We are going to the game on Friday, but Saturday I'm on duty at the library all day and can't get out of it.

M: Actually I haven't seen her for three years. She lives so far away. But this will be her first time on a college campus, she is still in high school. So she probably enjoys anything on campus. W: Well, there is a music festival in the auditorium. That's a possibility. Only I hope it doesn't snow. M: Well, I'll plan on dropping her off at your place on the way to work, around eleven. But if there is a blizzard, I'll give you a call and see if we can figure something else out. W: Sounds good. Meantime I'll keep Saturday open. We can touch base Friday night when we have a better idea of the forecast. M: I hope this works out. I feel kind of responsible. She won't know a way around. And I want her to have a good time. Anyway I really appreciate your help. I owe you one. W: No problem. I'll talk to you tomorrow. Question: What does the man ask the woman to do? - Show his cousin around the campus. - Go out for a dinner. - Help him finish another term paper.
