The Shoplifter

EXT. SUPERMARKET.

A LARGE MAN EXITS THE STORE WITH WHAT APPEARS TO BE SEVERAL LARGE BULKY OBJECTS UNDER HIS JUMPER AND DOWN HIS TROUSERS.

A SECURITY GUARD STEPS OUT AND STOPS THE MAN.

SECURITY GUARD:
Excuse me sir, would you mind stepping back into the store a moment.

EMBARRASSED AND AT A LOSS, THE MAN IS LED BACK INSIDE.

CUT TO:

INT. SECURITY OFFICE.

THE SECURITY GUARD AND STORE MANAGER ARE SITTING WITH THEIR MOUTHS OPEN.

THE LARGE MAN HAS BEEN STRIPPED DOWN TO HIS BOXER SHORTS AND IS STANDING BEFORE THEM.

HIS NAKEDNESS REVEALS THAT THE LUMPS AND CORNERS BENEATH HIS CLOTHES WERE ACTUALLY THE NATURAL SHAPE OF HIS STRANGE BODY.

LARGE MAN:
Can I go home now?

THE TWO MEN REMAIN MESMERIZED BY THE UNGODLY SHAPE BEFORE THEM.

WITHOUT AVERTING HIS GAZE, THE GUARD DISCREETLY REACHES INTO HIS POCKET AND BRINGS OUT HIS MOBILE PHONE.

HE SNAPS A QUICK PICTURE OF THE LARGE SEMI-NAKED MAN AND PUTS THE PHONE DISCREETLY BACK IN HIS POCKET.

THE LARGE LUMPY MAN SIGHS.

FADE OUT.

END.
