The boss walks in and sees the employee looking through the blinds. The office is busy, but the employee looks relaxed. They’re known for funny pranks and get along with everyone. Today, they gave their desk neighbor, Chester, a very strong Vietnamese coffee, knowing he can’t handle it. The boss smiles, waiting to see what happens.

(Confident, amused, casual)

Hey David, welcome back. I hope you closed the deal with—oh wait, look. See that? Chester likes to take my coffee sometimes. He doesn't know that I shipped the 'strongest' coffee found in the Vietnamese mountains. This morning, he dove into a pile of lasagna, and the coffee should kick in within five minutes. The last time Chester had too much coffee, he won Employee of the Month and got a girlfriend on the same day. So, I want to see what happens.

A cozy, sunlit café. The gentle hum of conversation fills the air. Two Friends sit near a window, drinks in hand. One of them, visibly uneasy, shifts in their seat. Their friend notices the discomfort and leans in with quiet concern. The uneasy friend hesitates, clearly cringing at a memory. Their voice drops low, words rushed and uncertain. They fidget nervously—adjusting their drink, avoiding eye contact—as they begin to recount an absurd and deeply embarrassing incident involving Adam. The memory stirs a mix of frustration and shame, making it difficult to speak, but they push through, eager to finally share the story despite the discomfort.​

Friend 1

"I’d prefer we didn’t talk about Adam. He did some very… um, embarrassing things, and I somehow got dragged into it. He got really drunk and thought the mayor was a dancing walrus. He went up on stage, started dancing, ripped off his shirt—and I’ll just let you imagine what he did with the mayor…"

 The characters share a pause

Friend 1​

He shouted out my name and tried to pull me on stage. I was hoping no one saw me but that barista recognized me.​​

You are trying to prep talk Character 2 as they seem to feel anxious and have made several remarks that people might not like them. They are walking down an empty sidewalk that leads up to a beautiful Gatsby-themed mansion.

(Excited, Compassionate, uplifting)

Hey! Remember to 'lock in'. The party is going to be fun because you 'always' light up the room. You may not see it, but everyone in that house loves you! You already know all of them, and they want nothing more than for you to have a great time.
