A/N: Well, we read this in Lit class a long time ago, and for some reason I decided it would be fun to screw up one of Shakespeare's most famous plays and make this...thing. It's basically my interpretation of Romeo and Juliet, with a few minor twists thrown in. Have fun!
Romeo and Juliet: Breaking the Fourth Wall
Act One, Scene One
Samson: My life sucks.
Gregory: We're rolling….
Samson: Oh, right. My life doth suck-eth.
Gregory: True, my friend. Our lives are fullest to the brim of suck-eth events.
Samson: Why in the hell do the Capulets and Montagues fight…eth?
Gregory: No clue, do I haveth.
Samson: You're a servant from Verona, you're not Yoda.
Gregory: Shut-eth up.
Samson: I want to hit some maids.
Gregory: You're going to kill them?
Samson: …sure. Take that in whatever sense you want to.
Gregory: OMG draw thy dick! …I mean sword.
[Enter Abram and Balthazar]
Samson: My dick – I mean sword – is out!
Gregory: eth.
Samson: Right, right. Eth.
[Samson gives Abram and Balthazar the finger]
Abram: What the hell? Do you give us the finger?
Samson: I do give the finger.
Abram: To us?
Samson: Will we go to prison if I say yes?
Abram: Probably-eth.
Balthazar: Okay, talking like this sucks! I'm talking normally now.
Abram: Sounds good.
Samson: Okay, then. Then no, I didn't give YOU the finger.
Gregory: You want to pick a fight, bastard?
Abram: Nope.
Samson: Well, if you do, I'll fight you.
Abram: Shut up. This scene sucks, anyway. I want vodka.
[Enter Benvolio]
Benvolio: Shut up, all of you! Fighting is stupid. We should all live in a flowery place of peace and rainbows!
All: Shut up, France!
[Enter Tybalt]
Tybalt: Die Benvolio!
Benvolio: Why? I haven't done anything. All I want is peace!
Tybalt: Peace! I hate peace! And love! And Montagues! And my life! EMO! EMO!
[Enter random Citizens]
Citizens: (chanting) Fight! Fight! Fight!
[Enter Capulet and Lady Capulet]
Capulet: What the hell is going on? Edna! Get my sword!
Lady Capulet: My name isn't Edna! And why do you want a sword?
Capulet: So I can beat the crap out of Montague!
[Enter Montague and Lady Montague]
Montague: Holy hell! Edna! Get my sword!
Lady Montague: My name isn't Edna, either! And you're both too old to fight! You're, like, a hundred years old!
[Enter Prince]
Prince: What the hell? Old people fighting? You're all stupid retards! You're always fighting!
Montague: What's shoved up your ass?
Prince: No more fighting or I'll stick your head up YOUR ass!
Montague: I'm not sure that'll work…
Prince: Capulets, come with me. Montagues, leave me the hell alone.
[Exit all but Montague, Lady Montague, and Benvolio]
Montague: Who started this fight?
Benvolio: The servants. (begins to cry) Why can't we all just get along?
Montague: (slaps Benvolio) What else happened?
Benvolio: I tried to stop them, but Tybalt came and screwed it up. Then the Prince came and stopped them.
Lady Montague: Where the hell is Romeo? Did you see him today?
Benvolio: Yeah, I saw him. He was walking away, and I tried to follow him, but he saw me and ran into the woods.
Lady Montague: …why were you following him?
Benvolio: …er, no reason… (looks away)
Montague: (sighs) Romeo's been moping around for a while now. All he does is sneak out of the house, come back later, cry, and shut himself in his room and be emo. Just like Tybalt.
Benvolio: What's wrong with him?
Montague: (reads script) It says here I've got to say this whole thing here, but nothing makes sense. "As is the bud bit with an envious worm"? It sounds like a sexual metaphor! So I'll just say that I don't know and leave it at that.
[Enter Romeo]
Benvolio: Romeo! There you are!
Montague: Uh, we're just going to leave…
[Exit Montague and Lady Montague]
Benvolio: What's up, Romeo?
Romeo: What time is it?
Benvolio: Nine.
Romeo: *sigh* Time takes longer nowadays in my emo days of sorrow.
Benvolio: It does, doesn't it? But what makes it that way?
Romeo: I'm in love with Rosaline, but she doesn't love me back.
Benvolio: …Rosaline?
Romeo: Yeah. Well, monogamy is overrated, Benvolio.
Benvolio: huh.
Romeo: Love sucks! Well, hers does, at least. O beautiful ugliness!
Benvolio: …
Romeo: O lovely hate, O hately love!
Benvolio: Okay, 'hately' isn't even a word…
Romeo: O kind murderer!
Benvolio: Do you have Multiple Personality Disorder or something?
Romeo: I'm bipolar, but that isn't the point.
Benvolio: uh…
A/N: *stammering* What is this, I don't even...
