“Donda,” An Original Script (Scene Two)

, ,

Scene Two opens with Donald at Dionysus’ store in Brooklyn. Dionysus is the ancient God of Gold and Wishes. He is ecstatic to see Donald.


Dionysus: Ayyyyy!!!!! Donny boy!!!!! Just saw you got into this year’s NBA championship with the Knicks!

Donald: Good to see you, Dionysus! Yeah! If we win, I’ll get a huge pay raise, and I plan to put a theme park inside Madison Square Garden.

Dionysus: Are you sure you don’t want to do something meaningful with your raise? Your net worth is a billion dollars, man. So I feel like you should be donating the cash to charity or something.

Donald: Ummm….. I’m gonna pretend I didn’t hear that. Listen! Kim and I are fighting right now because she feels like I’m not a good dad to North. I have basketball to focus on. How else am I gonna get rich?

Dionysus: Well, North is 17. You really ought to spend more time with her before she goes to college.

Donald: If I’m honest, can you make it that everything I touch turn to gold? Kim told me that I should wish for that.

Dionysus: I mean, I think she was sarcastic. But I’ll oblige. {He goes to his shelf and grabs a bottle labeled ‘Gold’ on it, and hands it to Donald.} I have cast this spell before on King Midas long ago. The results were…

Donald: {Interrupting Dionysus’ warning and grabbing the bottle.} Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let’s do this!

{Donald downs the whole bottle as OK OK by Kanye West, and Lil Yachty plays in the background. He touches a shelf, and it instantly turns into gold.}

Donald: {Excited about his new gift.} It works!!!!!!!! That shelf is gold!!!!! Thank you, bro!!! See you later!!!!!

{Donald walks out of the store, touching everything as he walks out.}

Dionysus: {In shock.} I have a bad feeling about this.

{Donald continues to touch everything in his path as Jail by Kanye West, and Jay-Z starts playing in the background. The trees, the grass, the leaves, and everything else turn into gold as he skips along. A few hours past and Donald is back home with North, Saint, Psalm, Chicago, and Kim.}

Kim: {Disappointed in her husband’s immature behavior.} I was sarcastic!

Donald: Honey, don’t think I forgot about you. {He pulls out a golden ring and puts it on her finger.} Here ya go!

Kim: It’s so beautiful!!!! But no! I meant that you have to start giving more and being a good dad.

Donald: My net worth is a billion dollars, Kim. Do you think I’m giving that away? No! That’s not what it means to be a celebrity! Or an athlete who’s on his way to winning an NBA championship.

North: {Impatient and mad.} See, Dad! That’s the thing! You! You think you know what a celebrity means being! But you don’t! If you’re trying to shape us into you, then forget it! If I were a parent, things would be different. I’d want to be a good influence on my kids.

{Kim, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm leave. North starts leaving but looks back at her famous dad.}

North: My graduation next month?

Donald: I’ll be there. Chill!

{North leaves, even more, nervous and scared than before.}

Donald: They’ll see. I’m still rich and famous.

{Little does Donald know that his new powers are about to get him into trouble. To be continued.}
