Objective: To get permission from Coach Babych to interview members of the football team and/or himself.

Super-Objective: To use the material towards becoming a respectable journalist.

Outcome: Coach slams the office door on him.

JEFF is in the school hallway trying to keep up with COACH BABYCH, who is ignoring him, while avoiding the various students trying to make their way to class. He constantly moves around COACH BABYCH while talking.

JEFF: Hey, Coach Babych! I was wondering if perhaps you could spare a few minutes to answer some questions about the upcoming season? Or if not, then maybe you could have some of the players take the time to answer a few? Please Coach; it wouldn’t take very long. I can take time out of my schedule if it’s more convenient for your guy--uh!

JEFF is knocked to the ground as a jock walks through him with any concern. COACH BABYCH keeps walking without looking back.

JEFF: Coach wait up!

JEFF picks himself up and sprints to catch up.

JEFF: Look, I know my last piece was a little harsh, but you guys lost by a rather significant margin, would anyone have disagreed with my assessment? OK, saying the offence would have had trouble against a junior high defense was going too far, but I promise that this article will simply focus on the outlook of the new season. It will be like any other preview for a prospective squad and will focus on the potential. I could even profile the captains if you like.

They arrive at COACH BABYCH’s office. COACH BABYCH unlocks the door while JEFF continues with his plea.

JEFF: This is just good business Coach, you need the coverage, your guys need the coverage, and I’m willing to do the job. Come on Coach, what do you say?

COACH BABYCH slams the door shut.
