情景对话
Fredo: (From the walk-in refrigerator)We need to sell these daisies. They're getting a little droopy.
Jill: Maybe we can trim an inch off the bottom and put them in fresh water.
Fredo: Or we can add a vitamin solution to their water.
Jill: That'll work, too. Don't you need to go deliver flowers?
Fredo: Oh, yeah. If I don't go now, it'll take until next Lovers Day to deliver them all.
Jill: Get a move on it. You've got some people to please!
