Getting Ready - Radio PSA text script

MUSIC UP AND UNDER THROUGHOUT

SFX:     RUNNING ON A TREADMILL
 
WIFE:  Jack, you got the treadmill working!
 
JACK (Puffing):  Yeah, I added some oil, took off the cobwebs.
 
WIFE:   Don't tell me, you're thinking about that half marathon.
 
JACK:   Maybe. First I gotta lose a few pounds.
 
WIFE:   You know, I've been getting ready for something, too. See this stack of paperwork?   Look, I can lift it with one arm.  
 
JACK:   Oooh. Impressive. What's in there?
 
WIFE:   Last year’s taxes. I got out the file to help us get ready for this year. We’ve had some changes.
 
JACK:   Yeah, like our income went down. And now Jack Junior has arrived…
 
WIFE:   According to IRS.gov, we can claim him as an exception and deduct his daycare expenses.  I couldn’t believe all the digital tax tools and information they have there, like this list of everything we need to get our taxes done right. 

SFX:   TREADMILL BREAKING
 
JACK:   So….any chance we'll be getting a refund?
 
ANNCR:   From figuring out deductions to completing your return, irs.gov. It’s the best tax tip of all.
