"So he managed to save it. That was good of him."

"I'm sort of sorry I dragged us into this," Shelley admitted. "Let's make a deal here. We're not part of the cast. We can call the actors by their real names, okay?"

Jane sighed with relief. "That was going to be my suggestion, too. I'm not good at remembering names anyway, and especially not two sets of names for the same person. I'm curious as to why these rehearsals aren't done during the day"

"It's because the students are on what's called Fast Track Summer, which means they can do a whole semester's work in seven weeks. But they have to take every class every day, with one-hour breaks for studying for exams. That's why they can't get here until six."

"Oh, yes. Imry said something like that but I wasn't paying enough attention."

"That's an interesting concept. I'm going to ask Mike if his college does that."

"I'm going to hide this script in my briefcase and take it home to read tonight," Shelley said. "So far I'm not much impressed with it."

"I don't like the director," Jane said. "I think it's unfortunate he's also the writer of the script. Too much ego bundled in one person. It's odd about the casting, don't you think?"

"In what way?" Shelley asked.

"With the proper makeup and clothing, the Weston family will look like they're all related. Imry did make good choices in this case."

"You think so?" Shelley was perplexed. "They don't even have the same colored eyes. Both the Buntings are blue eyed, and the older son's eyes are brown. That's impossible, I think."

"Shelley, we see them up close. The audience won't see the color of their eyes. I wasn't crazy, I have to admit, about Denny."

"What's wrong with Denny? He was right about his character's background and was dead on about 'Angeline and me.' "

"But it was wrong of Denny to tackle him that way in front of all of us. He should have taken Imry aside and told him that his grammar was wrong in private instead of showing off in front of all of us. I think I'm having heatstroke," Jane
