"Ladies and gentlemen, Benjamin Barry!" "Come on, Ben." "Thank you." "Andie!" "Whoa, don't run off!" "You do not want this young lady to leave the room." "Thayer, Tony, would you stop her, please?" "You see, tonight, the really special event is that we will be singing a duet." "Yes, Miss Andie Anderson." "Give her a warm round of applause." "Knock 'em out." "What will our song be?"
