Jeremy on Caroline Rhea Page II

CR: How can we make you're high school experience that much worse?
JN: It was quite a strange introduction to acting, really.
CR: And how was your first high school play?
JN: Well... [clears throat] not... I think the very first one I did was a production of Green Pastures, can you believe? And the following year we did a production of Skin of our Teeth. Thornton Wilder play. I had a tiny part in it which I didn't speak
 to the very end, and I think we only did it for two nights. And I was getting sick. And I didn't realize I was getting sick until,
 uh, I was actually on stage for this last scene. And someone was taking flash photographs and it was flashing blue and I was seeing yellow, or it was flashing yellow and I was seeing blue afterwards. And I was
  starting to sweat and feel dizzy.
 And I thought, just get through it, just get through it, I'll be fine. Did my little bit at the end of the play, got into the wings,
 and total darkness, I just threw up in total darkness all over the smallest kid of the year.

CR: Oohhh... [audience laughs]
JN: Who was dressed in some kind of crocheted dress, and I remember this surreal image of this kid running down the
 school corridor in high heels.
[JN mocks how the boy was running--Caroline laughs]
JN: Trailing vomit...very nice.
CR: [covers face] God... [Caroline laughs]
CR: I was in the [in a bad English accent] "theater" at London.
JN: Yes.
CR: I was seeing Diana Riggs in Pygmalion.
JN: Yes.
CR: Do you remember that?
JN: No.
CR: Alright [audience laughs]
JN: I know the play.
CR: Well, uh, I threw up all over the woman in front of me. I had cholera.
[JN looks at her with a strange face]
CR: I know, I'm not really turning you on in any way, am I? Not at all.
JN: [talking to audience] Never sit in front of her in the theater.
[Caroline giggles]
JN: In fact, I should get further away.

  [leans away from Caroline]
CR: You're the one that threw up on the little child.

He was defenseless.
JN: You want a bib or an umbrella or something.
CR: I have no intention of vomiting on you.
JN: Well, thank you.
CR: [Caroline laughs and puts her head in her hand]

That's something I never thought I'd say on television.

JN: No.
CR: I have no intention of throwing up on you.
JN: Something I thought I'd never hear.
