LILIANE: Now my dear, you've just got to tell me! Is it true that David's father was a member of an international criminal gang, and that he was murdered by his boss?
JUANITA: Certainly not! I wouldn't have married David if he'd been the son of a criminal. How can you say such a thing?
LILIANE: Sorry my dear, I'm only repeating what I've heard.
DAVID: It’s alright, I'll get it!
JUANITA: No you won't; I will!
JUANITA: Hello!
ANNIE: Hello, Juanita. Annie here.
JUANITA: Annie? What is it? Is something wrong?
ANNIE: No Juanita, everything's fine. How about you?
JUANITA: I'm OK.
ANNIE: Good. Well, can I have a word with David?
JUANITA: What about?
ANNIE: It's nothing important. Could I just speak to him, please?
JUANITA: Very well. David! It's Annie, for you.
DAVID: What? Just coming!
DAVID: Hello, Annie. Where are you calling from?
ANNIE: I'm at home. Look, David, I've got to talk to you urgently.
DAVID: Yeah, sure, of course. But, you know, I don't want any trouble with the police, or anything. What if we met in the park?
ANNIE: Haven't you noticed, David, it's snowing! I'd rather we met at your place. Can I come over in about an hour?
DAVID: OK. It's 188b Mount Street, and it's in the basement. When you get to No. 188b, go down the steps outside...
ANNIE: It's alright, David. I do remember how to get to your apartment…
DAVID: Hello, Annie. Come in.
ANNIE: Thanks.
ANNIE: Hello, Juanita.
JUANITA: Hello. Liliane, this is my sister-in-law, Annie.
LILIANE: How lovely to meet you! So, I hear you're a wildly radical Green.
ANNIE: I guess you could say that, yeah.
LILIANE: How exciting! Do you go around blowing up nuclear power stations?
ANNIE: No. I don't. I edit a magazine and I go around organizing meetings, as a matter of fact.
LILIANE: How boring! It sounds just like my father's business.
ANNIE: Listen David, can we have a word - in private?
LILIANE: How mysterious! How embarrassing!
DAVID: Alright. Why don't you come and say hello to the baby, Annie?
DAVID: Look Annie, if it isn't all that important perhaps we'd better, like, leave it for now, OK? This isn’t a great moment - you know how it is.
ANNIE: I wouldn't have come here if it hadn't been important, would I?
DAVID: Hello, Sigismonda darling. Say hello to your aunt Annie.
ANNIE: I'd rather you didn't call me aunt.
DAVID: What would you rather be called, then - uncle?
ANNIE: Just call me Annie, that's all.
ANNIE: Hello, Sigismonda, nice to see you! Look David, this is hopeless. We'll have to go to a coffee shop or something.
DAVID: Well, I mean, you know...
ANNIE: Please!
