Skit on praying boldly and expectantly. A handful of students have been invited to the college president's home. He sincerely wants to do whatever he can to help each of them. One doesn't believe him, but others are more bold in taking him up on it.

Asking by Curtis Chang

Skit on bold prayer

Guest 1 rings bell

PD: Ah, hello, I’m so glad you could come. I’ve been expecting you.

G1: Thanks for inviting me, President Dibiaggio. It is a honor to have you
go through all the trouble, sir.

PD: Nonesense! I have these receptions because I love spending time with
students. And call me John.

G1: Whatever you say, President Dibiaggio, uh I mean John. Uh, am I the
only one here? Did I come here too early? Oh, I’m sorry….

PD: Not to worry, you are the first one here, but it just means we can get
to know each other. Can I get you anything? Is there anything I can help
you with?

G1: Oh, no I’m fine, sir, thank you.

PD: Nothing? How about something to eat? We have quite a spread here.

G1: Oh no, thank you, President Dibiaggio, I got myself dinner already. I
was really quite lucky tonite at McPhie—the wait was only 45 minutes!

PD: Well, how about something to drink at least?

G1: No, no, I’m fine.

PD: Are you quite sure? Please don’t hesitate to ask for anything. I’ve
got quite a bit prepared.

G1: Well, if it wouldn’t be that much trouble, I mean, if you already are
headed that way, if you wouldn’t mind, could I have a …. glass of water?

PD: Glass of water? That’s it? Ok, wait here.
Gives him glass of water.

G2 Rings Doorbell.

PD: Welcome, good to see you here.

G2: Thank you, I was really looking forward to this, President Dibiaggio.
PD: Please, call me John. And can I get you anything? Anything at all.

G2: Oh well, thank you John. Hmmm, well I am a bit thristy. You know,
to tell you the truth, I’ve always wondered what Dom Perignon would taste
like. I’ve heard you’ve got quite a champagne collection, could I try
some? Preferably 1957—I heard it was a good year.

PD: Well, let me check.
PD goes off to side.

G1 (shocked): You can’t do that? That’s so rude.
G2: Well, he said anything, didn’t he?

PD returns with bottle.

G3 rings bell: Hello Pres! Its great to be here.
PD: Anything I can get you?

G3: Well, my computer crashed today and I’ve got a paper due tomorrow. In
fact, I wasn’t even planning to come? Anything you can do?

PD: Well, let me check.

G1: What do you mean? What could he do about your computer? He’s not a
computer repairman!

PD comes back with laptop: Well, here you can use my laptop tonight.
Actually you can use my office over here. Its Pentium 200 Mhz, 5 G Hard
drive, and a mini laser printer built in. I hope that will do.

G4 rings bell: Hey John!

PD: Thanks for coming. How are you?

G4: Not great. Got back my chem test today and was graded harshly. Really
unfair, I had one answer right except for a small notation and he gave me 0
credit. Say, do you think you could speak to him?

PD: DeWald?

G4: Yea, how’d you know?

PD: Listen, wait here, I’ll make some calls.

G1: This is ridiculous. You’re not supposed to talk to Pres. Dibiaggio
about your chemistry test!

PD is in background chewing DeWald out. He comes back with cell. phone:
Its all taken care of. You got full credit. And Prof. DeWald would like to
speak to you.

G4 listen for a while: Oh, well, that’s all right. I forgive you, Prof.
DeWald…. yea, hey I understand, you’ve had a rough day… we all feel
like tempted to take out our frustration on people below us… but you
should try harder next time….

G5 enters without ringing bell. Enters rubbing neck: Hey John! What’s up?

PD: Not much. Hey you don’t look so hot? What’s the matter?

G5: Woke up with a stiff neck. Slept wrong. Hey, listen, I could really
use a massage.

PD: Sure, hey, why don’t you lie down here.
Starts giving him a massage.

G1: This is ridiculous! This is outrageous!
Throws down cup and storms out.
