Jacob: “I’ve got a favorite son, and it’s Joseph! Look at this fabulous coat I made him!”
Brothers: “Great, just what we needed. A coat that screams ‘Daddy loves me more!’”
Joseph: “Hey guys, I had a dream where you all bowed down to me! Isn’t that awesome?”
Brothers: “No, it’s not awesome. It’s infuriating! Let’s throw him in a pit!”
Joseph: “Wait, what? You’re not serious, right? I mean, I just got this fabulous coat!”
Brothers: “Too late! Into the pit you go! No more dreams of grandeur!”
Joseph: “This is not what I meant by ‘getting ahead’!”
Brothers: “Look! Here comes a caravan! Let’s sell him as a slave instead!”
Joseph: “Great, just what I wanted! A one-way ticket to Egypt!”
Potiphar: “Welcome to my house, Joseph! Let’s see how you do as a slave.”
Joseph: “I might be a slave, but at least I’m a good-looking one!”
Potiphar’s Wife: “Oh, Joseph, you’re so handsome! How about a little… ‘private time’?”
Joseph: “No thanks! I’m not into workplace romances, especially with my boss’s wife!”
Potiphar’s Wife: “Fine, I’ll just accuse you of attempted seduction!”
Joseph: “This is not how I pictured my career taking off!”
Scene Change: Prison
Joseph: “Well, this is just great. I’m in prison, but at least I can interpret dreams!”
Prisoner #1: “I had a dream about three baskets of bread…”

Prisoner #2: “And I had a dream about grapes…”
Joseph: “You’ll be restored to your position! Good luck with that!”
Scene Change: Two Years Later
Pharaoh: “I had a weird dream about cows and grain. Someone help!”
Prisoner #2: “I know a guy! His name is Joseph!”

Pharaoh: “You’re my new second-in-command! Let’s save some grain!”
Scene Change: Famine
Brothers: “We’re starving! Let’s go to Egypt and beg for food!”
Joseph: “Look who’s back! Time to test them!”
Brothers: “We’re here for food, please!”
Joseph: “You’re spies! Into prison you go!”
Brothers: “No, we’re not! We’re just really hungry!”
Joseph: “Let’s see if you’re really sorry for selling me. I’ll keep one of you here!”
Brothers: “This is a nightmare! We’re so sorry!”
Joseph: “Finally! You’ve admitted it! Now go get Dad!”
Scene Change: Family Reunion
Jacob: “Joseph, is it really you? I thought I lost you forever!”
