Alice: ‘Hey’
Waitress: ‘Hello’
Alice: ‘We ordered our coffees over 20 mins ago and still haven’t got them’.

Alice: ‘Oh yes, I can see that…Well we can’t wait any longer so can you cancel them’.
Waitress: ‘I’m sorry we can’t do that’.
Alice: ‘Oh for Pete’s sake…fine here…’
ALICE REACHES INTO HER WALLET AND PULLS OUT A $20 AND HANDS IT TO THE WAITRESS. ALICE TURNS AND WALKS BACK TO THE TABLE AND PICKS UP HER COAT.

Alice: ‘We can’t stay any longer…I don’t worry I paid for them’.
Hattie: ‘But we didn’t even get them’
Alice: ‘Well, we still have to pay for them’
