SCENARIO: Pretend you’re *speaking to a digital assistant*. {{LIST You would like to *purchase tickets for a movie* currently showing in theaters (but see DETAILS below--this is a new format)., You *have NOT decided on which movie* you want to see so *you decide based on hearing what each movie is about* (i.e. synopsis)., The conversation ends with *a successful ticket purchase*.}}

DETAILS: We are providing you with *made up data* which you should use to complete your dialog creation (since there are actually no movies playing anywhere right now). You can pick either movie for tickets, but make sure to at least discuss the other movie that’s playing in order to make your decision:
 {{LIST Location = Needles California, Movie name 1= The Catch, Movie name 2 = Two Times Trouble, Theater name = Paramount Ultraplex, Showtimes for The Catch = 4:00pm 6:10pm 8:30pm 10:40pm, Showtimes for Two Times Trouble = 8:40pm and 10:40pm, Number of tickets = 3, Day = today, Who is going = two friends and I, Synopsis for The Catch = Old Man McCormick enjoys his quiet days on the river until an unwanted package changes things forever., Synopsis for Two Times Trouble = Sadie’s life is busy enough with a teenager and two jobs but things get crazy when she gets unexpected news from her doctor.}}

TASK: *Write the transcript* of your spoken conversation. Make sure: {{LIST it follows *the specific scenario mentioned above*, it includes *at least 10 exchanges* (an exchange is one user turn and one assistant turn), both the assistant and user *confirm the ticket details* before booking, the assistant confirms the purchase with: *“Your tickets are confirmed and they’ve been sent to your email address.”* }}

SPEAKING STYLES: {{LIST The assistant is polite and efficient, The assistant’s speaking style should match yours but they are not overly formal or too casual, Don’t call your assistant by name (e.g. “Johnny” or “Alexa” or “Assistant” or “Computer”), Just assume they’re already listening to you., Do NOT talk about seating preferences OR screening technologies like 3D etc.}}
