Checking out

M: Good morning. I’d like to check out.

L: Sure, Mr. Morris. Did you have a good time here?

M: Oh, yes, I did. Everything was excellent. The place, the food, the drinks, the service, the people…

L: Good. So you enjoyed yourself big time.

M: I sure did. I even went to the disco last night and danced like crazy. Oh, what a night! Yeah, you’ve got a nice place here.

L: I’m glad to hear you say so. You were in room 104, right?

M: Yeah. By the way, the room was perfect, too. A magnificent view.

L: Good to hear that, too. Well, here’s the bill from the restaurant, this one’s from the bar and this is for the room. Will you pay cash or credit?

M: Cash. I didn’t bring my credit cards. I left them at home. Stupid, isn’t it?

L: Well, it happens. So, that’ll be 295 dollars all told.

M: Let’s see… Here are three hundred smackers. Keep the change.

L: Thank you so much.

M: That’s all right. I like you.

L: Thanks again. Please, come back soon.

M: I will. Probably next summer. Bye.

L: Good-bye, Mr. Morris.
