Darren: Carol... telephone...
Carol: Who is it?
Darren: I don't know. Wait a sec... (to the person on the phone) May I ask who's calling, please? (pause) Carol... it's Susan.
Carol: Oh, I'm in the bathtub. Can you ask her if it's important?
Darren: Sorry Susan, Carol can't come to the phone right now. Is there something I can help you with? (pause) Oh, I see. (to Carol) Carol... she wants to know if the party is tonight or tomorrow night.
Carol: Tell her it's tomorrow night at 8:00 at Jill's house. Tell her to bring a dessert if she wants.
Darren: (to Susan) She said it's tomorrow night at 8:00 at Jill's house. She said you could bring a dessert if you want. (pause) Sure, no problem. Have a good evening. 'Bye.
