Use the script to answer the question.

LIZ: (suddenly) Julian! We have to turn around. I think I left the oven on at the house!

JULIAN: What! I thought you turned it off before we left.

LIZ: I thought I did, too, but I'm not sure.

JULIAN: (frustrated) We are nearly 10 miles away at this point. We can't just turn around. Can you call Michelle and see if she can use her spare key to check for us?

LIZ: Michelle is visiting her sister in Michigan this weekend, remember?

JULIAN: What about Carlos? Doesn't he have a spare key?

LIZ: (with a sigh of relief) You're right! I'm going to call him right now.

In one to two sentences, analyze how the stage directions would impact the way actors perform this scene.

(2 points)

The stage directions in this scene would impact the way actors perform by guiding their movements and expressions, such as Liz's sudden realization and Julian's frustrated reaction. The stage directions also provide cues for the actors to interact with props, such as Liz using her phone to call Carlos.

The stage directions indicate a sudden change of action and emotions for Liz when she realizes she may have left the oven on, which would be reflected in her urgency and worry. Additionally, the stage directions also show Julian's frustration and the need for a solution, which would be evident in his tone and body language.

There are no stage directions provided in the script, so there would be no impact on how actors perform the scene based on stage directions.
