Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends1998

Louis Theroux:
[holding a script] Before we head down there, can we run a few lines?

Troy Halston:
Sure can.

[looks at the script]

Troy Halston:
So I walk in, and then I say...

[flatly]

Troy Halston:
"I love you."

Louis Theroux:
Come on, put some feeling into it.

Troy Halston:
I'm not being paid for this.

[they laugh]

Louis Theroux:
You're getting... I'm helping you, I'm not being paid...

Troy Halston:
Right, it's acting.

[he reads the line again]

Troy Halston:
[still wooden] I love you.

Louis Theroux:
Oh, come on! Say it with some feeling.

Troy Halston:
I don't even know you.

[they laugh again]

Louis Theroux:
It's acting.

Troy Halston:
[still the same robotic delivery] I love you.

Louis Theroux:
You're giving the same read every time. Go "I love you."

Troy Halston:

[hammily, with his arms open]

Troy Halston:
"I love you."

Louis Theroux:
Alright, that scares me. But that was better, yeah. So, try again.

Troy Halston:
[in the same way as before] I love you.
