Too much brainstorming

"You' re wrecking my botany experiment! Don't breach the large tank with the soil samples in it!" Shawn yelled as he bobbed his head back down behind the booth in order to avoid another blunt object that was flying across the room like a blur.

"I don't care about your stupid plant and soil experiments!" Said Michelle. "There is no longer any bond between us. I am sick of all of your boasting about boring into a mountain in Montana to find your bonanza!"

"But it's really there! And I can't cancel our flight booking anymore. We have to go!" Shawn yelled back. Michelle's only response was to bombard him even more with whatever item she could find. She had left the boundary of polite conversation hours ago and was now bound to make Shawn pay for all of the hours of pointless brainstorming sessions he had forced her into for this stupid idea.

"You can't boycott your future, Michelle." Shawn boomed. "There is endless bounty there for both of us. I know it's a bold adventure, but if we succeed, then you can buy all of the brand name clothing you want when we get back!"

"I don't believe you!" Michelle yelled back. And then she stopped throwing things and started to cry. Shawn crawled out across the border of his safe zone and boosted himself up to look Michelle in the face.

That was when a huge plate crashed on his head and knocked him out.

"That was a bonus!" Said Michelle as she looked at him on the ground and got up to leave.



被献计献策惹怒了

"你在破坏我的植物学实验!千万别打破那个大罐子，那里边装着泥土样品!"肖恩一边

怒吼，一边把头很快移到货摊背后，以便避开另外一个从房间那边横飞过来的黑团一样的硬物。

"我才不管你那些愚蠢的植物和泥土实验呢!"米歇尔说，"我俩之间不再有任何联系了!

你整天吹牛，说是要在蒙大拿的一座山上钻个洞寻找财源，我算是受够了。" ．

"可那儿确实有财源!而且我们预定的航班也不能取消了，咱们必须去。"肖恩回敬道。米歇尔的惟一反应就是用手边能找到的东西更狠地攻击他。几个小时前，她就已经离开礼貌谈话的边界了，现在她一定要肖恩为几个小时的毫无意义的献策付出代价，为了这个愚蠢的想法，他硬逼着她想办法。

"米歇尔，你不能抵制你的未来。"肖恩低声说，"那儿会给我们俩无尽的礼物。我知道这是一次大胆的冒险，可一旦咱们成功，回来时你就可以买所有你一直想买的名牌衣服了!"

"我才不相信你呢!"米歇尔喊道。然后她就不再扔东西，而是哭了起来。肖恩爬出来越

过安全区域的边界，抬起头来正视米歇尔的脸。

就在这时，一个大盘子击中了他的脑袋，把他给砸昏了。

"这是给你的奖赏!"米歇尔说，他看了看躺在地上的肖恩，然后起身离开了。
