The Bullpen Season 4 Episode 6: Luxury Box

ACE, DEVIN, ROBERT, FELIX, CHARLES, LORENZO, HARRY, and MANNY are all walking through a corridor in the stadium. 

DEVIN
Ace, are you sure this is a good idea?


ACE
Trust me, the team isn’t going to need any of us to pitch. It’s time we get a change of scenery. 


CHARLES
Personally I’m fine with watching the game from a luxury box. I’ve been in some before but not all of them.


FELIX
How many?


CHARLES
Probably around 7. 


HARRY
I’m just glad I won’t have to make any food. 


They arrive at their luxury box and walk in. 


LORENZO
FOOD!!!!!!!!


LORENZO quickly fills a plate with chicken tenders, fries, and a hot dog. 


MANNY
I can’t believe we got a luxury box all to ourselves!


FELIX
These seats are super comfortable. 


DEVIN
Even more comfortable than our bench?


FELIX
Way more comfortable than that. 


LORENZO
There’s no way! Let me try!


LORENZO sits down. 


LORENZO

Wow, these are comfortable!


ROBERT
We should try to watch the game from a luxury box more often. We deserve it. All this time we’ve been on the team, we should get to experience the stadium a little more. 


DEVIN
We should do this every game. 


MANNY
I wouldn’t get too far ahead of myself. You never know when they need one of you to pitch. 


ACE

They put in a position player to pitch the other day. I think they’ve established we’re not going to be used all that much this year. 


ROBERT

Hey, you guys hear that?


DEVIN

Yeah, sounds like someone knocked on the door. 


FELIX
I knew having a whole luxury box to ourselves was too good to be true. 


MANNY

Everyone stay calm, I’m sure whoever’s there will leave soon. 


MANNY hears the door open. Two men walk in. MANNY quickly realizes they are the owners of the team. 


OWNER #1

Hello folks. 


OWNER #2

Did not know there would be company today. 


MANNY

Do you two always watch games from the luxury box? 


OWNER #1

Yes Sir!


MANNY
This one?


OWNER #2

It’s the owners’ box, of course the owners would watch the game from here! 


DEVIN
We should really get going. 


OWNER #1 

Nonsense! Stay a while. 


Both men grab food and sit down. LORENZO looks disappointed when he sees them take the last chicken tenders. 


OWNER #2

So how about that bullpen? 


ROBERT
Yeah, how about them! 


OWNER #1

I don’t know where those dimwits are. Ah well, good thing we don’t need them to win a game. 


LORENZO
Yep, good thing you don’t need the bullpen that does not include any of us here!


OWNER #2

You’d think they’d at least show up for the game though. Kinda disrespectful that they figure they don’t even need to come to the ballpark today. 


LORENZO
Uh…yeah. 


OWNER #1
Alright I’m bored. 


CHARLES

Already? You just got here!


OWNER #2

Watching baseball is boring. 


ACE
Why do you own a baseball team when you hate watching baseball? 


OWNER #1

Lots of business opportunities. That’s why. 


Both owners leave. 


MANNY
Now that was a close one!


FELIX
Yeah, good thing the owners of this team are too inept to even know what their bullpen pitchers look like. 


DEVIN
How is the team this good with them as the owners? 


MANNY
Pretty sure it’s in spite of them. Let’s get out of here though before someone half-intelligent walks in and sees what we’re up to. 


Everyone leaves.
