W: Without any details I’m afraid I can’t give you his number. Give me your number and I’ll let him know about your call. Then maybe he’ll call you back, would that be okay?
M: Sure, my number is 5834987. It would be great if he could call me within the next half hour.
-Why doesn’t she give out Mr. Bennett’s number? –She needs more details.
M1: That was a great dinner. Here, put away your wallet, I’ll the bill. M2: You paid last time, this time is my turn to pay. M1: Hey, you don’t have a job, and I do, let me pay. M2:Thanks for the offer, but I can handle it. -Why does he want to pay? –It’s his turn to pay.
M1: Wait, let’s flip for it.
M2: Flip for it? What does that mean?
M1: Do you see this corn? This side is heads and the opposite is tails. I’ll flip up in the air. If it comes down with heads facing up, I’ll pay. If tails are the up, you can pay. M2: OK, that’s fine with me.
-How are they going to decide who is going to pay? –They are going to flip a corn.
M1: Look, it’s heads up, so I’ll pay. M2: Thanks, it’s very nice of you. M1: It’s my pleasure.
W: Do you want anything else, Sir? Would you like to see the desserts menu?
M: No, thanks, I’m ready for the check. Here is my credit card. W: I’m sorry, Sir, but we don’t take credit cards.
M: You’re joking, right?
W: No, sir. I’m not joking. Do you see that sign? It says cash only. M: I didn’t see it when I came in. I don’t have enough cash to pay the bill. -How did he plan to pay? –He planned to pay by credit card. -Why can’t he pay?
–He doesn’t have enough cash.
W: There is a bank down the street. If you let me hold your driver’s license, you can go and get the cash. M: OK, I hope the bank is open.
W: The bank is closed, but you can use the ATM to get your cash. -Where can he get the cash?
–He can get the cash at an ATM down the street. He has to leave his driver’s license with the waiter.
