G: What? 50 yuan? I think we must pay at least 200 yuan!
H: I’m sorry, but, l really don’t have money. Would you pay for me?
G: l pay for you? You said it’s your treat! [你请客]
H: Help me, please. I’ll give the money back to you tomorrow, I promise.
G: You have said you’ll pay for the meal, but don’t bring enough money, how fun you are! (摸摸口袋)Oh, no! l haven’t bring any money!
W: (走来)Here’s your check, Sir. Please have a look.
H: (无视服务员) Why don’t you carry any money with you?
G: You said it’s your treat!
W: Here’s your check.
H: (无视)You don’t take any money. How can you come here?
G: My home is only 10 minutes’ walk from here.
W: You should pay 240 yuan, Sir.

H: (过了一小会儿)We are safe now. Let’s escape from here.
G: Escape? Will you be afraid if they all the police?
H: So what can we do?
G: You can use your phone to pay.
H: Are you kidding? My iPhone 4S is far more expensive than the meal !
G: You can take it back tomorrow.
H: Hey, since you home is near from here, you can go home to fetch some money. G: What? You said it’s your treat and let me go home to fetch money. I’ll remember you! (转身离开,出教室)
H: (过了一会儿) Err…Waiter, my friend has gone home to fetch money, just wait 10 minutes
