All right. Let's get started with the story.
                                                              BAD CHOICES

      (Three years ago, For a while, Next year) David Beckham (is, was, has always been, is) a man who (wants,wanted, has wanted, wants) to have his cake and eat it too. I think He (wants, wanted, has always wanted, will want) to be a famous movie star and a famous football player. (At the same time, At the same time) So he (moves, moved, has always wanted to move, That's why he's moving) to Hollywood. He (hooks, hooked, has always wanted to hook, gonna hook) up with Tom Cruise. (And he has hoped) They (would, will) hit it off immediately. David (likes, liked, has always liked, will) Tom, Tom also (likes, liked, has always liked, will) David. (well one day) Beckham (says, said, said, will say), "the bottom line is that I want to be a movie star just like you, Tom. Can you help me?" Tom (says, said, said, will say ) "Of course, my gut tells me you (will, are gonna) be a big success in Hollywood." So Tom (introduces, introduced, introduced, will introduce) Becks to a director who (is, was, was, will be) very powerful. The director (makes, made, made, will make) a movie with Beckham, but it (is, was, was, is gonna be) a terrible movie. Everybody (hates, hated, hated, will hate) it and they (hates, hated, hated, will hate) Beckham. The public (feels, felt, felt, will feel) a powerful animosity towards Beckham. They (can't, could't, couldn't, won't be able to) stand him. They (yell, yelled, yelled, will yell) at him. They (throw, threw, threw, throw) things at him.

        Beckham (can't, could't, couldn't, won't be able to) deal with the public's animosity. He (is, was, has always been, is) a guy who (is, was, was, is) very sensitive. He (becomes, became, became, will be) scared. He (feels, felt, felt, will feel) this (is, was, was, is) a dire situation. Beckham (is, was, was, will be) so scared he (won't, wouldn't, wouldn't, won't) leave his house. He (keeps, kept, kept, will keep) the windows closed and the doors locked. He (becomes, became, became, will become) paranoid and he (won't, wouldn't, wouldn't, won't) leave the house even play soccer. Finally, his team manager (calls, called, called, will call) and (says, said, said, said) "this is a situation which is unacceptable. You're fired!" Beckham (cries, cried, cried, will cry), "No." He (has, had, had, will have) no job and nobody (can, could, could, will be able to) stand him.
