[00:00.50] Playing Games
[00:02.25] ACT II
[00:04.97] Oh, Daddy!
[00:06.22] We had such a good time at the aquarium.
[00:08.17] I saw a real shark.
[00:09.26] I could almost touch it.
[00:10.55] I'm so glad.
[00:12.42] Hi. Michelle,
[00:13.74] why don't you introduce everybody to Susan?
[00:15.61] Hi, Susan.
[00:16.22] Hi.
[00:17.49] I'd like you to meet Audrey and her mother, Mrs. Cooper.
[00:20.67] Hello, Audrey.
[00:21.59] Nice to meet you, Mrs. Cooper.
[00:22.91] I'm Susan Stewart.
[00:24.43] And this is Shirley and Nicole.
[00:26.91] Hi, girls.
[00:28.55] Come on in.
[00:29.06] Come on in, Mrs. Cooper.
[00:29.89] Come on in, everybody.
[00:30.82] The aquarium was so exciting.
[00:32.05] I had never been there before.
[00:33.70] The girls learned a great deal.
[00:35.54] Frankly, so did I.
[00:35.97] Well, please sit down
[00:38.34] and tell us all about it during lunch.
[00:40.08] We prepared some tuna fish
[00:42.07] and cheese sandwiches for lunch.
[00:44.80] I love tuna fish.
[00:46.29] Don't you, Audrey?
[00:50.20] I remember when I used to be a Girl Scout.
[00:52.57] My mother would take us everywhere, too.
[00:55.90] Susan, I understand you're in the toy business.
[00:58.09] Yes, I am.
[00:59.10] My company manufactures toys and games for children.
[01:01.06] Susan's vice-president in charge of new toys and games.
[01:04.55] And the marketing of new toys and games.
[01:06.80] Can we test a new game for you, Susan?
[01:08.98] That's an excellent idea, Michelle.
[01:10.53] I happen to have
[01:12.43] a game which I brought home to study.
[01:13.26] Let us try it!
[01:14.06] Do you want to play?
[01:15.63] Nicole? Shirley? Audrey?
[01:19.79] We tested it last week on twelve- to fifteen-year-olds,
[01:23.01] and they found it to be too easy--
[01:25.86] in other words ... boring.
[01:27.71] We think it might be just right for ten- to twelve-year-olds.
[01:30.83] That's us, Susan.
[01:31.95] First, you shuffle the deck
[01:35.66] and lay them face down.
[01:39.67] Then you select the leader.
[01:41.94] I'll be the leader.
[01:44.28] The leader takes the first ten cards
[01:47.22] and lays them face up on this stand.
[01:50.38] h-t-e-r-c-z-e-p-e-s.
[02:12.60] Everyone gets a turn, going counterclockwise,
[02:15.29] left to right.
[02:17.06] You have thirty seconds to make a word,
[02:23.02] using as many letters as possible.
[02:25.65] You get one point for each letter,
[02:28.30] plus the person with the longest word gets ten extra points.
[02:33.39] The first one to get one hundred points wins.
[02:36.35] That's easy.
[02:37.67] OK, let's go around the table.
[02:40.35] You first, Audrey.
[02:49.37] Chest--c-h-e-s-t.
[02:56.50] Good.
[02:57.75] That's five points.
[03:00.13] Next, Nicole.
[03:07.40] Three--t-h-r-e-e.
[03:14.70] OK.
[03:15.55] That's five points also.
[03:17.71] It's your turn, Shirley.
[03:25.60] Creep--c-r-e-e-p.
[03:32.98] Creep.
[03:34.27] That's another five-letter word.
[03:36.17] Five points.
[03:36.99] So far, you're all tied.
[03:38.92] Sheet--s-h-e-e-t.
[03:41.76] Sheet is a five-letter word.
[03:46.00] Michelle, your turn.
[03:47.48] Cheese--c-h-e-e-s-e.
[03:51.87] Terrific!
[03:52.52] Michelle wins with a six-letter word,
[03:54.39] plus she gets an additional ten points
[03:57.37] for a total of sixteen points.
[03:59.27] How are you enjoying the game so far?
[04:01.06] I think it's too easy.
[04:03.36] Too easy?
[04:05.19] Michelle!
[04:06.31] It's OK, Harry.
[04:07.34] Michelle is quite right.
[04:08.90] She just said it's too easy.
[04:10.97] Well, I like the game.
[04:13.64] I enjoyed lunch, Susan.
[04:15.15] Thank you so much,
[04:16.32] but we have to get going
[04:17.65] to meet the rest of the troop at two o'clock at the museum.
[04:20.21] Oh, it was nice meeting all of you.
[04:23.04] I hope you have a wonderful time
[04:24.62] at the Museum of Natural History.
[04:26.45] Good-bye, everybody.
[04:27.47] Have a good time.
[04:28.08] Bye.
[04:29.03] See you in front of the museum at five o'clock.
[04:29.83] Oh, OK.
[04:32.22] Thanks, Mr. Bennett.
[04:32.66] That'll be fine.
[04:33.78] And thanks again for the lunch and for the game.
[04:37.48] Good-bye, Susan.
[04:39.32] It's not a bad game.
[04:41.76] It's just ... slow.
[04:43.97] Just slow.
[04:46.49] You helped save our company a lot of money.
[04:48.94] Bye-bye.
[04:59.65] You are wonderful with kids.
[05:03.81] I am.
[05:05.88] Isn't there a conversation that we have to finish?
