Answer:

I think of actors and actresses who repeat the exacts words of authors as if the words were their own.  In short, in their acting roles, they are expected to own the words and the actions, notwithstanding that the words were completely the words of another person(s), even real human beings.

The acting crew does not cite the authors in their speeches.  Again, when a medical test is conducted to discover an ailment, the laboratory technician or technologist does not cite the author of the results.  She uses the original author's words without infringing on plagiarism.

The difference between these two situations described above and that of plagiarism is accepted practise and industry norms.

Explanation:

Plagiarism is the act of using the exact words of another without citation, permission, and quotation marks.
