2 - 2 - DEDICATION I would like to dedicate this play to my sister, Sandy, who has worked as hard (at times, harder) on the plays than I have. God certainly broke the mold when He made you. With love - Mark, the playwright The author wishes to thank members of the first cast: DYLAN SHEPHERD Author TYLER SHEPHERD Rick Compton SHAYNE SHEPHERD Joshua Compton STEVE GALLAGHER Tony Roberts JEANI BRYANT Robin Thomas REAGAN CASSIDY Karen Hayden TABITHA RAFFERTY Barbara Tran RACHEL ALEXANDER Genia Manicure ADRIAN Jonnetta Carnell KIRBY Johnnie Carnell MORGAN Amanda Compton DIRECTOR Nola Faye Herron TYPIST Sandra Roark STORY OF THE PLAY Dylan and Tyler Shepherd, brothers whose arguing finally stopped when they were brought together one Christmas (See the original play, The Shepherds Who Gather ), are back in this sequel. It s five years later and now they are working together on a Christian TV show. Unfortunately, the station has a new owner, Tabitha Rafferty, to whom ratings are more important than people or their priorities. She has little sympathy for Dylan whose wife has recently died leaving him to rear their young son alone. But Christmas is a time of giving. Some unusual gifts given by some unlikely people, including a guilt-ridden student and a reborn Christian singer, make this a very touching and special holiday story.

5 - 5 - ACT I (AT RISE: It is morning, a few days before Christmas. The stage is empty. TYLER and JEANI enter SR talking.) TYLER: (Looks around.) Well, Dylan will be back today. JEANI: Oh, that s right. Well, I know Chris will be relieved. He s dreaded doing Chosen For His Purpose. He keeps telling me, Hey, Jeani, I m only a sports reporter, not a talk show host. (Laughs.) How is Dylan? TYLER: He says he s ready to come back to work. JEANI: This soon? Hmmm... (Thinks.) Well, you know Dylan. He has to be busy. TYLER: After all he s been through, he refuses to take any more time off. JEANI: Dylan s always been one to throw himself into his work. Might really help him, though. He s had a rough year. TYLER: And when he gets back here and sees all these changes at the station, it s going to be rougher for him. JEANI: I know. Then he gets to meet you know who. TYLER: Yeah, Mrs. Tabitha Rafferty. JEANI: Yes! The new owner of WKMT. TYLER: She s one of a kind! JEANI: She s kept everyone on their toes. TYLER: It s been like a three-ring circus around here! I hope things calm down soon. JEANI: Me, too! TYLER: I ve got to get down to the sound stage and prerecord my devotions for the next couple of days before Christmas vacation. Can you help me? JEANI: I d be glad to! Let s go! (THEY exit SL.) (STEVE and REAGAN enter SR.) STEVE: Reagan, here s a list of what Mrs. Rafferty wants done today! (Hands list to REAGAN.)
6 - 6 - REAGAN: (Takes list and reads.) Check sound system, meter readings on all lighting equipment, fix static on microphones and re-arrange setting for Chosen For His Purpose. Is this all? No washing windows? No cleaning out the chimneys? STEVE: Ha! Ha! Cute, Cinderella, real cute! She s serious! REAGAN: How soon does she want this done? STEVE: Yesterday! Is that soon enough? REAGAN: I just had to ask! STEVE: Also, she wants you to contact an engineer and get some blueprints drawn up for the set of Dylan s show. REAGAN: Chosen For His Purpose? The set was just redecorated a few months ago! STEVE: I know. I told her that, but she won t listen! She hears what she wants to hear! Every time that woman comes near me, I know I m in for it. It s Gallagher, I need this, I need that... this needs to be done... and on and on and on. TABITHA: (Enters from HER office USL.) Gallagher! There you are. Listen, I need to see you. Pronto. We have loads of work to do. STEVE: (Wearily.) Oh, all right! REAGAN: (Softly to STEVE.) You hit the nail right on the head, didn t you? STEVE: (To REAGAN.) See what I mean? TABITHA: Let s go. We don t have time for you to chit-chat! Come with me... we ve got a business to run, you know! (THEY exit USL.) (REAGAN starts checking things on the set. DYLAN enters from SR.) DYLAN: Good morning, Reagan! REAGAN: Good morning! How are you? DYLAN: I m here, and I m ready to get back to work! REAGAN: OK, then! Let s do the promo for tonight s show. DYLAN: OK, let me get ready. (Puts microphone on.)
7 - 7 - REAGAN: (Picks up headset.) OK. Camera 3, we re going to do the promo. (To DYLAN.) You ready? (DYLAN nods.) Stand by. Everyone ready? Clear? and Action! (Holds cue card and points to DYLAN.) DYLAN: (Reporter s voice.) Good morning! Join us tonight for our Christmas special at 7:00 p.m. as we take a trip down memory lane, back to the very first show of Chosen For His Purpose. Amazingly, it s been five years since we first went on the air! Our special guests will be gospel recording artist, Rachel Alexander; WKMT s own Tyler Shepherd; and a group of teenagers from our viewing area who won a National Teen Talent Competition sponsored by the Christian Ambassadors Association. So, tune in. And, on behalf of myself and my son, Shayne, I d like to take a moment and thank you all for your prayers, support, and kindness during our time of need. This is Dylan Shepherd. REAGAN: And that s a wrap! Do you need to do it again? DYLAN: I don t think so. (Pauses.) Did it sound all right? REAGAN: Guys! Did you get it? How d it sound? Good, great! (Sets headset down.) Perfect, Dylan. Now all we need to finish are your reunion show interviews, then we can go on a much needed vacation. DYLAN: Vacation? (Removes microphone.) I just got back! REAGAN: Believe me, after today is over you ll gladly take your holiday time off. Trust me. It s been hectic around here the last few days! DYLAN: So I ve heard! I have loads of work to get caught up on. Paperwork, editing, scheduling guests. I could go on, but I don t want to depress myself! REAGAN: Give yourself time. Things will return to normal someday. Keep believing that, OK? DYLAN: OK! Thanks, Reagan. REAGAN: You ve had a hard time. Everyone at the station supports you and has been praying for you. You know that! DYLAN: I know! I really appreciate it!
