About this script
A parcel arrives for someone who does not live there, and the sender is mysterious. twelve messages, Android Messages style, about 35 seconds as a video, and Quin kicks it off with "There is a parcel for Mr Odd at my address.". Quin and Courier carry the whole script, which fits the Free plan's two-person limit, and every one of them is made up. Android Messages is a Standard plan look, so a Free account cannot open this sample.
Pacing it beat by beat
Messages one and two, "There is a parcel for Mr Odd at my address." then "It is addressed to number 9.", set the scene. Message 1 is the longest (10 words): "There is a parcel for Mr Odd at my address.". Give it room.
The turn begins at message 10, "It is labelled 'Do not open'.". Move quickly through "I am opening it.", then hold "Please do not." for two seconds. Three of twelve lines ask a question.
Making the video
The button below sends The Wrong Delivery to the editor, set to Android Messages. Android Messages comes with typing dots, read marks and reactions in the editor, but not an online status. Show typing dots just before the last bubble.
Free plan: the first four messages only, ending at "Mr Odd lives at number 9.". The other eight need a paid plan. Caption it as a fictional chat.
Part two hook
inside is a smaller parcel, with a larger one inside that. That is the next episode. Let "Please do not." be the last thing viewers see, and mention Part 2 in the caption.
Tips
- Say "There is a parcel for Mr Odd at my address." out loud at normal speed and trim it if you stumble.
- Keep Courier's "Please do not." on screen for two seconds before the ending card.
- Give Quin and Courier fresh invented names; the mystery story then belongs to you.
- Publish the next mystery episode soon; a gap of more than two days costs viewers.
- Place "It is addressed to number 9." on its own for a full second after the opener.
