You agreed to meet some Italian friends at an Italian theater across town. Your wife has taken two hours to get dressed and the babysitter has not shown up. You are terribly late and afraid you might miss the Italian play! Frantic, you call the Italian babysitter to find out where she is! However, you have no idea how to ask in Italian if she is coming so you just mumble in English. Hearing the hesitation in your voice and knowing some English, the babysitter tells you she is arriving soon! Relieved, you suddenly face the fact that you still don’t know how to tell your friends you are hurrying in Italian. Just then, the babysitter bursts through the door! You thank her in Italian and begin to head out the door. She stops you and tells you that for an extra ten Euros she will call your friends on her cell phone to tell them you are on your way in Italian! Ooh, that’s going to cost you! What an expensive little Italian entrepreneur!
