The Meeting – Angela meets Marcus Baldwin

“Lovely to meet you, Mrs. Broke. Glad you came just in time before the sunset. Our butler has a bit of an issue with visitors after dark. Now, come in. Have some tea.”

“I was curious about my daughter’s audition. Lately she’s been having a lot of self-esteem issues; saying she’s ugly and no one likes her. You’ve got to have some kind of program to give her a boost, right?”

“Mrs. Broke, it’s perfectly natural to be concerned about your daughter’s self-esteem, but our casting methods rely purely on talent, not on who needs the boost most. Besides, it’s just a commercial for non-toxic glitter nail polish, not a blockbuster film.”

“But you have to at least have some idea whether or not Renee got the spot, right?”

“Mrs. Broke, we are still in the very early casting process. I can’t say anything yet.”

“Alright…”

“We’ll call you when we’ve made a decision.”
