Shoulder Angel (sketch)

*You may have been looking for another page about a certain **Shoulder Angel**. If you were, you might be able to find the right page here.*

Bank robbers have a conscience too.

The voice in your head that tells you to do good takes a literal form as the Shoulder Angel. Watch as Matt does all that he can to stop evil from prospering.

## Plot

Outside a bank, a man named John (Jason Gray) stands outside, greeting a bank worker (Jeremy Warner) as he leaves for the night. John is revealed to be a bank robber as he puts a mask on, just before an angel (Matt Meese) shows up. He introduces himself as John's Shoulder Angel, before climbing onto John's shoulder, and trying to convince him not to go through with the plan. Another robber named Billy shows up, and after he shows signs of reluctance to rob the bank, the Angel tries to transfer himself from John's shoulder to Billy's, but after succeeding, he is unable to convince Billy to back out, as he finds the courage to do it.

Billy then shows John blueprints of the bank to formulate a plan, and the Angel tries to take it from them, but fails. A third robber named Little Tim (James Perry) shows up, and as John gives him the blueprints, the Angel tries to get onto Little Tim's shoulder, and after succeeding, tries to get him to back out, but once again fails. Once it's clear that the three men are not backing out, the Angel resorts to one last trick. He snaps his fingers, and instantly, the robbers are called by their mothers, forcing them to call off the heist as the sketch ends.
