00:01Hey, Mona, what did you do all day?
00:04When kids can drive, she doesn't do anything anymore.
00:06Today I auditioned for a musical show.
00:09Mona, look at you, full of surprises.
00:16What's your story?
00:17I don't think we've seen you before.
00:19I haven't sung in front of anyone since church choir.
00:23We're auditioning for Jerry.
00:24Who's Jerry?
00:26Basically the biggest name in New Jersey Community Theater.
00:29He's brilliant, but he's not here to be your friend.
00:31Hi, Jerry.
00:32Mocha, no milk when you have it.
00:35Mona Friedman.
00:37That's me.
00:38You're up.
00:39Whenever you're ready.
00:43Mona?
00:43Yes?
00:44You're the only person who auditioned for Miss Danielle.
00:46You got the part.
00:50Jerry is gonna test you and push you and drag you through the mud.
00:54No one move!
00:56Mona, look at me and say your line three times in a row and don't blink.
01:00Can I blink first before we start?
01:02No, go.
01:03Everyone can take the rest of the day off, except for Mona.
01:08Every single thing you are doing is not working.
01:13Hi, Miss Danielle.
01:14Thanks for coming by on such short notice.
01:15What seems to be the problem, Barnaby?
01:19Sorry, is that, um, is that how she's gonna do it?
01:21Jerry, you're a mocha.
01:23It's too late for that.
01:23Of course.
01:26All of the baggage that you've been holding on to your whole life.
01:29Honey, did you make dinner?
01:32Use it.
01:33I'll need my tool belt.
01:34And a mocha.
01:35No milk.
01:36I knocked you off the goddamn wall and you are lying in pieces all over the ground.
01:40No, God, did she kill you?
01:43But we are gonna put Humpty Dumpty back together again.
01:47And, Mona, when we do that, you are gonna be dynamite, baby.
01:53What did the mask of Miss Danielle feel like?
01:57I could do anything.
01:58I could say anything.
02:01You know, I used to be an actor.
02:03When I saw you up there, I just thought, I wish that was me.
02:11Opening night, when the lights are on me, I'm gonna shine.
