The Foreigner Preview

Charlie Baker (Warren Kelley) shouldn't have come. The 27-year veteran proofreader for a London science fiction magazine shouldn't have left his wife Mary's side in the hospital. Her doctors have given her just six months to live. And, despite the fact that she finds Charlie, well, boring and has been caught making eyes at other men… in the shower, he shouldn't have tagged along on a trip to the backwoods of Georgia to Betty Meeks's (Jane Ridley—Doubt, Enchanted April) fishing lodge with his old Army buddy, demolitions expert Froggy LeSueur (James Andreassi), who's conducting training sessions at nearby military base.

Terrified that he will have to engage in idle conversation with Betty and the other lodge guests, the pathologically shy Charlie begs Froggy to save him from having to speak. Froggy concocts an innovative solution to the problem. He tells Betty that Charlie is a foreigner who speaks no English. He then departs, secure in the belief that no one will attempt to engage Charlie in conversation. Horrified at the prospect of carrying out the charade, Charlie plans to come clean. But, before he can talk to Betty, Charlie overhears a painfully private conversation between the Simms Prepared Meats heiress Catherine Simms (Margaret Loesser Robinson) and her fiancé Rev. David Marshall Lee (Zach Fischer), and "Cha-oo-lee" is born.
