*Read __1__, __2__, __3__, __4__, and __5__ as the first names of your top five idols.*

You're eating dinner with two of your best friends and your parents at a nice Italian restaurant near your hometown.  You just finished your spaghetti bolognese (omg YUM!!!!!) and push your plate away so you can slouch back in your fullness, satisfied and content with your delicious meal.  You can't stop saying how amazing it was.
You get a call from your agent and step outside for a second to answer it, making sure your parents can still see you from where they're sitting.  You answer it as you walk away and say, "Hey, what's up?"
She replies, "I have big news," and she sounds excited, so you're not worried.
"What is it?" you reply, anxious to hear what she has to say.
"You're booked!"
"You're- you're joking, right?"
"I'm dead serious."
"Oh my gosh!  What role?"  You can't contain your excitement.
"The horror movie!"
"You're joking.  The horror movie I auditioned for today?  I didn't even get a callback!"
"I know, right?  They must have really loved your performance!"
"Oh my gosh..."
"There's also something else..."
"What...?"
"Your top five idols are in it..."
"No way.  No freaking way.  You're actually joking, right?  __1__, __2__, __3__, __4__, and __5__?  You're joking.  No... no.  This can't possibly be happening right now."
"It is, and you get flown out to California tomorrow."
You ALMOST gag - you gag without actually gagging; you lurch forward and feel sick to your stomach.
"Tomorrow?" you squeak.
"Tomorrow, *insert your closest major airport* to LAX, 6 AM."
"What?"
"Yup!"
"So I have to leave at like 4 AM tomorrow?"
"Yup."
"Oh my gosh," you say, tearing up.
"I'm so proud of you, Y/N!  Congratulations!"
"Thank you so much, I can't even believe this is actually happening!"
"You're so lucky!"
"Thanks," you laugh.
"Where are you?"
"Oh, I'm at a restaurant with my parents and two of my best friends."
"Did they hear this entire conversation?" she laughs.
"No, I'm outside," you laugh, "can I tell them?"
"Yes, but don't tell your friends your idols are in the movie, and I wouldn't say it's a horror movie, either. You can tell your parents, though, but wait until your friends aren't around."
"Okay... wait.  So I have to rush home, pack, shower, go to bed, and get up at 3 AM?"
"Yup."
"AAAAAAA! Oh my gosh! This is so exciting!  It's literally my biggest dream come true!"
"I'm so happy for you! Oh my gosh!"
"Thank you so much!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" you both scream and run around excitedly, and everyone looks at you (lol).
Your parents and best friends join you outside, since your dad just paid the check.
"Gotta go, Sara!  Thank you so much... for everything."
"Of course, Y/N.  I forwarded you all the information, by the way, and all of you and your parents' travel and stay is being paid for by the production.  Don't worry about anything.  Oh, and you'll be staying at the Ritz-Carlton in Los Angeles."
"Oh my gosh! For how long?"
"About a month - maybe more."
"Oh my gosh, thank you so much again!"
"You're so welcome!  Congrats, Y/N!  Have your parents call me if they have any questions."
"Okay, I will.  Thanks!"
"You're welcome.  Have a great night.  I'll talk to you tomorrow."
"Okay, thanks. You too.  Talk to you tomorrow!"
You hang up the phone and your mom hands you your purse.  You, your parents, and your two best friends walk to your car, and you can't help but grin ear-to-ear and beyond.  Your mom asks, "What did Sara have to say?"
"I got a role!  We fly out to L.A. tomorrow morning!"
Your best friends exclaim, "What?" at the same time as your parents exclaim, "No, you can't be serious!"
"I'm not joking.  It's the movie I auditioned for this morning!"
They can't believe what you're saying and they're so happy.  You're all so excited!
