[Q]: M: Well, let me look at it. Hmm, it seems that it just needs a new battery. W: Oh, that's really. I got some water on it last week and I was afraid that it might ruin the watch. M: How much is a new battery? M: It's 6.99, and we not only change a battery but also guarantee it for a year. And if you have the watch cleaned here, we can guarantee it for an additional three months. W: That sounds like a good deal. I'll get my battery here. When will it be ready? M: Usually I can do it right away but now I'm repairing lots of watches and I am way behind. Can you leave your watch here until 5 PM? W: Okey, see you then. What was said before this conversation?

Problem: Daughter: Coming. Oh, I'm starving. [Good, good.] Oh yuck! What's that? Father: Ah, now don't complain! Daughter: But what is it, and where is mom? Father: Now, mom put me in charge of dinner because she's not feeling well tonight. Daughter: But what is it ... and that smell! Father: It's pizza. I just followed an old family recipe here, and ... Daughter: Let me see that ... Oh, Dad. [What?] You're missing a page! Father: Oh, uh, well, uh ... well I couldn't find the second page of the recipe, but don't worry. I have plenty of experience around the house. Plenty of experience cooking. Daughter: That's not what mom says. Father: Well, wait, wait, here let me try a piece first. Here, let me, let me cool this off here. Ohhh, yeah. Oh, this is great stuff. Daughter: Yeah right. Why are you making that face? Father: Well, well, it's just, just a little rich for me. That's all. Daughter: Let me try it Dad. Uh. Dad. You put a little too much salt in it and besides it's burned. [Well ... ] And what's that? Father: Oh, well, well, that's just part of my own adaptation to the recipe. I added some pumpkin. Daughter: Oh, not another one of your surprises. Pumpkin doesn't go on pizza!
