and the writers wrote lines
for the soap opera star returned
from the dead as the
seamstress stitched her head back on
and the makeup artist blushed
away her pale.
throwing her cape off
she composed herself
took one last look at her lines
and hit the stage (lights camera action)
just in time to say
I never loved you before the accident
either....

But how do you know they're acting when there's no stage? I liked this.

Funny
I stopped watching soap operas a long time ago.  They were already unrealistic, but got even worse it seems.
