Colin:  Iknow.

Lynda: So somehow you’ve got to persuade her.

Lynda: Then sell her an idea.

Colin: Don’t patronise me.

Lynda: Sell her the idea that if something’s happening, she should tellsomeone.

Colin: You’re patronising me.

Lynda: I'm not! Colin, I’m serious about this. You're right - you’re asalesman. You're a very good salesman, you're the best salesman I’ve ever met.So sell!

Colin: Right, Lynda, sure. I’ll have a few posters printed up, shall I? (getsup) Oh, how about a couple of tasteful little adverts? Oh, I know a hall in thetown centre we could use. How about that? 

Lynda: You’re not thinking, Colin.

Colin: I’m not thinking? Sorry, Lynda, I’ve had enough of this. (heads for thedoor) How about a TV commercial? Or some jazzy little pamphlets? How about abrochure with four-coloured pictures?
