So, after the camping fiasco...
"I'd love to Laura but... I have this... dinner thing... with my new boss, Helena Cain."
"Really..."
"Er... Um, look, Helena, could I bring a... friend?"
"Yes? Great. Oh, yes, okay... Ms Cain... Not Helena... Yes, okay, I'll remember."
"Bill will have to transfer-- That's not a problem, is it, Laura?"
"No, no... After all, we're just friends."
"Yeah? Oh, yeah... I spose..."
"Well... I'd better get going. Night!"
What will Bill do!?!?!
