当汤姆和卡罗尔正在吃午饭时,萨姆又来到了他们家,但萨姆拒绝和他们一起用餐。他不想吃卡罗尔做的食物,因为他对她的烤牛肉和土豆有着糟糕的记忆。萨姆说他已经十二点半吃过午饭了。卡罗尔给他端来了咖啡,但萨姆说他已经吃过午饭后的那杯咖啡了。当时客厅非常凌乱,因为这对夫妇正在收拾他们的行李箱。卡罗尔解释说他们明天要去度假。汤姆询问了萨姆的假期情况。萨姆回答说他今年已经度过了假期,只是待在家里而已!
Sam came to Tom and Carol's house again while they were having lunch, but Sam refused to join them. He did not want to eat Carol's food because he had a terrible memory of her roast beef and potatoes. Sam said that he had already had lunch at half past twelve. Carol offered him coffee, but Sam said that he had just had a cup after his lunch. At that time, the living room was very untidy because the couple were packing their suitcases. Carol explained that they were going to have a holiday tomorrow. Tom asked about Sam’s holiday. Sam replied that he had already had his holiday this year, and he just stayed at home!
