium. But he needs to sneeze. The playback continues as if nothing happened. Then he must answer the cell phone. Then an admirer asks for an autograph and a kiss.
During the whole song, the music continues as if nothing happened.
Finally, he salutes the public as if nothing was wrong.
Note: this sketch is an opportunity for a composer or a singer to show his artwork, or to a model to show his body.
En español: Playback
Supermag is a lousy magician, but has a very pretty asistant. He is mixing a deck of cards and they fall from his hands. He spends time collecting them.
He talks to the cameraman explaining how to fix the mishap: combine a video played backwards to the video of the accident card fall. We later see the fixed video, where the magician has his cards go back to his hand.
The cameraman will be part of many other episodes, because he can cut and paste film to make “magic” tricks, like the assistant disappearance.
He invites someone from the public to select a card. He takes the card and puts it back in the deck, but both forget which card it was. The asistant smiles all the time at the crowd and is unable to help.
