A New York 'Scrooge' named Satan is about to be 'delivered' from his vain life of American greed...and distancing.

It's holiday-time in the USA, and a yuppie-producer of American holiday-season programming named Satan is planning special Christmastime media events for American consumers to hype capital/ratings and become fatter and therefore highlight the 'dilution' of metaphysics into real fortune.



This guy Satan is real New York Scrooge. He's a nerdy calculator of capitalism highways and a diamond aficionado, and he loves to make lemonade out of lemons from Wall Street. However, this Satan-Scrooge nerdy fat-cat of New York is about to get a real taste of metaphysical change during this Christmas season in the great USA.



SATAN ('Scrooge'): I've been an excellence-executive of American media-programming, and I've no intent to change my rep!



Suddenly, 'Scrooge' (Satan) wakes up one morning and sees himself in the mirror on the day of a major corporate media event/premiere involving the presentation of his network's Christmas programming on Netflix, and he has to get there quick, but in the mirror, Satan/Scrooge realizes he's been 'transformed' into a (rather attractive!) woman. He gasped quickly and grabs some fresh Vodka to 'wake up' and turn back into a man, but he finds he's still a woman after all, and well, nothing can be done now. Scrooge must attend the Netflix premiere as a woman, the woman he's been transformed into, and he tells the company, "I'm Satan's cousin from Europe."



Satan ('Scrooge') has no idea what the hell is going on now in good old New York, but 3 special specters/ghosts visit him during his office-hours in the city and explain he's a 'woman' now because he's to undergo a real change or shift in thinking because these 3 ghosts will tell him about all his regrets and adventure-errors in ethics in his rather 'fast' life. The 3 ghosts are of his past, present, and future, and they tell this miser-of-greed in New York that his past was cluttered by vain ambition, his present by handed-down vanities, and his future will be clouded by the 'black fog' of doom!



SATAN ('Scrooge'): Ladies and gentlemen, I woke from my repentance-vision and seek to deliver a Christmas dream to NY!



Well, that's the old tale of Scrooge (Satan) in tried New York. He's become a man of turn and change, and it's all because of a transformation in spirit, and it's all possible in New York, in the USA, where dreams, though sometimes deferred, can nevertheless deliver a special 'magic' dose of dreams.
