Hi there, can I help you folks?

b

I’m just browsing; seeing what’s on the lot. My daughter wants a car for her birthday, you know how it is. C: Dad! I’m sixteen already and I’m, like, the only one at school who doesn’t have a car!

a

She is right, you know. Kids these days all have cars. Let me show you something we just got in: a 1996 sedan. Excellent gas mileage, it has dual airbags and anti lock brakes; a perfect vehicle for a young driver. C: Dad, I love it! It’s awesome! Can we get this one please?

b

I see... What can you tell me about this one?

a

Oh, that’s just an old World War Two tank that we use for TV commercials. Now about this sedan...

b

Whoa, whoa wait a minute. Tell me more about this tank.

a

Well, Sir, if you are looking for quality and safety then look no further! Three inches of reinforced steel protect your daughter from short range mis- sile attacks.

b

Does the sedan protect her from missile attacks?

a

It does not.

b

Well, I don’t know. Let me sleep on it.

a

Did I mention the tank is a tank?

b

I’ll take it! C: Dad!
