Man:

Quick, quick! Get a doctor!

Alice:

She’s just gone for a break. What’s the matter?

Man:

I don’t know. It’s my son. He’s stopped breathing.

Alice:

Oh no! Wait a minute, I’ll just phone for the doctor.

Man:

There’s no time. You have to give him mouth to mouth.

Alice:

But I haven’t done it before!

No, not for real. Wait while I find the phone.

Man:

No! No, you must do it now!
