Lacy stood nervously on stage. She had to
sing well tonight to impress the talent scout. She
looked out to the audience against the bright lights
and found the scout perched on the front row.
Lacy took a deep breath to begin, but stopped.
The microphone was not working. She boldly
stepped past the microphone and belted out her

raised. To Lacy’s relief, she got a message the next
