Dimitri Ivanov, Richard Lennox

SCENE INFORMATION: Dimitri Ivanov is desperate for a job. He's heard CEO Richard Lennox is eccentric, so he didn't think twice when asked to complete his job interview in a fancy, crowded restaurant. But as Mr. Lennox' questions and comments become increasingly inappropriate, Dimitri's embarrassment grows. It's only when the prospective boss suggests (demands?) that the soft-spoken young jobseeker takes his shoes off that he realizes things are about to go too far, but he's in too deep already... and he REALLY needs the job. "But," he stutters, "this is a restaurant." Mr. Lennox dismisses his objection. "It's fine. They love me here!" Dimitri's embarrassment grows with each new request - taking off his shirt, his pants, his underwear - but he's heard about employee hazing rituals, and Mr. Lennox keeps upping the stakes. "This is a six figure job, Dimitri. I don't know what we'll have you doing, but I'm sure I'll find a good position for you." Poor Dimitri is so embarrassed after the jumping jacks Mr. Lennox demands, he's crying and sniffling a little. But the other restaurant guests are dazzled.
