"Ah, the monologue," Lito said fondly. "Where would the villains of the world be without it? Lost. Boring. More effective, maybe. Anyway, as an actor, the monologue is important. You can't have an audition without it, most of the time. It shows you can learn a script and give a performance. So. That's what you're going to do. I've brought some options for monologues, and I want everyone to pick one, practice it, and deliver it. You don't have to memorize it, that seems a bit much for one hour, but try not to spend all your time looking at the script, no? Take some time to practice, and then we'll start.

"Oh, and Miss..." Lito looked down at his roster and picked a name seemingly at random, "Heller. You will be my teaching assistant for the semester."

It took quite a bit of picking through things before Ada found something she liked well enough to memorize.

The rest of the class time was spent with Ada talking to herself under her breath as she ran through basic stretches to get her body moving. No one ever believed a Scout or Barker that stood totally still, and Ada had always done her best work while on the move.
