Unit 1 Script 1
Talia: It's all so incredible, Mom. I’m working on a story about one of the national soccer players, Nick Crawford… No, that's the thing. He knows that one of his teammates has framed him. And I believe he's innocent.
Talia: Look, Mom, I have to go. I’II call you tomorrow, OK? Bye. Yes, yes, me, too. Bye. Nick:Hi.I came as soon as I could.What’s up?
Talia:I’ve been thinking about this all day…. Now tell me, again:When and how did you meet this Jackie Baker woman?
Nick:I’ve already told you.She came up to me at the juice bar.We set up a meeting. Talia:Right.At her office.Except you never went up to her office.
Nick:Right, so she meets me in the lobby, we shake hands , and she takes me to lunch. Talia:Yes, to a little place around the corner, as I recaII.
Nick:Right. And then she asks me to endorse a new pair of shoes. Talia:Yeah. You told me they’re called Kicks.
Nick:Right. And she explains that I’ll have to wear the shoes when I play. And the company will use my name in the ads.
Talia:OK. Can you think of anything else?
Nick:Well, we did talk about an idea for a Kicks commercial. Talia:A commercial? What commercial?
Nick:I told you about that, didn’t l? They wanted me to be in a commercial.
Script 2
Talia:Hang on a second. You never said anything about a commercial. I wanna hear more about this. Don’t leave out any details. This could be important. Nick:OK. So, over lunch she describes the deal…
Jackie:So,you’ll wear our shoes when you play. And we’ll use your name in ads. Do that and fifty thousand dollars is yours.
Nick:Sounds good. And this will be sometime next year?
Jackie:Uh, yeah, that’s right. We can work out the details later for this, but we’ll probably want you to appear in a commercial.i
Nick:Cool!
Jackie:In fact. I'm working on an idea for a commercial right now. Do you wanna hear about it?
Nick:Sure.
Jackie:OK. Picture this. You’re sitting in a park. On a bench. It’s a beautiful spring day. Nick:So far, So good.
Jackie:OK. A young kid comes up to you and says, “Hey! Aren’t you Nick Crawford, the soccer star?”
Nick:Uh—huh.
Jackie:And you say, “That’s me. ”Or something like that. Nick:Right.
Jackie:And then the kid says, “Wow! Cool shoes! What are they?” And you say, “Kicks. What else?”
Nick:That’s it? Jackie:That’s it.
Nick:So, all I have to do is sit on the bench…and talk to a kid? Jackie:That’s all you have to do.
Talia:That’s what I thought! This Jackie person recorded your conversation over lunch. Then she edited the tape. So it sounds like you’re accepting a bribe. Nick:Oh. wow!
Unit 2 Script 1
Talia: Tony, I need to see you. I have to bring you up to date on the Nick Crawford story. Tony: Come in. What's going on?
Talia: I just spoke to Nick. He was tricked. The tape was edited. He didn't take a bribe. It just sounds that way.
Tony: Well, what does your audio expert say?
Talia: I forgot to tell you. It's definitely Nick's voice. And he said the tape was definitely edited.
Tony: But I don't get it. Who's behind this?
Talia: One of Nick's teammates, Dean Bishop. He resents being in Nick's shadow. He wants to be the only star on the team.
Tony: Of course! The bottom line is ... being the star is worth a lot of money in endorsements.
Talia: Still. I can't imagine...
Tony: OK. So, now, what's your plan?
Talia: I have an idea. I need some help from Amy.
Tony: Fine. You can have another day on this and we won't run the story yet. But one more thing, Talia, I hope you're not emotionally involved in this story. Talia: Me? Emotionally involved?
Tony: I know you want to clear Nick's name. But if you want to have a career in journalism, you have to remember to stay objective.
Script 2
Patty: Hi there. What can I get for you? Amy: How about a large iced tea? Patty: Coming right up. Amy: ... and a little information. Patty: What kind of information?
Amy: I'm trying to get hold of someone named Jackie Bishop. I was told that she's a member of this club.
Patty: Hmm. She used to be, but not anymore. She stopped coming here a while ago. Maybe a year ago, even.
Amy: Oh. Too bad.
Patty: Her brother Dean, the soccer player, works out here, though. I remember
seeing him yesterday, around lunchtime. Maybe you could speak to him.
Amy: Actually, I'd rather avoid seeing him. It's a little complicated between him and me, if you know what I mean.
Patty: Oh, I see. Well, here's an idea. I think Jackie's taking acting classes over at the university. Maybe you could catch up with her there.
Amy: She's taking acting classes at the university? Patty: Mmm-hmm.
Amy: Ah.... Yes, .... That's a great idea. Thanks for the tip. Patty : Oh, likewise! Thanks! Unit 3 Script 1

Talia: I’m about ten minutes away. Can you see her?
Amy: Yes. She’s sitting on a sofa. Hurry up. Classes start in about 20 minutes. Talia: Well, just go over to her and start a conversation. You’ve done your homework, haven’t you?
Amy: My homework?
Talia: I mean, have you found out What courses she’s taking, and everything? Amy: Oh, yeah. I can do a little acting myself, if that’s what you mean.
Talia: So go act like a drama student, and go and talk to her. I’ll be right there. Amy: Excuse me. You’re in the drama program, right?
Jackie: Yes! Oh, hi!
Amy: Do you know if Professor Roberts is teaching this semester?
Jackie: Yes, he is. He’s fabulous I’m in his improvisation class. In fact, it’s tonight. Amy: Oh, great.
Jackie: I’ve been taking classes here for about a year and I think he’s been my best teacher.
Amy: I know what you mean. He’s very …inspiring.
Jackie: Yes, absolutely. I’ve become a much better actor since I started taking his classes…
Amy: Yes, I’m sure you have. Script 2
Amy: Oh, I’m Amy Lee, by the way.
Jackie: Hi. Jackie Bishop. Well, that’s my real name. My stage name is Jackie Baker. Amy: So, do you have an agent?
Jackie: As a matter of fact, I spoke to an agent last week. I just sent him a tape, and he thought it was incredible.
Amy: I’m not surprised. You do seem… incredible.
Jackie: And my brother knows this film director. He’s going to introduce me to him. Amy: Oh, that’s great! Oh, wait, is your brother that soccer player…? Jackie: Dean Bishop! That’s right! He’s my elder brother. We just adore each
other! He’s a soccer star, and I’m going to be a movie star! Tonight he’s taking me out for a celebration.
Amy: Tonight? Really? What are you celebrating?
Jackie: Oh, just … this thing. Nothing really. Anyway, he’s taking me to this restaurant near here. Valentino’s. Have you ever eaten there?
Amy: Um, no … I can’t aff…
Jackie: I ate there once, and I saw Madonna. Amy: Wow!
Jackie: Yes, can you believe it? It was so exciting! Amy: I guess you have to go to the right places.
Jackie: Absolutely! I even booked the perfect table for people watching. Amy: I’m impressed. You really plan ahead. You’re amazing. Unit 4 Script 1

Amy: Talia is a researcher at Newsline. Jackie: How exciting.
Talia: Gee, you look so familiar.
Jackie: Really? We might have seen each other around campus.
Talia: I guess so. Or we may have been in a class together. I'm taking journalism classes. Jackie: No, it couldn't have been a class. I'm taking acting classes, like Amy. Talia: Oh, well. I'll probably think of it later.
Jackie: Speaking of classes, I'd better run. I don't want to be late for Professor Roberts. Talia: Hold it. I think I remember where I've seen you. Jackie: Really?
Talia: Yes. The Gower Building. Script 2
Talia : Don't you work for a shoe company? Kicks Shoes? Jackie : I'm sorry, but you can't be serious. Talia : Oh, I can be quite serious.

Talia : So what did you find out?
Amy: Listen to this. Jackie and Dean are going to Valentino's after her class tonight to celebrate. She's booked a special table.
Talia : This is perfect. Great work. You should be proud of yourself. Amy : Thanks, but it was nothing. Piece of cake, in fact.
Talia : OK, then. You call Valentino's and make a reservation for two. Amy: Oh, wow. Are we going to Valentino's? Talia : Oops ... no. I was planning on calling Nick. Amy: I see.
Talia : Thanks for being understanding.
Amy : After I call Valentino's, is there anything else you want me to do?

Talia: Oh, thank goodness you got my message! Nick: Yeah. What’s going on?
Talia: Don’t worry. I’m not trying to get you to take me out on a date. I’m trying to help you save your career.

Talia: Be serious. I care about… I care about your future. Nick: So do I!
Talia: Good—you wore a tie.
Nick: Yeah, your message said, wear a tie and a jacket. You look nice, by the way. Talia: Thanks. So do you.
Nick: What’s that?
Talia: Here. You have to put these on.
Nick: I’m sorry. Did I miss something here? Is it… is it Halloween? Are you really going to make me put these on?
Talia: Yes. And that’s how you’re going to hear their conversation. There’s an earphone in the wig. Nick: Whose conversation?
Talia: Jackie and Dean’s. They’re having dinner here. Let’s go inside. Script 2
Talia: So, as I was saying, I have a feeling Dean and Jackie are going to talk about you as soon as they get here.
Nick: Really?
Talia: Yup. And all we have to do is record their conversation. We just need to plant this at their table.
Nick: Brilliant! But wait… how will you know which table is theirs?
Talia: You forget—I’m a researcher… I asked the maitred’. That’s their table over there. I’ll be right back.
Nick: OK. I’ll watch for Jackie and Dean while you plant the mike. Talia: Good. Just cough or something to warn me if you see them. Nick: OK. Hurry up. [Nick coughs!]
Talia: Whew! That was close... Here. Look at the menu. We should order. Nick: Right, though I’m not really hungry.
