Misery Inc.

Scene: A group casting session in a small conference room. Around a table are four men dressed well. MAN 1, 2, and 3, each have an interesting costume piece appropriate for their professional work. MAN 4 wears a normal interview business suit. A woman in business attire sites at the head of the table.
