MAN: A mans' got to have choices; A mans' got to have a little variety.
WOMAN: (dejected) What do you mean variety? You want someone else?
MAN: It's nothing personal, Juanita. It's not you. It's me. I'm beginning to hunger for something a little different, that's all.
WOMAN: (tearing up) Who is it, Jose? Who do you hunger for?
MAN: (meekly) I want..., (with confidence) El Chico.
WOMAN: Eeeeek! (regaining her composure) Jose! You want another man?
MAN: No, woman! I want one of those new Presidente Enchilada's from El Chico's Mexican restaurant. They have California Wrap Carnitas stuffed with roast pork, pico de gallo, and cascabel; Chicken and Mushroom enchiladas, Fajita meat enchiladas, Enchiladas Verde, Stacked Enchiladas, and the one I really crave, the new shrimp enchilada smothered in their spicy tomatillo green chile sauce.
ANNCR: Looking for a little variety. Then come on down to El Chico and savor one of our six new Presidente Enchiladas, wrapped in our own hand-dipped tortillas and stuffed with only the highest quality meats and produce for fifty years.
MAN: (chewing food) Mmmm, this new Shrimp Enchilada is so good, Thanks for bringing me to El Chico, Honey.
WOMAN: (sternly) You just keep those "variety" thoughts to food or else you'll be thinking shrimp.

Title: DESCRIPTION :60
SFX: Background noise of restaurant.
Waiter: May I take your order?
Customer: Yes. How are the enchiladas here?

ANNCR: Looking for something a little different? Then try the new Presidente Enchilada menu from El Chico's Mexican restaurant. We're stuffing our hand-made tortillas with a variety of delicious fillings like shrimp, fajita, chicken and mushroom, juicy roast pork, and fresh vegetables; then smothering each in a spicy tomatillo green chile sauce and serve it piping hot to you.
Waiter: And then of course there's the enchilada wrapped in ground corn...
ANNCR: So if you're looking for a little variety, come in to El Chico's and try the new Presidente Enchilada menu. Because no one knows fresh Tex-Mex like El Chico.

Title: VARIETY VILLAGE :60
SFX: Background noise of restaurant
Waiter: Welcome to Variety Village where we specialize in every kind of food imaginable. What part of the world will it be today?
Customer: I'm really craving Mexican food. What do you recommend?
Waiter: That would be our very own special enchilada dinner plate.
Customer: Sounds good. What comes with that?
Waiter: Our special enchilada.
Customer: One enchilada?
Waiter: (sheepishly) Yes sir, the whole enchilada.
Customer: That's it? What makes it so special?
Waiter: (proudly) Our meat blend.
Customer: Blend?
Waiter: Yes sir. A mix of the very finest cuts of scrap left over from our processed beef, chicken, pork, etc...
Customer: Etc.?
Waiter: At Variety Village, we use the same ground meat for the American hamburgers as we do for the Italian meatballs, the Chinese egg rolls, and the Mexican enchiladas. It's a wonderful marketing ploy.
ANNCR: Tired of restaurants that "specialize" in everything? Then come to El Chico's Mexican Restaurant where the only thing we specialize in is great Mexican food. For over fifty years we've hand rolled our tortillas fresh everyday, and we use only the highest quality meats, produce, herbs and spices so that you can enjoy the very best Mexican food possible.
Customer: (whispering) What exactly is.. Etc.?
(pause)
Waiter: (whispering) Emu. It's really good.
