INT. LIVING ROOM - DAY

The Smith family is adjusting to life under quarantine. JENNIFER, the mom, is trying to work from home, while DAVE, the dad, is attempting to homeschool their two kids, MIKE and LILY.

JENNIFER

(on a video call)

Sorry about the interruption, folks. That's just my son doing interpretative dance in the background.

MIKE

(dancing wildly)

It's the quarantine shuffle, Mom!

INT. KITCHEN - DAY

Dave is attempting to cook a gourmet meal with limited ingredients.

DAVE

(looking at a recipe)

We're out of flour, sugar, and eggs. Looks like it's a three-course meal of canned beans tonight.

LILY

(laughing)

At least we're saving money on groceries.

INT. FAMILY ZOOM CALL - NIGHT

The family gathers for a virtual game night with relatives.

GRANDMA

(looking at the screen)

Are those pajamas, Mike?

MIKE

(grinning)

They're my formal pajamas, Grandma.

INT. LIVING ROOM - LATER

Jennifer is scrolling through social media, finding humor in the various quarantine memes.

JENNIFER

(laughing)

"Day 347 of quarantine: My houseplants have started a support group for neglect."

DAVE

(smiling)

We've officially entered the plant revolution.

EXT. BACKYARD - DAY

The family attempts a DIY project, building a makeshift fort out of bedsheets and broomsticks.

LILY

(excited)

Our very own quarantine castle!

As the family laughs and bonds through the chaos of quarantine, they discover that humor can be the best coping mechanism during these challenging times.

FADE OUT.
