Student and Adam Bourke in “Unfinished Business”

[On stage in drama class] This country was founded on a single truth: All men and women were created equal. If this is going to be the dawn of The Seven, we have to first... get through dusk. [Goes to take seat and class begins clapping after Adam]

No, no, just me! [Does slow solo hand clapping] Now, that right there is how you fucking audition! [Student attempts to bro fist Adam] Don’t touch my knuckles! That’s how you choose a monologue to compliment your director without explicitly saying, “Hey, I love you! I’m a needy little shit. Please give me the job!” No, you do it through the work! You play it on the fucking line! [Sam enters] I’m sorry, can I help you? Kid, we’re having a breakthrough here! [Sam is silent] Look, if you’re here to audit the class, just have a seat! Okay, remember when I talked about stage presence, everybody? That is not it! Josh Hartnett has more stage presence than this man here! And I can say that because we are close personal... [Sam grabs Adam by throat] I was kidding!
