Story
Ally: Oh my gosh, I’m so excited. I bet it’s going to be so good.
Greg: I’ve read a few reviews and all the critics seem to love it. They say it’s the best movie that’s come out in years.
Ally: Yeah, I mean, and the fact that we’ve been trying to get tickets for a month now but all the shows were sold out speaks volumes, don’t you think?
Greg: Yeah, totally. Hey, should we go wait inside? I don’t know about you but I’m freezing.
Ally: Uh, uh. Not until they start letting people in. Look at them, they‘re all packed like sardines in there. Plus, they should be letting us in soon.
Greg: Oh, look at that, here we go.
Ally: See, I told ya! You got the tickets?
Greg: Here they are. B 23 and B 24.
Ally: Awesome! Aren’t those like the VIP seats or something?
Greg: Uhm, I don’t know about that but they’re these ones.
Ally: Oh my gosh. These seats. They’re amazing. Look, I can stretch my legs and everything. And will you look at this? They’re so roomy! I can put all my stuff right next to me! Okay, now I’m afraid I’m going to fall asleep. These things are more comfortable than my bed! I love it, Greg. Should we get some popcorn-
Stranger: Hey, man, scoot over. These are our seats.
Greg: What? No, they’re not.
Stranger: Uh, yeah. B 23 and B 24.
Greg: No, look. Here are our tick- Oh, damn it.
Ally: What?
Greg: I’m sorry, man. We’ll move.
Ally: Where are we sitting?
Greg: Z 23 and Z 24.
Ally: Z? Like in the last row?! Who confuses a B with a Z?
Greg: They used a weird font, okay? Come on, it’s not going to be too bad.
Ally: No way, these teeny-tiny things are our seats?
Greg: Okay, don’t compare them with the other ones, cuz those ones were amazing. Just look on the bright side. We still get to see the movie. Or at least some of it because this pillar is right in front of us, I guess.
Ally: Oh my gosh, these seats are so uncomfortable.
Greg: Well, at least you’re not going to fall asleep, right?
Ally: No, definitely not…
