Mike: Because that's the one I read, last night.
Professor: So, any more auditions? Mr. Seaver.
Mike: Yeah, I read that they're having auditions tomorrow for McGregor’s Fish and Chips.
Professor: McGregor’s Fish and Chips? Is that the new Marmot play?
Mike: Oh no, no sir, that's his...err...the old restaurant. You know their slogan, "our fish don't
stink!"
Professor: Somehow that one got by me.
Mike: Oh yeah, well it says right here...err... Play, Swimmy, the happy fish; twelve
commercials, personal appearances, big money.
Professor: A television commercial. What will you have for us tomorrow Mr. Seaver, something
for a sit-com?
Mike: But, don't you have to start somewhere?
Professor: Somewhere Mr. Seaver, not nowhere.
Student: Hey look, when you go, say hi to Buddy Ipsom for me.
Professor: Alright, alright! Enough frivolity ladies and gentlemen. Let's loosen up with another
exercise, hmm? Move the desk for me please, and I shall want you all in two teams. Mr.
Seaver, you shouldn't be here.
Mike: Oh, but sir...I'm...this... I'm sorry, but this is what I've always wanted to do.
Professor: No, no, no, I mean, I'm going to demonstrate the exercise from here. You'll have to
move.
Mike: Oh...oh right!
Maggie: He didn't show up for dinner, dessert, or even a snack. That's it, it's been twenty
seven hours, I've been a good sport, but now it's time to find out what's bothering my little
boy.
Jason: Maggie! Honey...
Maggie: And don't say anything logical or correct that I'll know is right in my heart of hearts!
Jason: Honey, I was just gonna say...
Maggie: Jason, sometimes you amaze me. Our little boy's in agony, and you're about to stuff
your face.
Where are you going?
Jason: I'm taking Mike a snack.
Maggie: But, you said it was a bad idea to go up there!
Jason: Yes I know. I'm inconsistent, Maggie. It's part of the wackiness that makes me so
damned interesting.
Mike: (reading from a play) "When he himself might his quietest make with a bare bodkin.
Who would fardols bare..." Hey, there's only one word in this sentence I don't have to look up.
Come in!
Maggie: We brought you something to eat.
Mike: Oh. Ah...thanks. Just put it down, I'll get to it later.
Maggie: What do we do now?
Jason: Maggie, I've got us this far, didn't I? So, Mike, you're studying, I see.
Mike: Yep.
Maggie: Ahh. "When he himself might his quietus make with a bare bodkin. Who would fadols
bare, to grunt and sweat under a weary light."
Mike: Hey, am I the only guy in this planet who does not get this Hamlet junk? You know, if
you ask me, this does not speak very well of the education I got at Dewey High School!
Jason: Well, maybe you just weren't paying attention the day they covered that.
Mike: Well maybe if it was so important they'd cover it for two days. Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have to get back to some more of this reading, that I probably won't understand.
Maggie: Mike, honey, if it'll make you feel better, I don't have a clue what a fardol is.
Mike: Well the kids in my class, do understand this stuff. You know, and some of 'em have
even done plays by Chekhov. I mean, until two days ago, I thought Chekhov was the Russian
guy off Star trek!
Maggie: You can't know every play that's ever been written!
Mike: Tell me about it, Mom! I've been up till three am, reading these stupid things, and I
made a bigger fool out of myself in class today, than I did yesterday. If I keep reading this
stuff, they're gonna lynch me!
Maggie: Well Mike, what if you only thought you were making a fool of yourself, and you really
weren't. A lot of times, your father thinks he's made a total fool out of himself and err... What
else happened in class?
Mike: Alright, Ok, today...like I brought in this audition for... this audition notice for a
television commercial...a real job! McGregor’s Fish and Chips.
Maggie: Oh, I know their commercials, "If it smells bad, you're in the wrong place!" Or
something like that...
Mike: Dad, now you see how you and I are staring at Mom, like she's out of her mind; well
that is how the whole class stared at me today!!
Jason: Well...
Mike: You know I...I just don't get it! I don't get it! You know, I feel like I don't fit in. And I
have always been able to fit in with everybody! And at Dewey, even though Principal Dewitt
would...would punish me for four years every single day, I know that deep down, the man
liked me!
Jason: He loathed you.
Maggie: He did.
Mike: Well, it's just that the kids in my class know more, and have done more than I ever will.
you know, I think I'm just kidding myself about this whole acting thing.
Jason: So, what are you gonna do about it?
Mike: I don't know. I'm supposed to ask you that.
Jason: Well, we can't answer that, Mike.
Maggie: Well, speak for yourself, Jason.
Jason: No, honey, he's not a little boy. He's got to make his own decisions. I think, Mike, that
this is your dream and only you can decide if the pain is worth it.
Mike: So, is it worth it?
Maggie: Mike, you're gonna have to figure this out on your own. Well, I can be wacky, too.
Come on, let's go, let's go.
Mike: Oh, where was I? Oh yeah, I was looking up, "bodkin".
(Mike looking back at some acting he did before)
Mike: "If I do improve and make a big change, would you be...I mean, could you be...
Student: "I am now. I always have been."
Mike: "So, I guess this is a pretty important talk we've been having."
Student: "Yes...yes"
Mike: Yeah.
Mike: OK. This isn't Oedipus, this isn't Hamlet, it's not even death of a Salesman, but it's a
start, it's not nowhere, it is somewhere, and I am not too good to make my start right
here...today...now!
Auditioner: Fish or chip?
Mike: What?
Auditioner: What are you auditioning for, fish or chip?
Mike: Oh, well...err... Are chips making personal appearances?
Auditioner: Who'd come out to see a chip, huh? They wanna see Swimmy, the happy fish.
Mike: Oh, oh, alright, well Swimmy it is.
Auditioner: Excellent choice. Have a seat. Break a fin.
Mike: Ah, is this seat taken?
Man: Sit! Sit! So, my friend auditioned for this a little earlier and told me all about it. They
make you wear fins and gills and lie on your stomach and grin like crazy, with a hook in your
mouth, while all the chips sing, "our fish don't stink!"
Mike: Ah, well...err... hey, whatever they make me do is fine, 'cause after the way I've been
humiliated this week, it doesn't matter.
Man: Wow, so you're married. Wow, look at the gills on that one!
Mike: Hey, wait a minute, I know them. What the heck are they doing here? I mean, they've
been in plays and summer stock, and they laughed at me when I told 'em about this audition.
I mean they're no better than I am. Hey, have I been a chump!
Auditioner: Come on people! The part of Swimmy has already been cast.
Actors: Hey! What!
Man: Hey, I've been eating worms for three days!
Professor: Once again gentlemen, very clever material! Just hope my swimming lives up to
your vision.
Tony: Do you believe that guy, what a phony!!
Kay: He's not what he seemed at all.
m Apparently not a lot of people are.
Tony: Mike?
Mike: Ah...why don't we just start over. My names Mike Seaver, I've done two plays in my
whole life, both of them at high school.
Tony: Tony Dissipio, and I have done summer stock. I built scenery.
Kay: Kate McDonnell, and I'm not used to this honesty stuff, it's gonna take a while. I wanna
act.
Tony: Me too.
Mike: Me too.
Man: Hey, I just called my service; New York Zoo is looking for people that look like walruses.
It's not right for me, but I figured I'd toss it your way!!
Jason: Make breakfast.
Maggie: Make coffee.
Mike: Oh, you guys, don't worry, I'm not just getting home, OK?
Jason: Don't worry, we believe you.
Maggie: Yeah. I'm just thrilled that you're excited about your class...any class.
Mike: Hey, you bet, and you know, thanks and... You guys letting me make that decision on
my own, it's really changed my life.
Maggie: Well Mike, I guess we can finally say that we trust you.
Mike: Oh, well thanks, Mom.
Girl: Mike!!! We're still waiting for the coffee.
Mike: Oh...err...just one minute.
Jason: Just one second!
Girl 2: Can I come out now?
Mike: Oh, there you are! Oh, hey, let me help you out. Here, come on out here. I'll be right up,
OK?
Maggie: Look, Mike...
Mike: Mom, Dad, listen, you know if I weren't in that stage in life where you trusted me and
wanted me to make my own decisions, I would feel the need to explain here...but I don't.
Jason: Hey, hold on!
Maggie: Do you think you can walk out of her without..
Mike: Got ya!
