INT. AUDITION ROOM - NIGHT

A cramped audition room with a LARGE TABLE in the middle. One of those shitty foldable tables from a public school cafeteria. There’s an EMPTY CHAIR close to the door.

Across the table sits the CASTING DIRECTOR (30’s, balding) wearing a shirt and tie. The top button is undone, and the tie is loose. He’s been here all day. 

ACTRESS (20s) walks in through the door. 

CASTING DIRECTOR

Ok you must be ----, thanks for coming have a seat 

She does.

CASTING DIRECTOR

Alright you’re going to give me the smile of our new, women’s brand whitening strip. It’s called super heroine. The name’s pending. No lines, just a big fresh smile. let’s do it. Go.

A beat, then the actress grins.

CASTING DIRECTOR

Beautiful! But it needs to be mintier

She adjusts her smile to this insane request.

CASTING DIRECTOR

Mintier! Think spearmint not peppermint!

She squints while smiling.

CASTING DIRECTOR

Great, great! But make it more evergreen!

ACTRESS

Could you be a little more specific?
