ALERT Server Move – ACT I
SCENE I:
NARRATOR: ALERT had a problem; all the computers that kept the offices alive and humming were tucked in a
small, out of the way closet in the basement. A new piece of equipment had just come in and space in the old
room was limited. There was a solution but it would involve quite a bit of work. Looks like a job for Cahill and
Cahill.
ENTER: Cahill and Cahill
CAHILL: Methinks, dear partner, that a move is in order, could you possibly render service?
PRETTY ASSOCIATE (PA): Wherever thou goest, I shall go. Whatever thou doest, I shall do. Your work shall be my work, and your schedule my schedule.
CAHILL: Right then, let us be off!
<Exuant.>
ACT I SCENE II
SETTING: ALERT Basement.
PA: Painting, painting, painting. The job started as just one wall an now becometh the entire room!
CAHILL: Thou doest well in thy task
PA: Yes, but when comes the real work?
CAHILL: Soon. When all has been made ready then we two shall meet, in thunder lightning or in rain.
PA: Double toil and double trouble.
ACT I SCENE III
SETTING: Basement
CAHILL: Bear but a short time more for there is yet work to be done.
PA: More painting?
CAHILL: Nay, methinks you are ready for an upgrade – wiring.
PA: Tell me, how goeth it?
CAHILL: Orange-white orange, green-white, blue, blue-white, green, brown-white, brown.
PA:
It’s Greek to me, but familiar in his mouth as household words.
CAHILL: All is now in readiness. The hour is late and nothing can be done till morning…let us to bed. There we shall wait with bated breath…
PA: I knew tuna fish was a bad choice for dinner.
<Exuant>
