  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, what I mean? Just picture it. You're visiting
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: him in the middle of the night. Oh man, I
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: don't like where this is going. You will, especially when

  Speaker 2: you're about to be manhandled every night for the next
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: thirty eight consecutive days. What that is The genius that
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Peter is to this production, No, close my mind when
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: you think about it. I mean, everybody's gonna be talking
• 2:43

• 2:46
  Speaker 2: don't want people talking about it.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I don't want people talking about me being manhandled.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: You're treating this like it's some sort of smut film
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: that I'm gonna buy off the black market in a
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: back alley. This is gonna be tastefully done. This is
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: community theater.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, has.

• 3:17
  Speaker 1: before I commit?
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Absolutely? Okay, let me see here. I'm just looking through
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: my pain. Oh look at that the director Peter cast
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: himself as Scrooge. What You're going to be in great hands,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: if you know what I mean.

• 3:47

  Speaker 1: But why would nobody tell me this when I was auditioning.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Didn't want to give away all his secrets right off
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: the bat, And plus how else would he be able
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: to tell if the chemistry was, you know, natural.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: I'm not being manhandled by screws.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: You can't do that.
