W: Hello, sir. What can I do for you?
M: Hi, I bought this cassette player here about six months ago. And it just ruined four of my favoritecassettes last week.
W: Oh dear, I’m sorry.
M: (19)So I want you to fix it. I’m sure there’s no problem, right?
W: Your sales slip, please?
M: Yeah, here it is.
W: I’m sorry, sir. (20)Your guarantee is over.
M: Well, it ran out ten days ago, but I’m sure that you’ll fix the machine for free, because the machine was obviously defective when I bought it.
W: Please, I’m sorry, sir. Your guarantee has run out. There’s nothing I can do.
M: No. Look, I didn’t drop it off a building or anything. I mean, what difference can ten days make?
W: Sir, I’m sorry. It’s too late.
M: It actually ate the tapes. I mean, all the tapes were destroyed.
W: Well, sir, you should have brought it in before your guarantee ran out. (21)It was guaranteed for six months. I’m sorry, there’s nothing I can do.
M: Paying for this is adding insult to the injury. I mean, surely you’re going to make good on this cassette player. It’s a good cassette player, but it’s just defective. I mean, I can’t pay for this.
W: Well, sir, I’m sorry, you should have brought it in earlier.
M: But surely you won’t hold me to ten days on this.
W: (22)Sir, the rules are the rules. I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do.
