Hey, you're Jenn, right?
JENN
Yes?
AMANDA
I just met your husband, and he told me you have an idea for a TV show.
JENN
That's random. Why would he tell you that?
AMANDA
I'm in school to be a screenwriter.
JENN
If I tell you the idea how do I know that you're not gonna steal it?
AMANDA
If it's worth stealing, I'll write it with you.
