I pushed the call button to get the attention of the flight attendant.
Flight attendant: Yes? What can I do for you?
Hal: It’s very cold in the cabin. Is it possible to get a blanket?
Flight attendant: We’re out of blankets, but here’s a pillow.
Hal: Okay, thanks. I was asleep during the meal service. Could I get a meal?
Flight attendant: We don’t have any more of the Baked Chicken. We only have the Bean Salad left.
Hal: Oh, okay, I’ll take that. Could I also get a drink?
Flight attendant: What would you like?
Hal: What do you have?
Flight attendant: The complimentary drinks are listed in our in-flight magazine. Beer, wine, and other cocktails are $4.
Hal: I’ll have a diet soda.
Flight attendant: We’re out of diet soda.
Hal: How about just some water? What’s that?
Flight attendant: That’s turbulence. Make sure your seatbelt is fastened.
Hal: Could I get an airsickness bag, please?
Flight attendant: I’m sorry, but we’re out of those, too.
