Example Setting: June 5 at 5:30 in the evening. Jane is talking to her friend, Amy, about the graduation dance on June 15. Jane has a date, but Amy hasn't been asked yet and really wants to go with John, a guy in her biology class. Telephone rings. Jane's mother: "Hello." Amy: "Hi is Jane there?" Jane's mother: "Yes, just a minute." Jane: "Hi Amy, has he asked you yet?" Amy: "No, he didn't even make eye contact with me today in biology." Jane: "Well, why don't you just go up to him and ask him to go yourself." Amy: "Are you kidding, he doesn't even know I exist. Besides, I think he likes Renee." Jane: "Renee, no way! Anyway, I know Renee is going to the dance with Mark. Just slip John a note on your way into biology and ask him to go; it's as simple as that." Amy: "Easy for you to say." Jane: "Well, if you won't tell him, I will. Tomorrow I'll tell him during English; he sits right next to me in there. I'll meet you at lunch and tell you what he says." Amy: "Oh, Jane. I'm going to be so embarrassed!" Jane: "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. See you at the usual spot." Amy: "Okay, see ya." Jane: "Bye." Amy: "Bye." Hang up Setting: June 6.
