Summary: Slow dialogue: 1:31 Explanations: 3:12 Fast dialogue: 13:20 Adriana: Shhh, I’m trying to listen to the radio. Ralph: How can you listen to that radio station? All of their deejays have such funny voices. Adriana: That’s precisely why I like it. Take this guy, Kevin. He has a deep, husky voice that I find really sexy. Ralph: This guy? His voice is so monotone that it lulls me to sleep every time I hear it. Adriana: Well, if you don’t like his voice, how about his sidekick, Lisa May? Her voice is music to my ears. Ralph: She has a nice lilt in her voice, but it’s so high-pitched and squeaky. It can really be grating to listen to her for more than a few minutes. Adriana: Okay, if you don’t like their voices, what kind of voices do you like? Ralph: I like a gravelly voice, speaking softly and saying... Adriana: I’m not talking about your fantasies. I don’t want to know anything about those! Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
