Real Life Hollywood Questions: Scene for Agent

Those not privy to the actual questions that run through the minds of those in Hollywood might like to know that we are not just thinking about the sheen of our hair. We are doing higher mathematics mentally, trying to suss out the route to the best possible outcome. For instance, an agent wants to see an actor such as myself perform a scene in his office. After hunting for such a scene and coming up with a few alternatives from film and television, a real-life Hollywood question is, "Is it better to do this scene in which a character rants about the 'if it's yellow, let it mellow' rule, or this scene in which a heartfelt confession of love ends in a lecture about the value of soy cheese?" (Note that in the above headshot, I do not yet know the answer.)
