Here's a sketch I wrote recently.
INT. AIRPLANE GATE WAITING AREA
A HUSBAND & WIFE are seated in a waiting area, next to a MALE COUPLE with a baby. The Wife notices the baby and whispers to her husband.
WIFE
Ooh, look at that little sweet pea!
HUSBAND
With any luck, we’ll have our own baby soon!
WIFE
(whispers)
You know, I’m ovulating right now!
HUSBAND
Really? Should we go try?
(He indicates to the bathroom.)
WIFE
GROSS! Let's wait until we get to Sydney. Can I tell you a secret?
HUSBAND
Of course.
WIFE
I chose Sydney as a destination because I want to name the baby where we conceive him or her.
HUSBAND
Oh yeah like celebrity parents do.
WIFE
Yes! I’ve planned everything out!
HUSBAND
I wonder what that little guy’s name is.
WIFE
(to couple)
Excuse me, your baby is so adorable!
HUSBAND
(under breath to wife)
Not as cute as ours will be.
(She shoos him away.)
PARTNER 1
Thank you. Do you have kids?
WIFE
Not yet. We’re actually just starting to try.
HUSBAND
What’s your baby’s name?
PARTNER 2
Oh, we thought so long and hard. We wanted something original.
PARTNER 1
Something to stand out on the playground.
PARTNER 2
But in the ended we named him where he was conceived.
PARTNER 2
We’re lucky because all our favorite vacation spots all make great unisex names.
(Husband and wife are slightly confused as to how the baby was conceived but ignore it.)
WOMAN
(to husband)
Fuck!
HUSBAND
It’s okay honey.
WIFE
NO IT’S NOT. We’re just gonna be another couple with another kid with a boring name living in Milwaukee.
HUSBAND
We can still name our kid Sydney.
WIFE
No, no. It’s too cliche!
HUSBAND
Maybeeee we can choose a different destination. Let’s see if we can switch our tickets and fly to another place tonight!
WIFE
Good idea!
They walk up to the ticket counter to speak to the TICKET AGENT.
WIFE (CONT’D)
Any chance we can get transfer our flight to Melbourne?
She emphasizes “Melbourne” to her husband, asking if he’s cool with that name. He’s fine with it.
TICKET AGENT
Nope.
HUSBAND
(to ticket agent and wife)
Adelaide?
WIFE
No.
HUSBAND
Perth?
Wife shakes her head.
HUSBAND (CONT’D)
Brisbane?
WIFE
(shrugs)
I guess.
TICKET AGENT
Nothing available to Brisbane.
WIFE
Let’s try Asia. Seoul?
HUSBAND
I love that name! Little Seoul would be good at EVERYTHING. Soccer, music of course--
TICKET AGENT
Flights to Seoul are booked today but I can get you on one tomorrow.
WIFE
That’s too late! I won’t be ovulating!
(Ticket agent gives her a quizzical look. TMI.)
TICKET AGENT
Hmmm...
(A series of quick shots between wife and ticket agent follows.)
WIFE
Geneva?
TICKET AGENT
No.
WIFE
Osaka?
(Ticket agent shakes head.)
WIFE (CONT’D)
Berlin.
TICKET AGENT
Of course not.
WIFE
Sao Paulo?
TICKET AGENT
No.
WIFE
Manila?
HUSBAND
NO.
WIFE
Dubai?/Monterrey?/Sochi?
TICKET AGENT
No. No. No.
WIFE
Lillehammer? Athens? Turin?
TICKET AGENT
Sorry. We don’t have any flights to Olympic cities.
CUT TO:
INT. DAYCARE CENTER--4 YEARS LATER
Our Husband and Wife are dropping off their CHILD at his first day of daycare. A TEACHER turns to introduce the new kid to the rest of the room, where a number of KIDS run and play.
TEACHER
Kids quiet down. That means you Kabul! Serbia, get up and do something. And Beirut, pick up those blocks. Tehran stop pulling Tel Aviv’s hair. Kandahar and Kariachi good job putting away your toys.
HUSBAND
Such interesting names.
TEACHER
Yeah, parents wants to name their kids after popular geographical destinations, but after a glut of Londyns and Brooklyns, the only original names left are war torn places. What’s this little guy’s name, by the way?
(Wife pushes Child toward the Teacher.)
WIFE
Say, hello Starbucks bathroom from Concourse G, Gate 29!
