#8 (b). Oh what for a '"Date" for a "Dame"!
Second candidate James hurriedly sits at Maria's table now.
James: Hello! Move over to make some place for me!
Maria: Hello! I am Maria.
James: Do you see a man in a red coat?
Maria: I don't ! But why?
James: Where has he gone?
Maria : Who has gone?
James: The man who followed me.
Maria: Why did he follow you?
James: May be he is wearing a costume now!
Maria: Why are you so nervous?
James: One can never be careful enough with a policeman.
Maria: Do you mean a policeman followed you?
James: of course! Do you see a suspicious man at the bar?
Maria: No! I don't.
James: He is looking at us. He is waiting for the right time.
Maria: The right time for what?
James: The right time to catch me. I will never go back to prison.
Maria: Now you are really scaring me!
James: I knew it was a bad idea to appear in the public.
Maria gasps with shock!
James: Do you have a car which I can use?
Maria: Never in your life! Don't even think of it!
James runs to the door and disappears from her view.
