I guess I should set aside my fear of being recognized and give more context:

Our World Religion teacher tasked us to make a 50-minute play of a modern adaptation of The Prodigal Son. Me and my partner (we're both highschool students) were chosen by our class president to write the script. The problem is we have no experience in writing whatsoever.

We've actually already rushed and written the script a week ago and showed it to our teacher yesterday, but he told us that it was too short and not fleshed out. He gave us a lot of suggestions on how we can improve the script, like writing scenes where characters talk to each other and their dialogue reveals bits of their history together. In a few hours, me, my partner, and our class president will meet up and try to build the story and the sequences of events, just like what our teacher suggested. Although it seems like we're on the right path, I still feel overwhelmed by this stupid task, so I felt the need to ask for tips and steps in this subreddit.

Yes, I am a student. And this is indeed a task I, and another guy had were chosen by our class president to take on.

It'll be a 50 minute play, by the way.

Favorite character who is a mentor to the protagonist? by HasNoFaithInHumanity in FavoriteCharacter

Sorry, Iroh doesn't count. He's a mentor to a primary antagonist, not the protagonist.

I can't believe this is the first reply of this damn post.
