The zombie plague unleashes its horrors on the suburbs of Atlanta without warning, pitting the living against the dead. Caught in the mass exodus, Lilly Caul struggles to survive in a series of ragtag encampments and improvised shelters. But the Walkers are multiplying. Dogged by their feral hunger for flesh and crippled by fear, Lilly relies on the protection of good Samaritans by seeking refuge in a walled-in town once known as Woodbury, Georgia. At first, Woodbury seems like a perfect sanctuary. Squatters barter services for food, people have roofs over their heads, and the barricade expands, growing stronger every day. Best of all, a mysterious self-proclaimed leader named Philip Blake keeps the citizens in line. But Lilly begins to suspect that all is not as it seems. . . . Blake, who has recently begun to call himself The Governor, has disturbing ideas about law and order. Ultimately, Lilly and a band of rebels open up a Pandora’s box of mayhem and destruction when they challenge The Governor’s reign . . . and the road to Woodbury becomes the highway to hell in this riveting follow-up to Robert Kirkman and Jay Bonansinga''s New York Times bestselling The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor.

The "grumpy old man" from Saturday Night Live complains about the need for any kind of well-thought out answers to the question of origins. "In my day we were just satisfied we were alive... nobody asked if you were a pro-creationist. If you were married, you were pro-creationists...in my day, you didn''t have explanations for dinosaurs. Whenever we saw a reptile we immediately turned it into a nice handbag or a belt. If dinosaurs had been real we''d have made really big handbags and belts." You get the point. A humorous spoof of people who have bad reasons for what they believe about where we came from, and a great drama to disarm tensions about this issue.Topics: CREATIONS VS. EVOLUTIONCharacters: 1 MALEParticipants: 1Author: Mark Demel

This sketch explores the idea of having more than we really need or want. Throughout the action of the scene, several people walk on stage and add to an ever growing mound of stuff: garbage, old clothes, unwanted and unused items. Liz, Jane and Ed, after disposing of their items, speak directly to the audience, describing what they''ve thrown away and why. The sketch concludes with another couple entering as if they too will add something to the pile, but instead begin to discreetly take things that they need. (Note: This sketch is a bit shorter than our average - approximately 4 minutes in length.)

Then by chance, Beth meets Jeff, a man with a similar history. Jeff suggests she meet this "amazing teacher" who has helped him overcome his worries. Beth then speaks of meeting Jesus, coming to know him and the changes that have taken place in her life.

Siblings Tony, Diana and Fletcher meet their deceased father''s lawyer to discuss their inheritance. Diana is livid that Fletcher is in attendance.

Tony and Diana honored their father by successfully growing their share into many millions. When Fletcher realized his mistakes, he humbly returned to reconcile with his father who joyously celebrated his return. As the will is read, we learn that their father leaves some money to Tony and Diana, but they are sorely disappointed at the amount.
