Summary: Script by Dr. Lucy Tse Audio Index: Slow dialog: 1:00 Explanations: 2:23 Fast dialog: 13:05 Shawn: What’s the matter? You look like you’re about to blow your lid. Rick: Yeah, let’s just say I’m not happy. Shawn: That’s putting it lightly. What’s up? Rick: My friend Steve was supposed to come by here after work to give me a ride home. I lent him my car so he could take his girlfriend out for the day. I’ve been waiting 45 minutes and he’s a no-show. I should have known better than to count on a flake like him. Shawn: Maybe something came up. Have you tried calling him on his cell phone? Rick: Yeah, I have and there’s no answer. I can’t believe he’s left me high and dry. Shawn: Tell you what. I’m almost done with my report. If you can wait another 15 minutes, I’ll give you a lift home. Rick: Really? That would be great. Shawn: It’s no big deal. But, I definitely don’t want to be there when you find Steve.
