Ticketmaster thinks 'On the Spot' is show from Australia, running at the TCC, or not showing at all

Wildcat: (Standing at Centennial Hall ticket window) I was just wondering, could I get the dates and ticket prices for "On the Spot?"

Puga: Uh, for what?

Wildcat: "On the Spot."

Puga: What is that?

Wildcat: Do you guys show it here at all?

Puga's Co-Worker: When is it?

Wildcat: Excuse me?

Puga: When is it?

Wildcat: I don't know. I was hoping to get the dates.

Puga's Co-Worker: I don't think that's us.

Wildcat: It's supposed to be really funny.

Puga's Co-Worker: What is it about? Do you know what it's about?

Wildcat: It's just about, it's just some cultural examination. It's about people. Am I off my ... ? I just saw the commercials for it and the ad in the paper.

Puga: What's it called again?

Wildcat: "On the Spot."

(Puga mumbles "On the Spot" as she types the name into the computer)

Wildcat: You know what the coolest thing about your guys' jobs is though? You guys can flip the little switch and mumble things about people under your breath to your co-workers. Is it coming up on the computer at all?

Puga: No. Did it say it was going to be on campus, or ... ?

Wildcat: Yeah. It said Centennial Hall. Maybe you should try "The Spot You Are On" or something.

(Puga talks to another co-worker passing by: "On the Spot." He says it's a show.)

Wildcat: Perhaps it's at the TCC or something. You think? It's supposed to be from Australia or something.

Puga: From Australia?

Wildcat: Yeah.

Puga: I don't know. (Begins typing)

Puga: I don't know where it's at!

Wildcat: You know what? It's cool. I work for the Arizona Daily Wildcat and there's no show called "On the Spot."
