SCRIPT:

M: Hi. I have a reservation for tonight. Charles Nelson.

W: Okay. Mr. Nelson. That's a room for five guests under your name.

M: No. No. Hold on. There must be some mistake.

W: Okay. Let's check this again. Okay, Mr. Charles C. Nelson for tonight ...

M: Ah. There's the problem. My name is Charles Nelson, not Charles C. Nelson.

W: Okay. Let me check this again. Oh. Charles Nelson. A room for one for the 19th ...

M: Wait! It was for tonight. Not tomorrow night.

W: Hum. I don't think we have any rooms for tonight.

M: Ah come on! You must have something. Anything.

W: Well. Let me check my computer here. Ah! There has been a cancellation for this evening. A honeymoon suite is now available.

M: Great. I'll take it.

W: But I'll have to charge you two hundred and fifty dollars for the night.

M: Ah. I should get a discount for the inconvenience.

W: Well. A ten percent discount plus a ticket for a free continental breakfast.

M: Hey. Isn't the breakfast free anyway? I want to talk to the manager.

W: Wait, wait Mr. Nelson. I think I can give you an additional 15% discount and I'll throw in a free room for the next time you visit us.

M: That'll be a long time.

SCRIPT:

Police Officer: Okay. May I see your driver's license please?

Driver: What? Did I do anything wrong?

Police Officer: License, please. And your car registration.

Driver: Oh, yeah. Yeah, here it is.

Police Officer: Sir, did you realize you were speeding in a school zone?

Driver: What? No, I didn't, but that's probably because my odometer is broken, I mean, malfunctioning.

Police Officer: Yes, you were going 50 miles per hour in a 20 miles per hour zone. And, you failed to come to a complete stop at the intersection back there.

Driver: Rolling stops don't count?

Police Officer: And, one of your break lights is out, you're not wearing a seat belt, and your driver's license expired six months ago.

Driver: And your name is ... Officer Smith? Hey, are you related to the Smiths in town? My wife's cousin's husband (I think his name is Fred) works for the police department here. Or was that the fire department? Anyway, I thought you might be good pals, and you know ...

Police Officer: Hey, are you trying to influence an officer? I could have this car impounded right now because of these infractions.

Driver: No, of course not.

Police Officer: Okay, then. Here's your ticket. You can either appear in court to pay the fine or mail it in. Have a nice day. Driver: Do you take cash?

SCRIPT:

W: James, do you have a minute?

M: Oh. Laura. Sure. What's up?

W: Well, I've been meaning to talk to you about the situation in the office.

M: I'm not in here very often. It's so noisy that I can't work.

W: That's exactly what I'm getting at. We're supposed to be able to do our preparation and marking in that office, but Taylor constantly has students coming in to get help with his course.
