Script
Angela: I’m thinking about going to Costa Rica…
Trevor: Great. I went to Costa Rica once… but I had a terrible time getting there…
Angela: Oh, yeah? What happened?
Trevor: Well, when I got to the airport, I realized I didn’t have my passport…
Angela: Oh no.
Trevor: So I called a friend… and he broke into my house…got my passport and brought it to me. But I missed that flight so I had to stay overnight⁹ in San Francisco.
Angela: Oh, that’s too bad.
Trevor: Yeah. So I got the flight the next day… and of course on the way we had engine trouble… so we had to stop in Mexico City… I was stuck there for another, like, 22 hours while they got the part.
Angela: Oh, my gosh!
Trevor: And I mean stuck. They wouldn’t even let us out of the airport…
Angela: You’re kidding!
Trevor: I’m telling you. So finally, we, like, after all this time, I get to Costa Rica two days late and –
Angela: And don’t tell me, your luggage isn’t there.
Trevor: You guessed it. I go into the airline office to complain and there was this really wonderful woman working at the counter.
Angela: Oh, yeah?
Trevor: And she was really nice and helped me out…
Angela: Mm-hmm…
Trevor: …and we sort of hit it off…
Angela: Yeah? And then what?
Trevor: About two months later we got married!
