"Hello?"
"Where'd you go? I was hoping to take you out for lun- are you panting?"
"Power walking is very intense and my legs are freaking burning."
"Where are you?"
"I had to get the directors something to eat and some more coffee."

"Runner?"
"Yes?"
"The director wants you on set in seventeen minutes. Don't be late."
"Wait!"
"Hello?"
"Hello?!"
