I was rounding and backing when they walked in.  They wanted the hammering sound, but I was done with that part of the project. 

Could I just hit a book so that they could get the sound, please?  Well, no.  Please, just hit the book so we can get the sound.  All right, but don’t use the image of me hitting a book for no reason, ok?  Oh, no problem we wouldn’t do that, we just want the sound.

Needless to say, lesson learned about the folks in television.  More happened during this experience, but let’s just leave it at that.
