If first place offers you a gig, just say you’re also interviewing at other shops and want to weigh your options. I’ve done it a dozen times. Places are usually cool about it. After you talk to the second place, you can wait a day or two and then tell them you have an offer from another place but that you’d rather work there if they’re interested.
EOD Friday is probably a longer wait time than they’d expect. 48-72 hours is probably more the norm in my experience. But again, you can buy time. If they offer you a gig verbally, express excitement but also say that it just so happens that there is another agency who you started talking to and they’ve asked for another interview with you on Friday. Tell them you’d be stoked to work at their agency but at the same time this is a big move and that you’d like to honor your commitment to the other interview in order to fairly weigh your potential options.
Do it all graciously and respectfully and things should go okay. If they push back simply ask how much of a cushion you have. They should at least give you until a business day or two after your other interview.
Ask for the rest of the week to decide on the offer. And let them know you’re waiting on a another offer. Then tell the company you don’t have an offer from that you have an offer on the table currently.

Are you a gambling person?
There are lots of factors that play into why you’d take a little while to take an offer, like making arrangements with your family, or talking things out with your landlord (in the case you’ll have to move). There’s no reason to give them an answer right away, and in my opinion, there’s no reason to tell them it’s because of another opportunity at this point
Yeah, or like travel plans, whether your partner can get a job there/what that looks like for them, if you have upcoming dental work you want to use your current insurance for. There are many reasons to think through an offer and there’s no reason to accept in the moment
