3. Script
George: Hi Rodrigo! This is George. Rodrigo: Oh!, Hi! What a nice surprise! How is it going? George: Just fine, thanks a lot. Mmm… Are you doing anything on Friday night? Rodrigo: Hmmm…let me think….Friday night? Oh, yes. My grandmother just called to say she was coming to my house. I told her I would pick her up in the airport . She said that would make her happy. She asked me that if I had the chance to go with her to visit some relatives, and I told her that I would go with her. George: Oh! That’s too bad! Rodrigo: Why? George: It’s my birthday. I’m having dinner with some friends and we are going to the discotheque and I thought you could go with us. Rodrigo: What a shame! I’m really sorry, but I won’t be able to go. George: Don’t worry! It’s okay.
