Overheard Conversations

Here are some more conversations that I have overheard and thought were funny.

Conversation #1

Two guys who knew each other are talking together on the set of "American Pie IV". Yes, they are making another one. But it is straight to video.

Guy #1: "Hey do you know Gabriel who worked with us on E.R. last week?"

Guy #2: "Gabriel, Gabriel, oh yeah, he's the guy with red hair"

Guy #1: "No, he has kind of dark blonde hair."

Guy #2: "Oh yeah. He's a big guy."

Guy #1: "No, not really big.

Guy #2: "But he's pretty tall."

Guy #1: "No, he's about our size."

Guy #2: "Yeah, I know him."

I am not sure if he just wanted to end the conversation or for some other reason, but it was clear he did not know Gabriel.

Conversation #2

A couple of guys who just met are talking together on the set of "Flight Plan". One of the guys wants a cigarette, but doesn't have one. He asks his new friend if he smoked, his new friend did not. So he asks a guy standing near him smoking if he could bum a cigarette off of him. This is what follows.

Guy #1 "Thanks man, thanks. Here I have to give you something because you gave this
to me."

Guy #2 "No, no, that's not necessary."

Guy #1 "Yes, yes it is. I always give something to people who give me something.
Here have a piece of candy, I always have candy in my pocket."

Guy #2 "That's okay, you keep it."

Guy #1 "No, no, I have lots of them. My wife puts a bunch in my pockets every
morning.

Guy #2 "My wife died."

Guy #1 "Oh, sorry to hear that".

Awkward pause

Guy #1 "Here, take another piece of candy."

I guess it was worth telling a complete stranger about a devastating event, to get another piece of strawberry candy.

Conversation #3

I was working on "Gilmore Girls" and there was this very manly looking woman who was annoying everyone there. She looked exactly like "Pat" from the old "Saturday Night Live" sketch.

Manly Woman: "Is Rhode Island in Conneticut?"

Person: "No, Rhode Island is in Rhode Island."

Manly Woman: "It's a whole other state?"

The manly woman got hers later one. She was standing in line to get some food and the person in charge of the food wanted her to let some crew members in front of her. She approached from the back and said....

"Excuse me sir, could you let the crew in first"

The manly woman was not happy to be called a man. But I think gay marriage is legal in Rhode Island. She should look into it, if she can find it.

Did you really work on the Gilmore Girls because... (blushing) it's my latest guilty pleasure. I'm still working out what I like about it. Wait! I've got it! Mother/daughter fantasy times 25 times 50. And snappy, snappy dialogue of course.
