Sample of script:
Leader: Alright now! All here and accounted for? Susan?
Susan: Here, sir!
Leader: Actually it’s ma’am, but regardless, your presence noted. Dorothy?
Dorothy: Here we are, here we are, here we are!
Leader: Uhhhhhhh, perhaps a simple “Present” would do the job,
Dorothy. However, those things being said, good to see you troopers here.
Susan: Excuse me, sir!
Leader: Ma’am.
Susan: I really prefer not being called ma’am if you don’t mind sir.
Leader: No, you don’t understand, what I meant was, don’t call me “sir,” I am “ma’am.”
Susan: Then why did you say “ma’am” sir!
Leader: I did not say ma’am, what I said was . . .
Dorothy: Yes you did, yes you did, yes you did.
Leader: Yes, well I know I said “ma’am” but . . .
Susan: How can you say you didn’t say when you just said that you didn’t say what you said? Sir!
Leader: This is getting us nowhere, and what we need is to be getting it done.
Dorothy: Getting it done, getting it done, getting it done.
Leader: I know I shouldn’t ask, Dorothy, but why do you repeat everything?
Dorothy: I came from a poor family. My brother always wanted a parrot and we couldn’t afford to buy one so . . .
Leader: . . . so you became the parrot. I knew I shouldn’t have asked.
Dorothy: Arrrrkkkkk! Polly wants a cracker!
Susan: If I may be so bold, exactly what are we about to be getting done? Sir!
Leader: The task at hand, that’s what!
Dorothy: Getting the task at hand done? Mmmmm. Interesting. Mind telling me . . what will it take?
Leader: Take? Well just let me tell you, it will take more than you can likely imagine. First and foremost: authority….
