Sample Dialogue to memorize for the Audition

RYAN
The basement door isn’t even locked, but it can’t be opened.
Just look at this place, it’s a mess!
The party wasn’t that rough.

RANDY
Do you think this has anything to do with the article?

RYAN
What do you mean?

RANDY
You know, the story about the woman in the woods looking for her baby.

RYAN
I’ve heard little things about it tonight at the party in fact.
But come on. That’s horse shit. What if this is a big joke on us?
Or worse, what if something really bad happened to them?
Maybe we’re talking about a serial killer here.
