What to watch for

The tapes are performed against the real sides — the smug “never lost an Owala” line, the “left it at the park” beat, and the FreeSip eulogy. The thing that matters most is whether she plays it completely straight. The script is only funny if she never acknowledges that it is. Watch for the hold after “left it at the park” — if she can sit in that silence without breaking, she can carry the episode.

Stronger dramatic background than comedic — which I'd read as a point in her favour here, since the script only works if the lead plays it completely straight.

Discussion

Everyone sees everything here. We need a name by Tuesday midday to book talent for the Thursday shoot.

Who's reviewing?

So everyone knows whose notes are whose. First name is fine.
