What could improve this script?

Hey!
I'm pretty new with script writing.
I usually think up a story and wing it. Never really wrote up a script in my life. Is there anyway I can improve in this script's story and format? Below is a script I'm going to film.

Haha this is pretty damn funny. The only thing that jumps out is this part:

I would suggest simply putting "Fade to black" or "cut to black", there is no need to add a "black out".
