  Speaker 2: I mean, I will say it's more than kissing, but

  Speaker 2: less than going all the way. I'm confused.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I auditioned for the role of the Ghosts of Christmas Path,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: so that well.

• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Please do, because I'm really curious.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: In this rendition, Ebenezer Scrooge is much hornier than in
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: the book.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Hornier.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, just picture it. You're visiting him in
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: the middle of the night. Oh man, I don't like
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: where this is going. You will, especially when you're about
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: to be manhandled every night for the next thirty eight
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: consecutive days. What that is the genius that Peter is
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: to this production? No, that doesn't.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: Close my mind when you think about it.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, everybody's going to be talking about this play.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I'm worried about.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: I don't want people to talking about it.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I don't want people.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Talking about me being manhandled. You're treating this like it's
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: some sort of smut film that I'm gonna buy off
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: the black market in a back alley. This is gonna
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: be tastefully done. This is community theater. I mean, has
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: anyone said yes to this? Am I the first call?
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: What about the other ghosts?
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Oh? The other ghosts are all in?
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, I mean they really want to change
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: Scrooge for the better.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you that.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: I don't like to sound of that either. You know.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Can I at least know who's been cast as Ebenezer
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: before I commit?
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Absolutely? Okay, let me see here. I'm just looking through
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: my pain.

  Speaker 2: Oh look at that the director Peter cast himself as Scrooge.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: What You're gonna be in great hands? If you know
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: what I mean.

  Speaker 1: He seems not what I thought I was signing up
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: for when I auditioned.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Oh, you'll get past the cold feet now. Peter has
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: requested that you two start rehearsing tonight around eleven pm.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: He secured the theater and will meet you there. So no, Look,
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: I understand that you're his assistant, but doesn't this sound
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: weird to you?
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Well, remember, directors have different visions for things, and he
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: is a loosely going to be titled fifty Shades of Scrooge.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: You gotta be joking.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: I don't.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know if that's exactly what's going to be
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: on the Marquis. But why would nobody tell me this
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: when I was auditioning. Well, didn't want to give away
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: all his secrets right off the bat, and plus, how
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: else would he be able to tell if the chemistry was,
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: you know, natural, I'm not being manhandled by streets. You
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: can't do that.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: You're sick.
