Contoh 1
Assistant: “Alright Mr. Geller! Right this way! So. How dark do you wanna be? We have one, two or three.”
Ross: “Well... I like how you look, what are you?”
Assistant: “Puerto Rican.”
Ross: “Two, I think a two.”
Assistant: “ You’ve got to face the red light. When the red light goes on the spraying is about to start so close your eyes. When the spraying stops, count to five. Pat yourself down to avoid drip marks then turn around so we can get your back. Got it?”
Ross: “Spray, count, pat, then turn, spray, count and pat.”
Assistant: “Wow, you catch on quick.”
Ross: “Well, I have a Ph.D. so...”
(Ross takes his bathrobe off and he enters the tanning booth. He stands up in front of the red light and the sprayer starts and sprays his face and torso.)
Ross: “One Mississipi, two Mississipi, three. Mis, wait! Wait! I’m not I’ve not finished counting!” (He leaves the booth, the assistant enters the room.)
Ross: “You sprayed my front twice!”
Assistant: “You’ve never turned.”
Ross: “No, I barely even got to three mississippi.”
Assistant: “ Mississippi? I said count to five!”
Ross: “Mississippilesly? Well, how bad is it?”
Assistant: “Ain’t that bad yet, but it keeps getting darker for the next four hours.”
Ross: “So, how dark is it gonna get?”
Assistant: “You got sprayed with two two’s and..”
Ross: “I’m a four?”
Assistant: “Yeah, but you’re back’s a zero. You’re gonna wanna even that out the back wall! How do I know when it’s gonna start? Hello? (He slowly turns and the spraying begins, on his face.) Ah, oh, ah! (He turns, but then he turns again and is sprayed in the front again.) Ah! (He spits and angrily goes out of the spray-on tan booth and the assistant enters the room) The same thing happened again!”
Assistant: “You got two more twos?”
Ross: “I’m an eight!”
Contoh 2
Cecily: “Pray let me introduce myself to you. My name is Cecily Cardew.”
Gwendolen: “Cecily Cardew? What a very sweet name! Something tells me that we are going to be great friends. I like you already more than I can say. My first impressions of people are never wrong.”
Cecily: “How nice of you to like me so much after we have known each other such a comparatively short time, pray sit down.”
Gwendolen: “I may call you Cecily, may I not?’
Cecily: “With pleasure!”
Gwendolen: “And you will always call me Gwendolen, won’t you?”
Cecily: “If you wish.”
Gwendolen: “Then that is all quite settled, is it not?”
Cecily: “I hope so.”
Gwendolen: “Perhaps this might be a favourable opportunity for my mentioning who I am. My father is Lord Bracknell. You have never heard of papa, I suppose?”
Cecily: “I don’t think so.”
Gwendolen: “Outside the family circle, papa, I am glad to say, is entirely unknown. I think that is quite as it should be. The home seems to me to be the proper sphere for the man. And certainly once a man begins to neglect his domestic duties he becomes painfully effeminate, does he not?
And I don’t like that. It makes men so very attractive. Cecily, mamma, whose views on education are remarkably strict, has brought me up to be extremely short-sighted; it is part of her system; so do you mind my looking at you through my glasses?”
Cecily: “Oh! Not at all, Gwendolen. I am very fond of being looked at.”
Gwendolen: “You are here on a short visit, I suppose.”
Cecily: “Oh no! I live here.”
Gwendolen: “Really? Your mother, no doubt, or some female relative of advanced years, resides here also?”
Cecily: “Oh no! I have no mother, nor, in fact, any relations.”
Gwendolen: “Indeed?
Cecily: “My dear guardian, with the assistance of Miss Prism, has the arduous task of looking after me.”
Gwendolen: “Your guardian?”
Cecily: “Yes, I am Mr. Worthing’s ward.”
Gwendolen: “Oh! It is strange he never mentioned to me that he had a ward. How secretive of him! He grows more interesting hourly. I am not sure, however, that the news inspires me with feelings of unmixed delight.
I am very fond of you, Cecily; I have liked you ever since I met you! But I am bound to state that now that I know that you are Mr. Worthing’s ward, I cannot help expressing a wish you were well, just a little older than you seem to be and not quite so very alluring in appearance. In fact, if I may speak candidly.”
Cecily: “Pray do! I think that whenever one has anything unpleasant to say, one should always be quite candid.”
Gwendolen: “Well, to speak with perfect candour, Cecily, I wish that you were fully forty-two, and more than usually plain for your age. Ernest has a strong upright nature. He is the very soul of truth and honour.
Disloyalty would be as impossible to him as deception. But even men of the noblest possible moral character are extremely susceptible to the influence of the physical charms of others. Modern, no less than Ancient History, supplies us with many most painful examples of what I refer to. If it were not so, indeed, History would be quite unreadable.”
Cecily: “I beg your pardon, Gwendolen, did you say Ernest?”
Gwendolen: “Yes.”
Cecily: “Oh, but it is not Mr. Ernest Worthing who is my guardian. It is his brother his elder brother.”
Gwendolen: “Ernest never mentioned to me that he had a brother.”
Cecily: “I am sorry to say they have not been on good terms for a long time.”
Gwendolen: “Ah! That accounts for it. And now that I think of it I have never heard any man mention his brother. The subject seems distasteful to most men.”
Cecily: “You have lifted a load from my mind. I was growing almost anxious. It would have been terrible if any cloud had come across a friendship like ours, would it not? Of course you are quite, quite sure that it is not Mr. Ernest Worthing who is your guardian?”
Cecily: “Quite sure, In fact, I am going to be his.”
