M: I asked Linda out yesterday.
W: I can’t believe it! She is gorgeous. Surely she turned you down ...
M: She said yes! We have a date for tonight, so she agreed to meet me here.
W: Really? Where are you taking her?
M: I want everything to be perfect, so I’m taking her to that fancy French restaurant we went to last Thanksgiving.
W: You must be joking! That place costs an arm and a leg!
M: Like I said, I want everything to be perfect, Hmm, I wonder what’s keeping her?
W: Well, you can’t expect her to be absolutely punctual.
M: I told her Friday night at 7:00.
W: Tom, today is Saturday.
M: What? You can’t be serious!
W: She is not coming.
