Spelling Contest

Contestants have numbers on their shirts and the judges have badges to distinguish them from the contestants. Need a list of spelling words, toy guns (or hand if necessary), and a trophy. There are two judges and four contestants. Judge #1 asks are you ready for the annual spelling contest. The contestants say yes and Judge #2 tells them good luck and let's begin. The first contestant steps forward misses the word and is shot by the judge. The second contestant steps forward spells the word, and the judges confer, answering right. The third contestant spells the word wrong and is shot. Contestant #4 comes forward and spells his word, the judges confer, say he is wrong and one raises the gun to shoot him. Contestant #4 tells the judge to wait, he is sure the word is spelled right. The judges confer again, say the contestant is right and they are wrong, and shoot themselves. Contestants #2 and #4 say that they guess that means they both win and walk off together with the trophy.
