Film scripts
1. Entertaining
Jeff: Congratulations, Kristin. You're the perfect voice for WMJT's news program. You'll be even more appealing than Katie Baxter ever was.
Kristin: Oh, Jeff. Thank you.
Jeff: You'll wake me up every morning. It will motivate me to begin the day in a positive mood.
Kristin: And who will motivate me to get up every day at half past five?
Jeff: Are you going to change the concept of the program?
Kristin: We're still arguing about that. We have this mix of entertainment and news, and I believe that the news is at least as important as the entertainment. After all, it is a news program.
Jeff: Actually, it's more important!
Kristin: That's one viewpoint, but other people think that it's less important. It's also a question of what the public wants, and we know that's not less important!
Emma: Do you like Aunt Rachel?
Tom: Yes. I do.
Christopher: Why do you like her?
Tom: Why... She's a very nice and special person.
Emma: You're right. She's almost as nice as Mom.
Christopher: Yeah. But Mom's not as cool as she is. Sometimes she lets us do stuff that Mom never does.
Emma: And why do you...
Tom: I don't know. I just know one thing. Christopher is as curious as a cat, and Emma is even more curious!
Emma: No I'm not!
Kristin: Good morning. This is WMJT. It's time for today's headlines with Kristin Porter.
Jeff: Congratulations on your new job, Kristin!
2. Fine dining
Head waiter: Do you have a reservation?
Rachel: Yes. I think so.
Head waiter: For how many people?
Rachel: It's a table for four, but it's not in my name...
Tom: Hi, Rachel.
Rachel: Excuse me. Hi Tom!
Tom: Rachel! How are you?
Rachel: Did you make a reservation for us?
Tom: No, I didn't, but I think Kristin did. Try Porter.
David: Porter? Here we are! Welcome to Boston, Rachel.
Rachel: Thank you. I'm so glad to be here. I have a wonderful new job, a great apartment and I'm here with my loved ones.
Kristin: It was a good decision.
Rachel: Yes, it was. I'm a hundred percent sure. Boston is really a beautiful place.
Tom: Is our table ready?
Head waiter: There's one available near the window. And one next to the fireplace.
Tom: The fireplace... That sounds perfect.
David: When did you get here Rachel?
Rachel: I arrived last night, after two days on the road.
Kristin: I asked her to stay at our house, but...
Rachel: ...but I wanted to spend my first night in Boston in my new apartment.
3. Coffee, tea, dessert
David: So, Kristin told me that you had an important interview.
Tom: Yes, with Mick Morrison.
David: Mick Morrison? Who's that?
Tom: Geez David! Mick Morrison is number one on the charts!
David: OK, OK. I guess I'm not with it. Anyway, how did it go - the interview? I mean?
Tom: Mmm... In the end it went fine, but the beginning was...
Rachel: ...a disaster.
David: A disaster? What happened?
Tom: Phew ... It was terrible. Everything went fine at first. I was on time, he was on time, we sat down I began my questions, but...
Tom: ... I didn't record it.
David: You're kidding.
Tom: I'm not kidding. I didn't turn on my tape recorder. I just... I just... forgot. After a while I noticed and...
David: Did you tell him?
Tom: Of course I told him!
David: And what did he say?
Tom: He said: "Don't worry, bro. At my first concert I forgot my guitar!"
Waiter: Excuse me. Are you ready to order dessert now? We have a wonderful chocolate cheesecake. And the tiramisu is fantastic.
Kristin: Just a moment, please. I think we... forgot about dessert.
Rachel: A black coffee for me, please.
Kristin: Who's having dessert?
Tom: I am. The chocolate cheesecake, please.
Kristin: Mmm... Sounds good.
David: Just a cup of tea for me, please.
Waiter: With lemon? Or milk.
David: Just lemon, no milk.
Kristin: What's the "Apple In and Out"?
Waiter: That's a sort of apple pie. It's really delicious.
Kristin: OK. I'll have that.
4. Meal planning
Tom: Hmm... Do I need anything? I need a lot of things. Vegetables, potatoes...
Hello Rachel! Come in! How was your day?
Rachel: Excellent! I love this job. It's so interesting, I have a lot of responsibility, my co-workers are great and I'm having a wonderful time.
