Actor 1: So what are you saying? What do you want me to do?
Actor 2: What do you think I’m saying?
Actor 1: I think you’re saying that…
Actor 2: What?
Actor 1: Umm… I think you’re saying that…
Actor 2: Just spit it out. Really people don’t care.
Actor 1: I think they do.
Actor 2: They don’t, really.
Actor 1: They do.
Actor 2: They don’t.
Actor 1: I’m not saying it. Not here.
Actor 2: Fine, let’s go somewhere else then.
Actor 1: No.
Actor 2: come on just say it!
Actor 1: No.
Actor 2: Really, no one here cares what you say!
Actor 1: No.
Actor 2: Why not?! It can’t be that hard, just say it!
Actor 1: No.
Actor 2: Say it! You promised that you would!
Actor 1: No.
Actor 2: Okay I’m about ready to slap you.
Actor 1: Do it, I dare you.
Actor 2: You really want me to?
Actor 1: Do it.
Actor 2: I will, really I will!
Actor 1: Do it then. Come on I’m ready for you, do it!
Actor 2: I… can’t. Don’t want to in public.
Actor 1: And I can’t do what you want me to do here either.
Actor 2: But I didn’t promise that I would slap you.
Actor 1: So?
Actor 2: You told me that if you lost you would do it. So do it!
Actor 1: No.
Actor 2: Don’t start that again.
Actor 1: *chuckles slightly* Just forget it dude, ‘cause it aint happening!
Actor 2: If you don’t follow your promise then I’m not backing up mine.
Actor 1: Which was?

Actor 2: Fine as in…you’ll do it?
Actor 1: Yup.
Actor 2: Finally!
Actor 1: And you really want me to do this?
Actor 2: You’re the one who lost the bet.
Actor 1: Fine, but if I die tell my… parents dog I love them.
Actor 2: *laughs* Okay dude I will. Hurry up will you, I’m starving!
Actor 1: You wanna eat first? I know a good burger joint around the corner…
Actor 2: No. Do it now.
Actor 1: Fine, but step back.
