Getting the Boot - Comedy

When four recruits show up for Boot Camp, they learn the concepts of what it means to show humility towards others; have respect for others; be loyal to your friends; how to successfully perform your duties and how to show honor to authority.  Based on various Old and New Testament Bible Stories, like: Jesus washing his disciples feet; the Good Samaritan; David and Jonathan; Joseph and his brothers and the Parable of the father and his two sons.

Part 1:  Unit 29 in Boot Camp has just recruited 4 new members:

1. Ford:  A girl who is paranoid and afraid of everything around her
2. Miller: A germ phobic, hypochondriac guy
3. Smith: A nice tough guy who seems perfect for the Army life
4. Jenkins: A pampered girl who thinks she signed up for free boots and other fashion accessories.

The group seems like an odd unit, which only gets worse upon meeting their Drill Sergeant, an odd-ball man who insists on being called "Major Dude."

For their first task, the group must conquer an obstacle course.  Everyone seems to do well except for Jenkins, who didn't want to ruin her $100 pair of designer shoes, so she took them off, only to find her feet become severely cut and bruised.  No one in the unit will help her, including the drill sergeant who declares: "You're on your own. I don't do feet."  And apparently, neither does anyone else in the group.  Miller is afraid he'll contract some kind of disease just by touching the feet, and Ford is afraid she'll cause gangrene.  Luckily, Smith comes to the rescue, for which Major Dude wants to give him a Medal of Honor. 

Part 2:  It seems Ford has gotten in trouble for spilling her lunch on the General's head, and has found herself scrubbing the barracks and latrines with her toothbrush.  When she finds there may be spiders nearby (which she is terrified of) she tries to enlist the help of her fellow recruits but it seems no one wants to help her.  Miller passes out at the mere thought of Ford's toothbrush coming in contact with all those germs and Jenkins has a hot date with a guy in another unit.  But once again, nice guy Smith comes to her rescue and not only helps her scrub the floors but promises to ward off any wayward spiders.

Part 3:  Because of Smith's participation in Ford's punishment the previous day, (which is a Boot Camp "no, no") the General is now calling for Smith to be put in one night of solitary confinement.  The only problem is, our fearless "hero" seems to be claustrophobic, or as Major Dude says, "crampo-phobico."  The only way out of the punishment seems to be for the entire unit to run 5 miles.  However, they've just come in from a 5 mile run, and are so exhausted they can barely move.  The unit has to decide if they are willing to help out a friend or let him suffer alone.

Part 4: Smith has been cleared for a weekend leave in order to attend his parent's 40th wedding anniversary, which he and his family have been planning for months.  He's all set to go when suddenly Major Dude announces he has forgotten his father's birthday (the General). It's too bad because the General is expecting a huge party complete with a fantastic gift.  So, Major Dude enlists the help of his recruits, and by "help" he means they get to do it all. The invitations, the food and the decorations don't seem to be a problem, but the gift proves more difficult.  Where will they find a spectacular gift at this late hour?  Unfortunately, Smith has to look no further than his parent's anniversary present.

Part 5:  For the last day of Boot Camp, Major Dude has one more task for his recruits: build for him the fort he never had as a child.  Some of the recruits balk at this, arguing this was not what Boot Camp was designed to be and that there are better ways to spend their time than building a fort. But Smith, knowing the importance of taking orders, agrees to do it.  However, later on  Smith changes his mind after remembering the thankless efforts he and the others put into the General's birthday party.  Major Dude took Smith's gift intended for his parents, and gave it to the General, passing it off as his own idea.  Smith gets "worked up" and decides not to build the fort.  In the meantime, the others begin to speculate what might happen if they don't build the fort, so they agree to do it.  In the end, Major Dude has a confession: he's only been pretending to be a "jerk" in order to observe the true characters of his recruits.  Smith learns the importance of trusting his commander and they all learn that nobody is perfect. 

Themes: Spiritual training/concepts similar to Boot Camp, teaching concepts of humility, respect, loyalty, duty and honor

The Rocks Cry Out - Comedy

Teens John and Tom need a substitute guitar player for their church band.  They've found the perfect person, except they are too ashamed to ask him.  Says Tom, "I don't want Joe to think I'm a religious freak!" Thus, the surrounding rocks begin to speak out, laying claim to Jesus words that if God's people are silent, even the rocks will cry out.  At first, John and Tom think the talking rocks are cool, but when they find out they were the cause, and the reasons the rocks have come to life, they begin to rethink their original position. This light-hearted comedy will appeal to both teens and adults.

Themes: Ashamed of being a Christian; talking about God; the rocks cry out if God's people don't praise Him; peer opinions
