I couldn’t get this idea out of my head, and since I doubt Walmart will like this script idea for an ad, I thought I’d share it here.
INT. – WALMART – DAY
SERIES OF SHOTS:
Walmart employees help customers…
Customers shop for various goods…
No one is wearing masks…
VOICEOVER: In these troubling times, we know that being prepared for life’s challenges is important…

Closeup on a sign reading: LIMIT TWO PER CUSTOMER
VOICEOVER (CONT’D) : We know that you value our low prices and friendly customer service…
SERIES OF SHOTS:
People are not staying six feet from each other…
A man goes out of his way to get in another customer’s space to grab a bag of marshmallows…
A child stands too close to a coughing old woman…
VOICEOVER (CONT’D) : And that’s why we at Walmart welcome the coming judgement of Christ that is assured by the Coronavirus…
SERIES OF SHOTS:
A store clerk offers a woman at a register a pamphlet…
CLOSEUP on the pamphlet, reading: HEAVEN, HELL, AND YOU.
The woman smiles and nods…
She and the store clerk discuss the pamphlet indistinctly and jovially…

SERIES OF SHOTS:
A woman and her children exit the store…
The woman smiles at the camera while holding her infant…
SUPERIMPOSE AND VOICEOVER: Walmart: Do not fear death, for the Lord’s righteous judgement is upon us.
