Q: W: Just one, Mr. Brown. You had a phone call from someone called Smith, Mary Smith. M: Smith? I don't know anyone called Smith. What did she say? W: She wouldn't say anything. But it sounded important. I told her you'd call her as soon as you came back. M: Well, I think I'd better do it then. Have you got her telephone number? W: Yes, it's 44356793. M: Have you written it down? W: I always do. It's on your desk. M: Thank you. What was said before this conversation?
