rik, I was just clarifying for Media Hero as you had covered the why but not the how. So the script sup isn't responsible for marking botched lines or boom mikes in frame or anything?

Yes. That is a very important part of the scripty's job. But it's not what the squiggle lines on the script indicates. That info will be written on the facing page.

Got it. Squiggles are just showing coverage, continuity gaffes and botched lines/shots go on shots page in the comments. Thank you, it all suddenly makes sense, as if a light had dawned...or had the switch thrown.
