Zombies
Written by Marti and Lisa

NARRATOR: In Two Thousand Twelve, the apocalypse predicted by the ancient Mayan civilization brought new life to the long-dead ... As a result, libraries in Two Thousand Seventeen found themselves with a new service population. Zombies!
[cut to a male librarian (dark hair, glasses, black polo shirt, blue jeans) standing behind the front desk, cheerily talking to a male zombie (covered in blood and with exposed ribs)]
LIBRARIAN: Hello, what can I do for you today?
ZOMBIE: Braaaaiinnnsss ...
LIBRARIAN: I am sorry, I don't think I understand what you need.
ZOMBIE: Braaaaiinnnsss ...
[the librarian rubs his chin in a contemplative fashion]
LIBRARIAN: Do you need information on where to find brains? How to cook them? How to preserve them? The controversial Brains Charognard? Human-zombie relations? Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease? Zombism in Haitian voodoo rituals? Works by George Romero? Wade Davis? Max Brooks?
ZOMBIE: Braaaaiinnnsss ...
LIBRARIAN: Do you know how you would like to have the information delivered? Print? Audio? Video? Digital?
ZOMBIE: Braaaaiinnnsss ...
[the librarian shakes his head]
LIBRARIAN: I'm sorry, sir, but I need to ask you to respect my personal space. I need my brains to help other patrons. This is a public space, and we need to respect everyone's right to be here.
ZOMBIE: Braaaaiinnnsss ...
LIBRARIAN: If you need further assistance, let me know. Otherwise, I encourage you to explore the pathfinder we have on this subject.
ZOMBIE: Braaaaiinnnsss ...
LIBRARIAN: Have a great day!
ZOMBIE: Braaaaiinnnsss ...
