Not So Evil After All

 Title: "Not So Evil After All"

Characters:

  • Dr. Menace – The “villain,” a scientist with grand schemes but questionable execution.
  • Captain Justice – The overenthusiastic, righteous hero.
  • Minion Carl – Dr. Menace’s loyal but dimwitted assistant.
  • TV Reporter – Covering the breaking news.

Scene: A warehouse lair, complete with flashing monitors and bubbling potions. Dr. Menace paces dramatically.

Dr. Menace: (evil laugh) At last! My greatest invention is complete! The world shall witness my genius!

Minion Carl: (claps) Oooo, is it a death ray? A mind-control device?

Dr. Menace: No, Carl. It’s something far more sinister… A traffic-optimizing AI that will reroute all vehicles to minimize congestion!

Minion Carl: …So people will get home faster?

Dr. Menace: EXACTLY! No more waiting in traffic, no more frustration. Chaos!

Minion Carl: Uh, boss, that kinda sounds… nice.

Dr. Menace: (dramatic sigh) Oh, Carl. They’ll never see it coming. The world will never be the same!

(Suddenly, Captain Justice bursts in through the skylight, landing with an over-the-top pose.)

Captain Justice: Halt, evildoer! Your reign of terror ends now!

Dr. Menace: (startled) Ahh! Use the door, man!

Captain Justice: (ignoring him) I’ve heard of your latest scheme, and I won’t let you—wait. What… what exactly are you doing?

Dr. Menace: I’m revolutionizing traffic flow! Imagine a world where no one’s late for work, no honking, no road rage!

Captain Justice: (confused) That’s… That’s actually kind of—wait, no! You’re up to something! There has to be an evil twist!

Dr. Menace: (scoffs) Oh yes, Captain Justice. The horror! People will experience efficiency! Society will be organized! Mwahaha!

Captain Justice: (pulling out handcuffs) You won’t trick me! I’m taking you in!

(Just then, a TV Reporter enters, microphone in hand.)

TV Reporter: Breaking news! Dr. Menace’s AI has just reduced citywide congestion by 82%. Public approval is at an all-time high!

Captain Justice: (lowering handcuffs) …Wait, what?

Minion Carl: Boss, I think you’re… a hero.

Dr. Menace: (dramatic sigh) Curse my brilliance.

(Beat.)

Captain Justice: I don’t know what to do with my hands now.

Dr. Menace: Want me to… jaywalk or something?

Captain Justice: That'll do.

(Dr. Menace steps off the sidewalk. Sirens blare.)

Captain Justice: Justice is served.

(Blackout.)

Glad you liked it! 😆 If you ever want another one—maybe a villain who just wants to open a peaceful cat café but keeps getting mistaken for a mastermind—I’m here for it!
