How to Be a Really Famous Actor (And Other Acting Tips), Friday, Period 1
As previously announced, Lucas's final was taking place in the school auditorium. To any students who had yet to realize just how into himself Lucas really was, it would probably be a surprise that there was a big projection screen on the stage with Lucas standing in front of it.
"Hey. So, last class. Big deal. I'm sure you've all worked really hard on your final scenes, but I have to admit something. I don't want to grade you on crap like that. I mean, it's going to be at least as painful for me having to sit through it as it would be for you to fail that badly. So what we're going to do instead of having you try to act without a safety net is watch a master at work." Lucas hopped off the stage and started walking toward a seat in the front row.
"The movie is The Game is Over 2. If you haven't seen The Game is Over 1, that's your own fault. You've had a full semester with me. You should have seen all of my movies by now. But you should be able to pick up pretty quickly. It's a movie about a good cop - me - who's finished fooling around... again. And this time, my character, Detective Frank Cooper, is out to bust some drug dealers in New York City, a move that takes him and his partner, played by the great Paul Rapovski, all the way to Hong Kong after the drug dealers kidnap his wife."
"Sit back, relax, and enjoy me," Lucas said before the lights dimmed and the movie started rolling.
