My friend Jess helped me with the first part of this assignment. We did the Business Option, she played Nancy and I played Conrad. We talked about our goals beforehand and it took us around 30 minutes to complete the exercise. We started by figuring out our characters, whether they were angry, sad, and what they needed from the conversation.
