The Treasure Hunter Skit

For my first post, I will ill-advisably post my very first (good) skit. This was originally intended for Boy Scouts.

The Treasure Hunter

*Marcus, in suit and tie, walks, with obvious pride,
to center stage*

Marcus: Ladies and Gentlemen, it is I, the great
Marcus! treasure finder to the ends of the earth,
expert explorer, linguist extraordinaire! Before your
astounded eyes, I will now reveal the fine art of
discovering treasure.
To instruct you in this most noble art, my
colleague and I will venture deep into the dark,
perilous jungles of South America in search of the
legendary Nimbo-Claude Treasure.

*Crew member 1 and Marcus walk to side stage.*

Marcus: *pointing to hole* Look, -emeralds, rubies,
sapphires-these are worth millions! My friend, we have
discovered the famed Nimbo-Claude cache. We can now
retire and live out the rest of our days in ease and
luxury.

Crew member 1: *leaning over* Where,.....I don't see
any-

*Marcus pushes Crew member 1 into the hole*

Marcus:*holding wallet up* Behold, I have harvested
his wallet. Soon, by my cunning skill, my trillion
dollar fund will be complete, then I will truly be
able to retire in ease and luxury.

*Crew member 2 and Marcus are at the same hole.*
*Marcus is facing hole.*

Marcus:Look Antonio, we have discovered Aztec gold,
buried here thousands of years ago, by that ancient
empire. We are now rich men.

Crew member 2:You mean in the other hole? The large
one behind you?

Marcus: Wha- *Marcus spins around* *Crew member 2
pushes him into hole.*

Crew Member 2:Behold, I have harvested his tie pin.
Truly you should not go on expeditions into the jungle
wearing tie pins.......
