Helen: Tim, what's got into you?
Tim: The promise of two gorgeous, free world cup tickets, that's what!
Alice: That's fantastic. Can I go with you, please?
Tim: No, it's a boy thing ?Michal, ready for action?
Helen: Well that's just typical! You're such a sexist, old-fashioned bore Tim. What makes you think Alice and I don't want to see the match?
Tim: Oh-oh. OK, anything to keep the peace. Sorry Michal.
Michal: Don't worry. Helen, how should we decide who goes with Tim?
Helen: Oh stop trying to get on my good side - it's not working.
Tim: Well?
Helen: There's only one fair way - a raffle.
Tim: OK everyone's name in the hat then.
