If J Was M

If J Was M English, baby! Video Lesson

Date: Jan 29 2008

Themes: Romance, Soap Opera

Intro

1. Learn Vocabulary - Learn some new vocabulary before you start the lesson.

2. Read and Prepare - Read the introduction and prepare to hear the audio.

Have you ever noticed how similar Jason and Mason’s names are? They’re pretty different dudes. Mason used to have a beard, Jason went to Istanbul. But their names are only one letter apart. It’s a wonder that in all the romance that’s been going on lately with the Ebaby! cast, that the two names haven’t been confused.

Or have they?

3. Watch - Watch the video without reading the dialog.

Dialog

1. Watch and Read - Watch the video and read the dialog at the same time.

2. Study - Read the dialog again to see how the vocab words are used.

Devan:  So, Beren. I told Jason about Amanda. About how she likes him.

Beren:  Oh, good. Yeah.

Devan:  He was really excited.

Marni:  Wait.. what?

Beren:  Love is in the air.

Marni:  You told…Wait. Who did you tell what?

Devan:  I told Jason that Amanda likes him. That’s what you told me.

Beren:  Yeah, that’s what you told me.

Marni:  No no no no. I told you that Amanda likes Mason, not Jason.

Beren:  Oh…

Marni:  Oh no.

Devan:  He was gonna go for it. When I told him he was so excited he ran down to go meet her.

Marni:  Oh no!

Beren:  I think they went on a date tonight.

Marni:  What? That’s not even possible. She likes Mason.

Devan:  No no no.

Marni:  Yeah, she doesn’t like Jason.

Beren:  Well, we should tell Jason.

Devan:  She likes Mason?

Marni:  Amanda likes Mason. I guess someone else likes Mason too.

Devan:  That’s just great. So what? Are they gonna get married now?

Marni:  I…I don’t know what’s going on there.

Devan:  Yeah. That’s great. That’s fine.

Marni:  Yeah, I guess love is not in the air.

Beren:  It’s not in the air, but we should tell Jason that. He already changed his relationship status on MySpace.

Marni:  Well that was a little presumptuous.

Discussion

Remember back when Devan told Jason that Amanda likes him, but then Amanda didn’t want him to kiss her? Did that add up to you? Well now we know what happened. Marni told Beren that Amanda likes Mason (which everyone knows) but she confused the names and told Devan that she liked Jason.

Now Devan knows for sure what she already suspected. Amanda will be her biggest obstacle when it comes to wooing Mason. She’s so upset that she storms off.

And let’s not forget poor Jason! He thinks he and Amanda are seeing each other. He even told Mason about it.

What do you think will happen? Will Amanda and Mason ever get together? How will Jason and Devan take it if they do?
