(A big studio full of audience. A showmaster is entering the studio through a door
 behind the audience. He is walking down the stairs and finally stops in front of the
 audience. His appearance is accompanied by applause.)

Showmaster:
       Hello everybody, my name is Tony Mohomoles and I welcome you to our new
       episode of the After-Life-Show. (audience is cheering and applauding)
       I can see that you are keen to get known to our candidates who were just on their
       way to hell when we caught them. One of the three can be saved and it's your turn
       to decide who it is. Our jury which I'll introduce lateron will help you with the
      decision of course. I promise you: Today we have really bad guys and it's gonna be
      a hard decision. But you'll have to wait a few minutes until you can finally see
      them. They are behind this curtain, not knowing yet where they are. -
      I welcome you back after the commercials.

(in the room with the three guys)

voice: (through a speaker, sounds friendly)
       Please sit down and be quiet. We will start in a few minutes!

Dave: (looking around in the room)
       What the hell was that??
Siegfried:
       What will start in a few minutes?
JoeRay:
        The eamination, man! - Are you whitnesses or have you committed a crime?
Dave:
        A Crime? Me? Why?
 
 

Siegfried:
       We don't know why we are here. And I don't know why you think this is gonna
        be an examination.

voice: (friendly again)
        Please sit down and be quiet until we call you up. We will start in a few seconds.

(in the studio)

Showmaster: (with a swelled voice, raising with every tone)
        Welcome back everybody! You're prepared to start? Alright, ...lift the curtain!

(the curtain rises and behind it there is a big window through which one can see the
 room with the three guys. Inside the room, the guys can just see the mirror, so it's
 only the audience can see them, not vice versa. applause.)

Showmaster:
        Here they are, Ladies and Gentlemen! The one sitting on the left side is JoeRay, a
        taxi driver from Brooklyn. He is 26 years old and robbed a bank. Can you tell us
        how you died?

JoeRay:
        What? I died?! Em. Urgh. (disappointed)
Dave:
        He told us something about a car accident.
Showmaster:
        You were not asked, but thank you for the clue, it's true. Let's carry on with you,
        buddy, once you're talking.
Dave: (gets angry)
        You call me buddy?
Showmaster:
        Come on, you're not here for fun, or let's say not for your fun. - I guess you don't
        know either how you died. I'll tell you: You got struck down with a knife by your
        girlfriend. Later we'll find out why she did it. By the way, Ladies and Gentlemen,
        this is Dave, 33 years old, dazzling white dents, from London, England.
        Applause for Dave! (applause)
        Let's carry on with candidate number 3. His name is Siegfried, he is 56 years old
        and comes from Northern Germany. (interrupts, voice gets down) People! - We
        had several weird deaths in our show, but this one is the best I ever had. You
        can't possibly guess how he died cause it is (voice starts to get louder again) so
        weird and so funny! I don't want to excite you too much: He was standing at the
        rail of a ship, having a cigarette while a frozen airplane toilet fell on his head.
        Isn't that crazy?!
        (audience laughs and screams)

Siegfried:
        Did you hear that? They laugh about me.
Dave: (laughs)

Showmaster:
       At first we even had the chance to get a plutonium smuggler, a poor Russian who
       needed money for his family, as a candidate for the show. His last meal was the
       burger he took out of the lead suitcase. At least he thought it was a burger... But,
       well, as life often goes... when we tried to catch him on his way to hell, the KGB
       came first...
       Now back to you. Okay, it's time to be a bit honest to you, guys. Your situation is
       very bad. As you found out you are all dead. But this is not bad enough. What
       happens to bad people when they have died?

Dave:
      I don't know, it's my first time?
Showmaster:
     What happens to bad people when they have died? (gives the audience a sign)
audience: (shouting)
     They go to hell!!!
Showmaster:
     You three are possibly on your way to hell - but one of you can be saved and gets
     a new chance.
Dave:
     So guys, have a nice life in hell, I'll quit, okay?
Showmaster:
     Shut up! It's not that easy. You first have to convince us, and as you are going on
     my nerves, you'll gonna be the last one who tells us his story.
audience:
     OOOh!
