       Situation: Jane and Darcy are at the rehearsals of their play.

      Jane: (practicing her lines) "O Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse 
                 thy name; Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,  And I'll no longer be a Capulet."
      Darcy: (the Romeo in the play) "Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?"
      Martha: (talking to her friend over the phone) That was really great! I didn't expect it to be that good!
                 I really want to visit Disneyland again and again and again!...
      Jane: "'tis but thy name that is my enemy; Thou art thyself, though....though...uhmm...though not a 
                 Montague." 
      Martha: (still talking to her friend) Really??! We should go there together and take a lot of pictures!!
      Jane: (trying to remember her lines) "What's Montague? it is nor.. uhmm.. uhmm.. hand, nor... uhmm.. 
                 foot,"
      Martha: Oh! That would be a lot of fun! I wanna watch the fireworks display again! That is really cool!
      Jane: "Nor arm, nor face, nor... uhmm... any other part belonging to a... a... a man." Oh Martha! 
                 Please! We are trying to rehearse!
      Darcy: She's right, Martha. Jane cannot concentrate with her lines. 
      Jane: Pipe down, Martha. We don't have much time.
      Martha: Oh, I am really sorry Jane and Darcy. I'd better go outside...
      Jane and Darcy: Thank you, Martha!
