Hello. Hello.

Yes, I believe it was Tolstoy who said... Oh, it seems we have a visitor. I'm sorry, myself and Maurice were just engaged in a serious discussion

about books and such. We didn't hear you come in.

Wait a second. You said it was Tolstoy who said what?

Oh, never mind that now, Maurice.

When have you read Tolstoy?

Shut up, Maurice.

Why are you speaking in that weird voice? When did...? I don't remember this conversation at all.

Don't let me disturb you. I just wanted to come...

Oh, don't be silly, you never disturbed us.

Many people come down here to visit.

ˈmɛni ˈpipəl kəm daʊn hir tɪ ˈvɪzɪt.

What are you talking about? Who comes down? What people? Why are you giving me the secret signal to shut up?

I'm the new head of this department. Is this my office?

Why...? What did she...? Did she just say what...? I am the head of this department.

I thought I was.

Well, it's one of us. It's certainly not her. I'm going to sort this out.
