Ask What You Want Answered

-Ring ring ring-

The caller ID reads Wireless Caller, so that's no help. “Hello, Dominion of Movies.”

Yeah, how long between your new releases?'

Er...usually I get them in every week on Tuesday, but every now and then I've got Friday releases as well.”

No, that's not what I meant.”

A pregnant pause.

Fernando breaks it. “So what do you mean?”

How long do you have your new releases?”

I'm not sure what you're asking here. Do you want to know how long rentals are on new releases?”

Yeah. That's what I said.”

Fernando opts not to challenge the man's wrongly held beliefs. “Generally for one night, but they can be rented for more than one if desired.”

Oh.” He hangs up.

Okay then.
