Kath from Afterlife

 

Kath from Afterlife

Kath from Afterlife was presented as a really annoying character that got on people’s nerves quite often. She had a voice that was meant to be very annoying as well. She also was portrayed as being very desperate. Eventually, there was an episode where she became even more annoying. Those around her could not stand it anymore and planned to get revenge upon her once and for all. The staff that she worked with at the newspaper wanted to come up with a plan that would embarrass her as much as they possibly could.

There was a holiday show coming up where the whole town would be there. There would be various acts, skits and games that would take place. Kath was dressed in one of her tight fitting skirt suits. She was trying to flirt and show off, but was still annoying to almost everyone she came in contact with her. She got up and started to do a terrible comedy routine based on her favourite comedians. It was greeted with silence and then yawns. It was clear that she was about to get the hook. People then started to boo and heckle. People started to yell at her saying that she was not funny.

Some of her colleagues from the paper then got up on stage and tried to “save” her act. Ricky Gervais’ character, who Kath was always at odds with was one of the first. He said,” No, that is not funny, but this most certainly is.” With that he pulled out a container of gravy. Kath looked down at it and then up at him. “No, no, you wouldn’t dare,” she told him. He smiled and turned to the crowd. They cheered for him to do it. Her eyes widened. He then reached over and began pouring the gravy right over her head. She made a funny, shocked face as gravy was dumped down over her head, face, glasses and neck. The audience cheered. Gravy dripped down Kath’s glasses, nose, chin and neck. She crossed her arms and glared.

He then took a shepherd’s pie and said, “If you liked that, you are going to love this.” He took the large, sloppy, gloppy shepherd’s pie and raised it over Kath’s head. She froze as he moved it closer and pushed it over into her face and then the top of her head. The thick pie smushed out and soon stuck all over Kath. Large peas and carrots rolled down her face and glasses. Bits of meat stuck to her collar and oozed down her shirt and over her body. Blobs of mashed potato stuck to her face and hair. A large blob of the mess dripped from her nose. Everyone was roaring with laughter at this point.

He then took out a container filled with spaghetti. He showed it to her. “You would not dump spaghetti on me?,” she said. “Oh, anything for a laugh,” he said. He then lifted the container and dumped the stodgy mess all over Kath. He pushed it down on the top of her head. Spaghetti stuck to her hair and glasses. Strands of it dangled and fell from her face. She rolled her eyes and made a disgusted face.

“See now, this is comedy,” he teased. He then took out some coleslaw. He made a silly face and took a bow as before beginning to dump the disgusting coleslaw over Kath’s head. Bits of the disgusting substance fell down over her and landed on her head, glasses and even on the mark on her neck. Mounds of it stuck to her shoulders. It smelled hideous. Kath scrunched up her face and blushed. She was embarrassed beyond belief.

The audience stood up and cheered. She was actually surprised. Kath was very pleased by this. She bowed and smiled. She actually looked a bit proud. It was not a total loss for her. She actually was voted as the best act by everyone at the end of the evening.
