INT. The Office
Tragedy: Hey, everyone! Happy New Year!
(He starts singing Auld Lang Syne. All the office members look away and pretend to be engrossed in their work)
Tragedy, still smiling: Well, that's OK, then. I'll just, uh, go into my office and...work on the festivities!
CUT TO INDIVIDUAL SHOT OF BETSY
Betsy: Every New Year, Tragedy will come in all festive, and then he'll retreat to his office.
CUT TO THE OFFICE
Sam, grinning: Hey, Betsy, what do you think Tragedy's got planned this year?
CUT TO INDIVIDUAL SHOT OF J
J: Once a year, Tragedy is quiet for half a day. He'll say "HAPPY NEAR YEAR!" to everyone in the morning, and then slink off all secretive. Because he's got a surprise ready for everyone. It's not exactly a surprise. He does the same thing every year.
CUT TO THE OFFICE
Snicket, leans over to Sam: What are you saying about Tragedy?
CUT TO INDIVIDUAL SHOT OF SAM
Pan: Every year, Tragedy repaints the office. He and Snicket get a real kick out of it. That is, when Snicket's sure it's not a prank Kobolos or Sam is pulling.
CUT TO INDIVIDUAL SHOT OF J
J: Why do I let him do it? [she shrugs] There's really nothing I can do. Swans calls and complains about it every year but...
CUT TO THE OFFICE
Alice [voice over]: The New Year is a very depressing day for most people in the office.
Char: So, Kyle, do you have any plans tonight?
Kyle [not looking up from his computer] Yup.
Char: Ok. Cool, cool.
[silence]
Char: So, do you want to do something tonight? Um, with me?
Kyle: Uhhh...No, not really.
Kyle [voice over]: I learned that there's no difference between being nice to Char or being mean to her because she really can't tell.
CUT TO INDIVIDUAL SHOT OF KYLE
Kyle: New Year...not a good day for me.
CUT TO THE OFFICE
Sam: So. You and Roy doing anything tonight?
Betsy: Aah...I'm not really sure...[she continues typing]
Snicket: Psst. Sam.
Sam: [ignores Snicket]
Snicket: Psst. Sam.
Sam: Uh, Betsy, can you give me a pen? Thanks.
Snicket: PSST. SAM.
Snicket: [voice over] I am so excited to see what Tragedy is going to do this year.
INDIVIDUAL SHOT OF SNICKET
Snicket: It always surprises me.
