Reader 1:  The Father.

Reader 2:  The Son.

Reader 1:  The Holy Spirit.

Reader 2:  Not half but whole!

(R1 turns and gives a slight dirty look to R2)

Reader 1:  Holy as in hallowed.

Reader 2:  Not full but hollow.

(R1 turns, puts hands on hips and gives a good dirty stare at R2. R2 raises hands as if to say, what?)

Reader 1:  Holy as in divine.

Reader 2:  Not the flower but D whole vine.

(R1 turns to R2 and shouts…)

Reader 1:  HOLY!

(R2 scratches head as if thinking…)

Reader 2:  Moly?

(R1 trying to stay calm for the audience)

Reader 1:  Stop.

(R2 quickly says…)

Reader 2:  Go.

(R1 very upset screams…)

Reader 1:  STOP!

(R2 cups hands around mouth and shouts…)

Reader 2:  GO!

(R2 turns to R1 and smiles. Immediately seeing that R1 is upset and then turn away like a cowardly dog. R1 tries to get back to a state of calm.)
