Episode 81: Hello stranger!
Khalid: Hello, stranger!
Helen: Ooh, hi Khalid! How are you? It's been ages, hasn't it?
Khalid: I know! I haven't seen you since the barbecue.
Helen: Oh yeah, the barbecue. It was a smashing day wasn't it? But poor Alice was really ill the next day.
Khalid: Was she?
Helen: She had to go to the doctors. But she's as right as rain now. Anyway Khalid, what's happening with you?
Khalid: Well, I've just enrolled on a part-time course here at the university, and I'm still a student at the language school!
Helen: Wow! So you're studying hard?
Khalid: Of course! But it's not easily to study at home. My flatmates are really rowdy and I can never get any peace and quiet.
Helen: Hmm... I might be able to help you with that.
Episode 82: A tour of the flat
Helen: So that's Tim's room, the bathroom's over there, and your bedroom is here. It's got a desk and chair and all that, so you shouldn't need any more furniture.
Khalid: Ok, that looks ok. erm, what do you guys do about housework?
Alice: Everybody kind of chips in, don't they Tim?
Tim: Yes, Alice, we all do our bit.
Alice: We keep all the cleaning stuff in this cupboard here.
Khalid: Ok, I see.
Helen: So, what do you think?
Khalid: It's a very nice room, and you guys are great and everything, but I have to say, I think it's a little bit pricey. I wonder if it would be possible to reduce the rent a little bit?
Helen: Well, I'm afraid it isn't up to me Khalid, I'll have to ask my dad about that.
Episode 83: The rent
Helen: Dad, Khalid likes the room, and he wants to move in, but he wants to know if you can knock a bit off the rent.
Helen's dad: Helen, you know I can't allow it. Everybody has to pay the same.
Helen: I know dad, but we put the advert in the Gazette for 2 weeks, and he's the only person who's anywhere near suitable. It's going to cost a fortune if you have to keep advertising.
Helen's dad: But why couldn't you find anybody through the ad?
Helen: I don't know dad, I can't make people call. All I know is, Khalid's just right for the room, but if you want him to move in, you'll have to let him have a discount.
Helen's dad: Well, I suppose I could let him have a small reduction. But what are you going to say to Alice and Tim?
Episode 84: A visit from the police
Police 1: You see sir, we've received a complaint from a Mr Hall about a gentleman's watch that you sold to his wife just before Christmas. It would appear that the authenticity of the watch is in doubt.
Tim: Oh - Oh, I see...
Police 1: Would you mind answering a few questions for us?
Tim: Well, no, but I think you should be talking to my boss about this.
Police 2: We've already spoken to your boss sir, at some length as it happens. That's why we'd like to talk to you now. So, if you wouldn't mind answering a few questions...
Tim: What, here?
Police 2: We can always go down to the station if you think you'd be more comfortable there, sir...
Tim: No, no, that won't be necessary. Would you like to come through to the office?
Episode 85: Talking to the police
Police 1: So sir: a number of fake watches have been handed in to us over the last few months, and almost all of them have been traced to this establishment. Can you explain this?
Tim: Err, I'm not sure. We do use a reputable supplier.
Police 1: Indeed. Your supplier wrote to you to tell you that some of the broken watches that you returned to them were fakes, didn't they?
Tim: Well yes, they did, but... look officer, I'm only the assistant manager.
Police 1: And your point is?
Tim: Well, like I said, I think you need to speak to my boss.
Police 2: And like I said sir, we have talked to your boss. Apparently, you are in charge of all the watches that come through this department.
Tim: Well, technically, yes, that's true.
Police 2: So, enlighten me: where did all these fake watches come from?
Episode 86: Another date
Paul: I'm pleased everything's out in the open now Alice. I didn't like hiding things from you.
Alice: You should have told me right from the word go, Paul. It was the way I found out that made me so upset.
Paul: I know Alice, and I'm sorry. But things are going to be very different from now on. I've got a good feeling about you and me, do you know that?
Alice: I'm glad.
Paul: Oh my goodness, is that the time?
Alice: What's the matter?
Paul: Oh gosh, Alice, I've got to fly, I'm picking Ellie up from school and I'm think I'm going to be late!
Alice: Aren't you going to finish your coffee?
Paul: There's no time, I'm late as it is, bye!
Alice: Bye. Paul.
