A: I'm Janet Smith in apartment 23. Is this the apartment manager?
B: Hello. What can I do for you today?
A: My living room window is broken.
B: Are you serious? Do you know what happened?
A: I am not really sure, because I was out when it occurred.
B: Do you have any idea who might have been behind this?
A: Something tells me it might be some of the kids in the complex.
B: What led you to think it might be the kids in this building?
A: I found a baseball near the broken glass.
B: Well, you can't ignore a baseball in your living room, can you?
A: I saw them in the lot just before I went out.
B: Do you know any of them?
A: No, I didn't pay any attention to who they were.
B: I'll call the window repairman, but it'll probably take a couple of days.
A: I could get fast service if I call a friend of mine.
B: I don't have a problem with that. Let me look at the damage first.
A: Okay, I'm waiting for you. But who does my friend give the bill to?
B: Since the kids broke it, your friend can bill me.
A: Whew! I was worried that I would have to pay for it.
B: Believe me, if I find out which kid broke the window, I'll bill his parents.
