Summary: This skit is written in rhyme.  It opens with the male lead admiring the female lead, and asking her "What would it take for you to be mine?"  She pulls out a long list of "musts" like shopping and frolicking through meadows, helping with dishes etc. of which he thinks is both unreasonable and ridiculous. He then responds with his own "must" list, like going hunting, belching and watching football. She, in turn, will have none of it, to which the couple faces a "stale mate."  How will this couple resolve their differences and live in harmony with one another?  Or is it even possible?  One special book may just have the answers they are looking for.

Excerpt: This is only a small portion of the actual skit, and the entire sections have not been included, but you should get the general idea and feeling of the skit. See the "Notes" for explanations. 

Setting: A woman is standing, as a man walks by. He is obviously impressed with her and walks up to her and initiates conversation.

Him: Stop the presses! You’re simply divine!

What would it take for you to be mine?

Her: (Eyebrows raised in mock fashion, she grins, then whips out a "scroll" type of list and begins reading, over-dramatic and gushy)

You must shop with me from mall to mall.

And bring me flowers for no reason at all.

You must frolic through meadows in your hairy bare feet,

And help me catch butterflies. I think that would be neat.

You must help me with laundry, and washing the dishes.

And you'd pick up after yourself. That's what my fondest wish is.

(Note: ....This continues on in this manner, until the man gets his chance to respond....)

Her: So, what do you think, are you up the challenge?

Can you be mine? Do you think you can manage?

Him: (Sarcastically. Small actions can be made up to do each verse, if desired)

You've got be kidding, please tell me you're joking

Upon hearing that list, I find that I'm choking. (grabs throat and gasps)

I won't be caught shopping from mall to mall,

And, are you serious, flowers for no reason at all?

Frolicking through the meadow is definitely out!

It's obvious you have no clue what us men are about.

(Note: He continues with his tirade, then begins his own list of demands, to which she turns him down. He finally comes to a conclusion)

Him: If that's what it takes to make you my "lass"

Then there's only one solution: I think I'll pass.

(Note: Here is where the couple is at a "stale mate," until they notice a special book, that may help them make sense of it all.)
