Script:
W: Mr. Silver, I finally tracked down Carl. He came down with a sudden case of the flu this morning and won′t be able to make the one o′clock meeting.
M: Well, okay. I still need the report that he was going to present at the meeting, and our partners are going to start arriving in ten minutes.
W: Carl told me to get the report and give it to you.
M: Good. Get it to Bryan as soon as possible, and tell him that he′s going to have to present Carl′s report. I′ll meet the partners and try to give Bryan enough time so that he can familiarize himself with the key points.
