Characters' Life goals/objectives
-The Inventor: He is young and ambitious and determined to finish his greatest work.
-The Driver: She's the side character who drives across the intersection blocking the Inventor from crossing. Her goal is to enjoy the scenery while driving to her home to cook dinner for her family.
Character Obstacles
-The Inventor: He can't finish his goal due to a final screw missing from his greatest work, and he also happens to be out of them. He runs into obstacles of this obstacle getting a screw.
-The Driver: She has issues getting home before dark, but she can't help watching the sun set.
Actions to Overcome Obstacles
-The Inventor: He runs into several particular obstacles getting his screw:
--First, a stray dog is in front of his car.
---He overcomes this by shooing the dog, and for a minute, dogs.
--Second, the Driver at a three way stop drives very slowly to cross
---He overcomes this by being forced to be patient.
--Third, his car breaks down.
---He overcomes this by trying to work on it, but he eventually gives up and runs.
-The Driver doesn't overcome her obstacle due to becoming easily distracted.
The Ways and Methods Used
-The Inventor: He must shoo the dogs with his arms waving and voice, be patient for at least a moment, and he attempts to fix his car, but he isn't as mechanical with cars and decides running is the best option to get to the hardware store for his screw.
-The Driver doesn't overcome this and keeps driving in a slow manner.
Adjustments Made when Characters don't Succeed
When the Inventor can't fix his car, he decides running will suit his obsession to finish his greatest work quickly.
Realistic Doings Actors are Engaged in
-The actor for the Inventor will actually run for a bit in one scene, he will actually drive, and he will also be screwing the screw for his final work.
-The actress for the Driver will actually be driving.

Here is my spreadsheet mentioning estimated times and schedules of the scenes:
The actor for the Inventor will be Lee Yager, and I have his contact information along with the Driver's who will be Susan Gibson. The locations take place at the actor's actual house and the area around there, and both of the talents know the area well. The Hardware store were completely fine with the filming, and they have the date and know of the arrangements.
