ON THE EIGHTH DAY - 13 Pages
Genre: Dark Comedy
Logline: A depressed God makes an Armageddon deal with the Devil in order to set up the Second Coming.
Synopsis: God is depressed. Earth has not turned out the way he expected, and he is at a loss as to what to do. He’s tried trotting out his only son to fix things, but that ended in a rather bad way; the poor kid is traumatized for life.
He’s threatened Armageddon several times but just doesn’t have the heart to follow through. So he decides to meet with his childhood friend he’s known from the very beginning, Satan. God and Satan were once best buds, but then Satan got pissed that God was getting all the credit, and things went to hell.
But they still talk, still, help one another… they just don’t tell anyone. So God picks up his iPhone and calls Nell (his nickname for Satan) for a long overdue family meeting.
In God's garden patio, the angels Michael, Gabriel, Uriel, Asrael, and Raphael all join God as summoned. Once Satan arrives, the true motivations of each angel manifest, including Asrael's desire to end all of them once and for all.
In private, God and Nell don't mince words or powers, and in the end, an agreement is reached. But "who" will carry out this apocalyptic demise? Well, that's what Second Comings are all about.
