There are two issues here: 1) It may be sci-fi but if it's too far-fetched, it's not relatable, and 2) if the script is designated as a comedy, it has to make the reader laugh. In my opinion, this excerpt fails on both counts. Is it fixable? Possibly but a rethink will be necessary, perhaps by making the premise clear from the outset and simplify the direction of the narrative so it's easy to follow.
