Linda: We need an actor,Steven.We need a good actor to star
in the new show with Mary Beth.
Steven:What abut this one?I worked with him last year.'
He's good.
Linda: No.His hair's too long.
Steven:He can cut his hair.
Linda: He's wrong for the part.
Steven:Linda,we have to pick an actor.
We're going to start work next week.
How about this one?He has a lot of experience.
Linda: Mmmm...no,I'm sorry,Steven.But this is an important role.And WEFL need better ratings.We have to pick
the right actor.
Stecen:I understand.Linda,I want you to think about these two again.I know both of them.They're excellent actors.
Linda: I like the older one.
Steven:This one.
Linda: Yes,because the actor has to be older than Mary Beth, and he has to be taller than she is.
Steven:Nope.He's too short.He's an inch shorter.
Linda: Then he's not right for the role.
Steven:The last one.I guess he's better.
Linda: Ummm...I don't know.
Linda: I like him.
Steven:Jeff Bennett.
Linda: Why not?I think he's handsome.And he's tall.
He's taller than Mary Beth.He has it all.
Steven:Well,he doesn't have much experience.
Mike: Hi,Linda,Steven.
Linda: Oh,hi,Mike.You two are going to be working together. Steven's the director on our new show.
Mike: "Murder at Midnight"?Great.I'm going to be the cameraman on that.
Steven:Good.
Linda: Mike,we can't decide.Which one do you like better? Mike: For which role?
Linda: The starring role.
Mike: Well,this guy looks bigger.
Linda: Bigger?You mean heavier?
Mike: Yeah.He's too fat.
Linda: Then you like this actor better.
Mike: Right.I know this guy.He's good actor.I know his work. See those eyes?It's the eyes that show emotion.
His face is perfect for television.
Steven:Well.Thanks for the advice.
Mike: Anytime.See you later.
Linda: Thanks,Mike.
Steven:So,we have two choices.What do you think?
Linda: I'd like to meet Jeff Bennett.Then we can make
a decision.

But he has everything else.

Linda: I think he's handsome.The female viewers are going
to love him.
Steven:I agree.He's good-looking.
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
Jeff: Oh.Sure.I love questions.Great.
Steven:Can you sing,Jeff?
Jeff: Can I sing?I didn't know this show had any singing. Steven:It doesn't.I just want to know about your experience. Jeff: Oh,yeah,I can sing.I took five years of voice lessons. Linda: He does have a good voice.
Steven:Can you dance?
Jeff: Yes.I was in a musical show last summer.
Steven:Are you more interested in theater or in television? Jeff: I'm more interested in television.Definitely.
Steven:Jeff,do you have more experience in television or
in theater?
Jeff: Well.I have more experience in theater.But I did a
TV show for KNEB.
Steven:In Los Angeles?
Jeff: Yes.I lived in Los Angeles,oh,two years ago.
I didn't want to stay there.I like New York better.
It's more exciting than Los Angeles.
Linda: I know he doesn't have much experience.
But he has everything else.He's more energetic,
he's more intelligent,he's more talented.
Steven:And he's more nervous.Linda,I think we're talking
a chance on this guy.
Linda: I disagree.Oh,Steven,just look at that face!He's more photogenic than any of the other actors.
Steven:All right...All right.
Linda: What do you think of Stamford?
Jeff: I love Stamford.I grew up here,you know.
Steven:No,I didn't that now.How would you compare New
York with Stamford?
Jeff: Well,New York is more interesting,but it's also
more expensive,more crowed.When you're trying
to sleep,you find out it's much noisier.
Stamford is much more beautiful than New York.
And the people are much friendlier.
Steven:Well,I hope you think Linda and I are friendly too, since we're going to be working together.
Linda: You have the role,Jeff.Welcome to WEFL.
Jeff: Terrific!I can't wait to get started!

Charles:Oh,no.I like to do a movie now and then,just for
a change.But I'm happy to be here in Stamford.Then I can
sleep in my own bed every night.
Mike:I see you like the food here too.
Charles:You auditioned for a mivie in New York,didn'd you?
What happened with that?I thought the part was yours.

Mary Beth:Yhe truth is,I'm really disappointed about that movie. The role was exactly right for me...Right now I have this
new television show to work on.And we have a new actor working with us--Jeff Bennett.It's his first starring role.I know how
to do my role,but maybe he's going to need help with his.Maybe
I can give him some advice.I think he's a nice guy.I hope he's
a success.。
