                     A few days ago a man phoned from a marketing company and started asking me questions. He
                     wanted to know                               and asked
                                                        .  I don’t like people phoning and asking questions like that,
                     so I told                                                        and ended the call.

                                                                                      Phone me if
                                                                                      there’s a problem.


                           LOUISE     SARAH                      PAUL         SARAH
                     Sarah and Louise are in a restaurant waiting for Paul.
                     SaRaH:  I wonder where Paul is.  He said                                         .
                     LOUISE:  Maybe he got lost.
                     SaRaH:  I don’t think so.  He said                                               .
                             And I told                                                              .
