WAITRESS: There you go. MARIO: Thank you.

SONYA: Thanks. So, what are you going to have? MARIO: Cheese omelette looks good.

SONYA: Hmm. Yeah, it does, but I think I'm going to have the soup and

sandwich special. WAITRESS: Can I take your order?

MARIO: Could I have the cheese omelette and a salad? And do you have

any Thousand Island dressing? WAITRESS: No. I'm sorry, we don't. Would you

like French dressing instead?'

MARIO: Yes, thank you. SONYA: Do you have any chicken noodle soup?

WAITRESS: Yes, we do. SONYA: Oh, great. Okay. Well, I will have

the chicken noodle soup and an egg salad sandwich, please.

WAITRESS: Anything to drink? SONYA: I'll have a coffee.

MARIO: I'll have some, too. SONYA: Oh, excuse me!

WAITRESS: Yes? SONYA: Could we get some water as well, please?

WAITRESS: Water? No problem. SONYA: [Looks at her watch] So, how long do

we have for lunch? MARIO: I have to be back in about half an

hour. SONYA: Well, I hope the service is fast. MARIO: The place isn't very full.

SONYA: Right. [Later]

MARIO: Service sure is slow. SONYA: Oh, here she comes.

WAITRESS: Here we go, one soup. SONYA: Thanks. Oh, excuse me. Could I get

some crackers for my soup, please?

WAITRESS: Sure, right away. MARIO: How's the soup?

SONYA: It needs some salt. MARIO: Oh, here. There isn't any.

SONYA: I'll ask her. WAITRESS: And here's your omelette and the

sandwich. [To Sonya] Is everything okay?

SONYA: Could we get some salt, please? WAITRESS: Sure.

SONYA: And also some crackers? WAITRESS: No problem.

MARIO: I don't believe this. SONYA: What's the problem?

WAITRESS: Salt and crackers. MARIO: Excuse me. Could I get a fork?

WAITRESS: Oh. MARIO: And we still didn't get our water.

WAITRESS: I'll get it right away. SONYA: Oh, and I need a napkin, please.

WAITRESS: Sure thing. SONYA: [Looks at her watch] I don't think

we're going to make this in half an hour.

MARIO: Well, we're not going to if I have to wait for a fork.

SONYA: Well here, use mine. I don't need it. MARIO: Thanks. This restaurant is terrible.

SONYA: Well, your omelette looks good. MARIO: There isn't any cheese in my cheese

omelette. SONYA: No way! There's got to be some.

MARIO: Well, there isn't any. Look! SONYA: Okay. Well, all right. Complain to

the waitress. MARIO: Miss! Miss!

WAITRESS: Is everything all right? MARIO: Well, no! We still don't have our water.

I had to borrow my friend's fork, and this cheese omelette doesn't

have any cheese in it at all.

WAITRESS: Oh. Sorry. I'll return it to the kitchen.

MARIO: Never mind. My lunch hour is over. Could you just bring the bill,

please! WAITRESS: Right away.

MARIO: [To himself] Right away, right. SONYA: Next time, I choose the restaurant.

Okay?
