From Series 1: Prologue/Short Dialogues Dialogue 2 -- Blue Props: It's interesting to use no props with this game, but to act as if there are props. Tip: This dialogue can be played in various tempos. Short and fast is probably best. FREDO -- Those blue trainers are cool. Where did you get them? SAM -- They're green. FREDO -- Blue. That's what I said. SAM -- They're green, man.

Look. FREDO -- I'm looking. SAM -- This isn't blue, it's green. FREDO -- Blue. I've got a sweater that color. SAM -- That one with the v-neck? FREDO -- Yeah. SAM -- That's green man. From Series 1: The Beginning and The End Dialogue 13 -- A Sack of Hay Tip 1: In this dialogue the opening sentence is a strong message for Duke so it's important that it comes across clearly.

Try out different ways of saying it and see which one has the right tone. Should it be sweet, angry, yelling, crying? The only way of finding the right way is to try it. Tip 2: If Sheri names the people that think Duke is a sack of hay, then that many people can appear in the performance of the dialogue. In that case the names can be spoken slowly as the people come on. SHERI -- And that's why I think you're a sack of hay! silence DUKE -- That's your opinion. SHERI -- Not only me. DUKE -- Oh? Who else then? SHERI -- Olivia. short silence Jack.

Ben, Wesley, Viola, Larissa, Nanette, Babette, Listette, Yvette, Joni, and Talissa. DUKE -- Well. That doesn't mean anything. From Series 2: The Message Dialogue 24 -- Nice Pants Tip: Make up a situation where this dialogue can happen. Imagine that DORA is very rich, or very poor, or a student, or a homeless person.

Add cynicism according to the context. DORA -- Nice pants. NICK -- Thanks. DORA -- They must have been expensive? NICK -- Yes. DORA -- Do you have to save up a long time to get pants like that? NICK -- I've got a paper route. DORA -- So with that paper route you can buy.what, a pair of pants every month? NICK -- Roughly. DORA -- And then a sweater the next month? NICK -- Maybe.

DORA -- So after a year you've got roughly two pairs of pants, three sweaters, two T-shirts, a pair of boxer shorts and maybe.a new pair of shades. NICK -- That's possible. DORA -- And during summer. You have a summer job? NICK -- Usually for the first 4 weeks I go. DORA -- Apple picking? Strawberry picking? Tomato picking? Dish washing? NICK -- And then. DORA -- To Mexico for a week! NICK -- Yes. DORA -- And do you still have money left after that? NICK -- Yes.

Why? DORA -- I'd love some French fries.
