D is for Duet

“The director of the next play I’m auditioning for is in the audience tonight.  If he likes me, I could be moving to New York.”
Josh’s co-star smiled at him.  “Good luck,” she commented.
They took to the stage and did their song.
When the curtain closed Josh turned to her with rage in his eyes.  “How could you?  You sang off key the entire time!  You ruined any chance I had for my next role!”
“That’s not my problem.”
She stormed past him and ran into the waiting arms of her boyfriend, who also happened to be Josh’s understudy.
