The Prime Creator of This Earth
24x18 in
28 June, 2021 Open on NSW Police Commissioner Mick Fuller standing behind a podium for the daily COVID-19 press conference. His tired eyes betray what he hopes viewers can’t tell: a guy who’s sick of this shit already. It’s day two of lockdown.
He reviews his notes as the journalists quiet down.
Fuller: Unbelievably two men were sunbaking naked on a beach on the south coast. They were startled by a deer, ran into the national forest and got lost. SES helicopters were deployed to rescue them.
Fuller: A 30-year-old man wearing only a backpack was located-
Man: -I have a question for you.
Startled, Fuller looks up. A long-haired man pushes past security.
Man: Did you receive my notice of cease and desist?
Fuller: State your crime.
Man: I’ve captured everything. I’ve captured this entire firm.
The man waves a blank piece of paper. Fuller looks nervous.
Man: I am The Prime Creator of this Earth. I am THE Prime Creator. I AM GOD. All these lies, deceits and depictions that have been perpetrated - you are all protected and saved under my laws.
Police officers begin wrestling with the Prime Creator of this Earth. He fights back while yelling,
Man: Are your laws above my laws? There are no laws above my laws!

I write scripts for a living. I literally transcribed this from a newsclip.
This entire scene happened at the second press conference of lockdown. If I showed this script to a client I would be fired immediately.
