FADE IN:

INT. BURGER JOINT - DAY

Beyonce is working behind the counter, looking tired and stressed. Jay-Z walks in, wearing a blonde wig and a burger mascot costume.

JAY-Z: (in a high-pitched voice) Hi, Beyonce, it's me! Your friendly neighborhood burger mascot!

BEYONCE: (surprised) Jay-Z, what are you doing here?

JAY-Z: I'm here to help! I know you've been working so hard lately, and I thought I could take over for you today.

BEYONCE: (skeptical) You're going to pretend to be me?

JAY-Z: (confidently) Absolutely. I've been studying your every move, and I know I can do this.

Beyonce looks at him, considering his offer.

CUT TO:

INT. BURGER JOINT - LATER

Jay-Z is struggling to keep up with the pace of the burger joint. He's making a mess, spilling food all over himself and the customers.

JAY-Z: (frustrated) This is harder than it looks!

Beyonce watches from a distance, amused.

BEYONCE: (to herself) I knew this was a bad idea.

Suddenly, a group of rowdy teenagers walk in.

TEENAGER 1: (pointing at Jay-Z) Hey, look! It's the burger mascot!

TEENAGER 2: (laughing) Let's mess with him!

The teenagers start throwing food at Jay-Z, who is unable to defend himself due to the restrictive costume.

JAY-Z: (pleadingly) Beyonce, help me!

Beyonce steps in and puts a stop to the chaos.

BEYONCE: (firmly) That's enough! You're not welcome here if you're going to behave like that.

The teenagers leave, and Jay-Z looks at Beyonce gratefully.

JAY-Z: (sincerely) Thank you, Beyonce. I couldn't have done it without you.

BEYONCE: (smiling) I know.

CUT TO:

INT. JASON, ALEX, AND TYSON'S APARTMENT - LATER

Beyonce enters the apartment, looking relieved.

JASON: (concerned) Hey, are you okay?

BEYONCE: (exhausted) I'm fine. I just had the longest day ever.

TYSON: (excitedly) So, how was Jay-Z as a burger mascot?

Beyonce looks at him, trying not to laugh.

BEYONCE: (smiling) Let's just say he's better at being a rapper than a burger flipper.

The group bursts out laughing, and the camera zooms out as they continue to joke and tease each other.

FADE OUT.
