1. Inviting colleagues

Alex comes home from work in a hurry to find his wife, Pam, is not yet at home. He has invited his boss to dinner. In desperation he throws down his briefcase, takes off his jacket, and goes to take a piece of pa­per off a notice board in the kitchen. While reading the paper, he puts a sausepan in the sink, turns on the tap and then goes to the refrig­erator. He opens the door, takes out an uncooked pie, which he then puts in the oven. After turning on the oven, he puts on an apron, takes some potatoes from a cupboard and starts peeling them.


Pam: Alex! I'm back.

She comes into the kitchen.

Pairv Hi.

Alex: Where on earth have you been?

Pam: I've been working. I had to finish the Burgess de­signs by this evening.

Alex: The potatoes are done, and the pie's in the oven.

Pam: Good.

Alex: Couldn't it have waited until tomorrow? They are only sketches. Pam starts cutting the potatoes.

Pam: No, it couldn't wait until tomorrow because they had to be delivered then. And they may be only sketches to you, Alex, but they're very important to me.

Alex: Well, I don't have the boss to dinner every day of the week.

Pam: No, thank God! Alex glares at her.

Pam: I don't know what you're panicking for anyway. Eve­rything's prepared. By the way, he's coming with his wife, isn't he?

Alex: Oh no, he's coming on his own. His wife can't make it.

Pam: Oh, that'll be fun for me.

Alex: What?

Pam: Nothing.

Set the table then.

Alex goes to prepare the table.
