Option 1:
Marek Carda is offered the chance to consult on the production of a new movie. As the hockey romance genre of books continues to sell like hotcakes, one of the major streaming services decides to try their hand at capturing the magic on screen. To avoid licensing fees, the story for the movie will be original, not based on any of the preexisting books in anyway. Since this is a play to get eyeballs of a specific subset of individuals, not much thought has been given to the hockey portion of the film. There will be scenes in which the love interest is on the ice, doing the hockey, and that is where Marek comes in. It is his job to ensure that the actual hockey being played is passable in terms of the plays being depicted and the action sequences being of reasonable realism. It's not a hard job, once 10 skaters were identified among the extras and stuntmen, all he had to do was consult in the writing and production of these limited on-ice scenes. In exchange for his work, he was offered a year's supply of starbucks, a paltry sum, and the opportunity to appear in the film. In fact, Marek can be seen driving the zamboni in the background, as the protagonist and her hockey-playing love interest share a kiss in the tunnel of the arena to close out the film. -----------------------------------------------------
