When we last saw Aaron, his parents were splitting, he was stirring up trouble with Caboose, and not mixing with Emma as he hoped. Undeterred, Aaron prepares to pour out his heart to Emma, but those feelings are roasted when he finds out Emma may not be as perfect as the vanilla latte he thought.
If I study that paragraph a little longer I’m sure I could grind a few more coffee puns in it.
Drink up Coffeeteria@!
Continuing our Interviews, we turn the spotlight on the gently heart of Caroline Deaton, who plays the cheer queen Emma Francis. The object of Aaron’s affections and girlfriend of one big dude named Caboose.
Hometown: Nashville, TN
I met God when?: When I was a little baptist girl in Sunday School. It was my birthday wish when I was turning 10 years old that Jesus would live in my heart.
I started acting when?: My very first role was Dolly Parton in my 1st grade play & I did my first commercial when I was 7 years old.
When I’m not acting on Coffeeteria I am: Attending Carson Newman College majoring in Theatre and Religion, taking things and people way too seriously, singing and dancing around (on or off stage), ministering to middle school students.
I really love the show/movie/play? The broadway production WICKED captures my whole heart and being. The few times I sit in front of the tv, I absolutely cannot miss ‘Glee’ or ‘The Office’. As far as movies go, ‘Enchanted’ speaks to me in a way no other movie does 
that, and ‘White Christmas’.
Favorite Bible Verse?: Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Role I would love to play?: You mean dream roles? If so: Glinda in ‘Wicked’, Sally in ‘You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown’, Ariel in “The Little Mermaid”, Penny in “Hairspray”, Belle in ‘Beauty and the Beast’, ‘Minnie Fay’ in Hello Dolly.
Favorite Coffee Drink: Iced Carmel latte.
I’m like my character in that: We both like to fix things with people and/or situations… and sometimes it gets us in trouble.
I’m not like my character in that: I am slightly more hot tempered than Emma is- she forgives easier than I do.
Advice I would give my character: My own personal motto: Make good choices!!
If I could write an episode of Coffeeteria I would: Have Cindy’s character fall for Barrett! and place the setting in Disney World.
The line I totally ad libed was: There’s a scene between Emma and Caboose in Volume 2 where I exclaim and accuse: “JUST kissing?!”
Ok now to the good stuff. In the episode about Betrayal Emma and Cindy have a cat fight! Care to respond to the rumors that you and Jenson (Cindy) have a bitter rivalry off screen as well? What rumors?! Bitter Rivalry?! I love Jenson! She is such a wonderful blessing to work with and even know as a friend… we hang out on and off the set and have a blast whenever we do
Nice Spin. So what about the Rumors about you and Jason Burkey (Aaron). Word is the on screen chemistry holds true off screen! Care to comment? Where are these rumors coming from? The empty space in the director’s head he claims as ‘wit’? 
So I’ll write down No Comment: No comment needed! Jason is a very dear friend of mine thats all!
That’s not a denial but you sure are using lots of smiley faces. Anyway moving on. You and Austin (Barrett) sure seem cozy! There’s rumors about some type of love triangle between you and him and Jason. Care to comment? [long pause] [heavy sigh] You caught me.
Finally! Now we’re getting somewhere. Ok now what’s up with you Blackmailing Drew (Caboose), What do you have on him anyway? You’re silly. I’m gonna go.
Wait, ok we’ll play nice. Let’s talk about your fellow cast members, who is the most fun to work with? Just between us! That’s mean! I love working with every single cast member… I simply cannot single one out- they are all wonderful! And so different from each other- we have so much fun when we are all on set. Cannot compare! Nope! You can’t make me!
So Word is you’ve been in a few music videos! Tell us which ones and some gossip about the artist! Come on you can trust us! My first music video was Clay Walker’s “Live, Laugh, and Love” video. Since then, I’ve been on numerous sets and have appeared in Martina McBride’s “Blessed” and “This One’s For the Girls” (1:48 in+). As far as gossip goes, Martina McBride is one of the sweetest people on this Earth and she remembers me every time I see her!
Fav Scene to shoot (To Date)?: The ‘girl fight’ scene with Jenson (Cindy)
Fav Scene to watch (To Date)?: The First Scene in Volume 2. It shows what happened to Aaron, but I’m not allowed to talk about it.
How would you end Coffeeteria? I speak for all girls watching Coffeeteria when I say that if Emma and Aaron do not end up together SOMEHOW… a mutiny will arrise. Other than that, I haven’t really thought about it!
Scene I dislike the most: From Volume 2, the scene that begins “What was I supposed to say? ‘Hey, where are your pants?’”- I felt somewhat awkward shooting that scene because I was uncertain of where Emma was coming from, and I was having a very trying day that day and I think everytime I watch that scene… I feel that vibe!
Best direction I have been give (To Date)?: I cannot simply choose between all the perfected directions I have been given.
How attractive would you say your character is?: Emma has an inner beauty that is obvious to anyone that lays eyes on her.
I was nervous to shoot this scene: The scene [in Vol 2] in Emma’s father’s room while she is searching through his stuff for money and yells at him. I knew it was an important scene and didn’t want to mess it up!
Funny thing happened on set! Really? Do tell: While shooting a scene for Vol 2 with Jason, James Marsden [X-Men, Enchanted, 27 Dresses] and his family walked by the set and smiled at us!
Really “Cyclops” from X-men walked by the set? Is this some sort of set up to a joke? Trying to pull a fast one? No I promise! He walked by with his family and smirked…. it’s my theory he was thinking about one of two things: “awwe, young actors! how cute!” or “hey, that blonde chick is really cute and talented. I’m going to get her to be in my next movie…” I’m pretty sure it was the second one!
Wow! So any other famous people pop by the set? Tom Cruise maybe stop in and say hello? Actually, yes! Kimberly Williams Paisley stopped by the Coffeeteria while we were shooting, too!
So the Coffeeteria is one happening hot spot for Celeb’s and Coffee lovers alike!
Ok last question. Make up a question you wish you were asked, then answer it?: What is a fear of yours? I have an intense phobia of ducks and camels….
http://www.vimeo.com/7106443 So, we’ve had a few request to know what happens next in Coffeeteria! Well here is a look at what’s to follow in the next round of Coffeeteria in Fuel Ignited Vol 2! Don’t forget to check out the Fuel Ignited Facebook Page! Or Coffeeteria on Facebook!
So we are doing a series of interviews with the cast of Coffeeteria. Today we threw a few questions at the loveable, soulful, sensitive Jason Burkey who plays Aaron in a very loveable, soulful, sensitive way.
Home Town: West Chicago, Illinois
I met God when?: When I was 3 yrs. old my sis prayed with me and apparently i accepted Christ, but I was too young to understand what was going on. So when I was in 4th grade I was at school and I prayed in the hallway with my teacher after class. So whatever age that is…
I started acting when?: Not including homemade movies, it was in 7th Grade. I had a solo in Little House On The Prairie and I was hooked.
When I’m not acting on Coffeeteria I am: Probably eating something.
I really love the movie?: Favorite movie of all time is The Sandlot. Hands down.
Role I would love to play and why?: Squince in The Sandlot or Crutchie in Newsies.
Favorite Coffee Drink: Woof. Don’t drink coffee and never will.
What’s up with the spelling of Aarron’s name on his nametag?: I think The Boz has a secret fascination with pirate’s and thought it would sound cool if he put AArron on my nametag
I’m like my character in that: We both hate coffee and I actually took a job at a coffee shop because of a girl who worked there. She quit on my first day, so that idea failed….
I’m not like my character in that: I don’t have a nerdy/quirky best friend, as much as I want one….
If I could write an episode of Coffeeteria I would: Write a prom episode where most of it takes place on two elevators that the characters get stuck in. I’m not sure who would be stuck together, but hilarity would hopefully ensue…
The line I totally ad libed was: “I saw a squirrel”. I think it’s in episode 4 when I enter the Coffeeteria.
Favorite Scene to watch (To Date)?: When Barrett is hiding from Caboose outside the window of the Coffeeteria and he makes a hilarious gesture when Caboose apologizes.
Fav episode period. I don’t think it’s been filmed yet….
Biggest Challenge in Playing Aaron: Making him believable. I want people to forget that they’re watching an actor portray Aaron and rather believe that he’s a real high schooler with real high school issues.
How would you end Coffeeteria? Aaron and Barrett purchase a sailboat and give snorkeling tours in the Caribbean….and Caboose is their slave.
Best direction I have been give?: Drink lots of red bull and don’t get any sleep
Worst direction I have been given?: Drink lots of red bull and don’t get any sleep!
Tell us a secret of yours when shooting Coffeeteria? I like to whisper sweet nothings to Steve [Director] through my [wireless] mic.
Tell us a secret of yours you don’t want others to know. Come on you can trust us!: I just did.
Tell us something Funny that’s happened while filming?: The bathroom scene in episode 2. When me and Jenson [Who plays Cindy] were standing on the toilet, Steve called action and I accidently flushed the toilet with my foot. It was incredibly loud and there was a moment of silence before we all lost it.
Who would you like to Actually punch in the face in Slow Motion: Austin [Actor who plays Barrett] just to see his reaction. Or Oprah.
Have you learned anything from watching or working with the other cast? I’m not in a scene with everyone, so it’s great to watch these scenes with other characters play out. I read them in the script, but it’s exciting to see how each person interprets their character
Make up a question you wish you were asked, then answer it? How many detentions did you get in middle school? Answer: 46
Hey not bad, Got another? nope.
Closing Statement you would like to make?: I’d rather work for Steven Bussell than Steven Spielberg. true story.
