Sophia: paces nervously I-I was... uh, caught with Mr. Thompson! W-What do I do now?!
Well, what exactly happened?
rubs her temples Look, Parker, I know it sounds crazy, but I was just... you know, hanging out after a couple of drinks, and one thing led to another, and... well, we were kinda caught up in the moment, you know? It was nothing serious, just... a harmless hook-up.
grabs Sophia's arm and pulls her into his office Okay, okay, calm down. First, close the door.
fidgets with her hands This is a disaster! He's gonna fire me for sure! What if he comes after me? I need a plan, like yesterday!
runs her fingers through her hair, speaking rapidly Mr. Thompson? He didn't say much, but his eyes were like daggers, ya know? I could practically feel the steam coming outta his ears! He was all like, "Sophia, what the hell are you doing?" And I was like, "Uh, nothing? Just, you know, hanging out." But then he told me to get outta there, and I was like, "Oh, okay, sure thing," but now I'm scared he's gonna, like, fire me or something!
laughing Caught? Are you two dating or something? That's some spicy stuff!
No! No! It wasn't like that! I swear, it was just a one-time thing! runs a hand through her hair Look, I need your help.
Calm down, Sophia. First, explain what exactly happened?
runs her fingers through her hair Okay, okay, so you know how I'm always chasing after him, right? Well, I kinda... um... found him first today.
Calm down, Sophia. Let's figure this out together. First, let's make sure we have all the facts straight. pulls out a notepad and pen
runs a hand through her hair, her voice trembling I-I was just... y-you know... hanging out with him... and... uh... one thing led to another...
well first calm down i know it was not your fault
runs hands through hair Y-you think so? He can't be that mad at me, right? It's not like I planned any of this!
Calm down, Sophia. Let's figure this out together. First, let's gather some facts. When did this happen?
takes a deep breath Okay, okay. It happened last Friday night. I was working late and... well, we were just... you know... hanging out in his room. But nothing happened! I swear!
smirks That's quite a scandal, Sophia! You sure know how to live life on the edge, huh? How did that happen anyway?
sighs heavily I-I was just...you know, doing some...personal research. For my job. Yeah, personal research! runs a hand through her hair
Whoa, that's rough. How did it happen?
rubs her temples Look, it's a long story. Let's just say I was there on a "business trip" and things got a little heated.
Calm down, Sophia. Let's think this through. What exactly happened?
takes a deep breath Okay, so... I was at the hotel for a work event, right? And, uh, Mr. Thompson and I were, um, hanging out in his room...
Look, let's figure this shit out together, okay? Calm down, deep breaths, in... out... good. Now spill the beans—what happened exactly?
runs a hand through her hair Okay, so... I was at a conference, and he was there giving a speech. One thing led to another, and...
runs a hand through her hair, eyes wide with panic It was just a one-time thing, okay?! I-I couldn't help myself! And now he's all mad and stuff, and I'm scared he's gonna fire me! I mean, can you imagine?! Me? Out of a job?! clutches her chest dramatically
Listen, Sophia, let's take it one step at a time. First, calm down. Second, come with me to see Mr. Thompson and explain everything.
runs hands through hair, pacing back and forth Explain everything, huh? Yeah, sure, I'll just casually drop that I was sleeping with my boss's boss!
leans forward, eyes wide with concern Caught?! Like, naked or something?
sighs heavily Well, uh...not exactly naked, but...yeah, kind of. Look, it was just a hookup, nothing serious, okay? I didn't mean for it to happen!
waves hands frantically Look, it was just a one-time thing, okay? I mean, I was lonely and he was... well, you know... available.
pulls out his cell phone What are you still doing here, Sophia? Get out of here.
stops pacing, eyes wide with shock Wh-what?! But...but...I thought you'd help me figure out what to do!
runs a hand through her hair, speaking rapidly He didn't say anything! He just... he stormed out, his face all red and... and furious!
well...first, calm down. Second, let's talk about what happened.
runs hands through hair, hyperventilating Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God! I can't believe this is happening! Okay, okay, okay, let's...
