Boston Legal !!!! I watch it... do you? Here's Maria's activity for you all.

What is Scientology? (according to Alan Shore)

Girls, this video (00:02:39 long) is from "Boston Legal," a fantastic American legal drama-comedy created by David E. Kelley.
The script is delicious! and this character in particular, called Alan Shore and played by James Spader, is a lawyer of great intelligence and wit who will give his particular point of view as regards Scientology (a body of beliefs and related practices created by American science fiction author L. Ron Hubbard). This ideology has been lately adopted by some Hollywood stars, being actor Tom Cruise one of the most well-known Scientologists.

I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I did, and still do!!!!!

Activities:
1. Pay attention to stresses, pauses, emphasis and intonation. Please don't miss the punch line! Just, enjoy it.

2. If this is the first time you hear about this topic, read some on it. Then, give a short response to the lawyer as if you were Mr. Cairns (try to apply some of the expressions we've been dealing with when giving opinions)

3. Extract at least three expressions or specific terms you would like to remember.
