Factual error: No actor is going to secure a recurring speaking role in a soap opera unless a comprehensive insurance policy has been secured. (This applies to feature films, too.) This will inevitably involve a medical examination. Mr Dorsey's plans are going to become dreadfully unstuck the minute he drops his y-fronts in the doctor's surgery. (No, he can't find a compliant or bribeable doctor - the insurance company will always use their own people.)

Directed by: Sydney Pollack
Starring: Bill Murray, Dustin Hoffman, Jessica Lange, Teri Garr, Dabney Coleman
Plot hole: Since "Dorothy Michaels" does not exist, she will not have a Social Security number. Even with her agent acting as a go-between, the television production company, her employers, would have to have this for their records. Supplying a false Social Security number is a very serious offense (and is instantly detectable), as is employing someone without one.
Michael Dorsey: I don't believe in hell. I believe in unemployment, but not hell.
Trivia: The entire party scene was improvised by Bill Murray.

Answer: What she said was a fantasy - big difference between saying that in conversation and actually having it said to her.
Thank you.
