I generally have difficulty imagining how long scenes will take, i.e. I don't have a good sense for wordcounts. Imposing the restrictions that Charlie can only speak to God and Karolina and that the sentences must be used in dialogue rather than internal monologue has pretty much forced Charlie into a dialogue with God, as none of the lines would fit between Charlie and Karolina. So, what I have is Charlie 'apologizing' to God for the drastic measures he took to tame Karolina, then a follow up visit with her converted self. Unfortunately, the dialogue is pretty direct and horribly horribly boring.

Not to send you into rewrite mode yet but.
The conversations could have been with "God, other angels*, and Karoline; well maybe the Devil will chime in if things get really bleak."
So you do have a few other potential characters who can participate. Also you're allowed to add to the dialog, it isn't limited to those 7 sentences. You just have to make sure you include them, in any order you wish and with any additions that will help, split them up or do whatever works.
I had hoped the instructions were clear on that but after reading Nikita's comments over in level 3 I'm no longer sure.
If you have any other questions please ask, This isn't supposed to impose a writing block but turn you into a writing bulldozer.
Keep plugging
