  "summary": "Adam Scott, star of the TV series \"Severance\", recently appeared on \"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon\". He was in New York filming season 3 of \"Severance\", and his family was with him for a while.\n\nDuring this time, his teenage daughter was taking acting classes. On the first day of one of her classes, her teacher showed a video of Scott's audition for \"The Office\" as an example of \"what not to do\". The teacher also showed John Krasinski's audition for \"The Office\" for comparison.\n\nThe teacher was unaware that Scott's daughter was in the class and was confused by her \"mortified\" reaction. When she left the class, the teacher asked her if she knew one of the actors and later realised she was Scott's daughter.",
