Sinjin: Unlike Randall who reveals his advanced age not only by his musical tastes but also by his choice of clothing, my musical interests lean more toward the eclectic. Most recently, I have been listening to indie music. In fact, Jolie and I discuss my musical interests in Toil and Trouble.
JoAnne: Sinjin, are there any ladies on your radar? Besides Jolie.
(Sinjin glances at Rand with a twinkle in his eye)
Sinjin: No. I find myself quite smitten with the witch.
(Rand pretends extreme interest in his feet while his face flushes and his ears go red).
JoAnne: Rand, do you enjoy having Jolie live with you?
(Rand releases the clench of his fists)
Rand: Yes, though it can be frustrating at times. I constantly have to battle between knowing I should maintain my distance due to our employer/employee circumstance and acting on my more primitive emotional notions.
Sinjin: Interesting, Randall. I was not aware you had primitive emotions, or emotions at all for that matter. And what, pray tell, would those emotions be?
Rand: Sinjin, I’ve had about all I can stomach of you.
Sinjin: You have a tendency to avoid direct questions.
(Rand throws Sinjin a glare)
Rand: Jolie and I are much closer than you and she will ever be. Is that direct enough for you?
JoAnne: Thank you for joining me gentlemen. It has been an, uh, interesting experience. I'm looking forward to reading more about all you in Toil and Trouble.
(Sinjin seems unfazed but Rand looks like he’s about to explode).
Sinjin: Thank you, Ms. McLeary, I look forward to when next we meet.
(Rand stands up and offers JoAnne a curt nod and a quick handshake, refusing to glance at Sinjin).
Rand: Thank you for the interview and I hope your readers enjoy it. I’m terribly sorry but I simply can’t stand Sinjin any longer.
(Sinjin and JoAnne watch Rand leave. Sinjin turns a big grin on her, standing up).
Sinjin: I suppose we cannot please them all, Love.
