Eye Drops script

GK: Here's an idea for Earth Week…You can save energy by using eye drops from your local optometrist (DRIP DRIP) to dilate your pupils (PUPILS OPENING WIDE) to let in more light so you can do everything in dim light. When fully dilated you can even drive with your headlights off (ALMOST TRAFFIC ACCIDENT) and do your yard work at night (LAWN MOWER) when it's not as hot. And no more need for a light bulb inside your refrigerator. (FRIDGE OPENS) just tilt your head back and open up your eyes. Remember: there's plenty of light if you process it right. An energy-saving tip for Earth Week.
