- 1:52Speaker 1: I call the restaurant that we went to to see
- 1:55Speaker 1: if anybody found it there.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Would you please? It'sincidentally, this is the plot of the.

- 2:56Speaker 1: ring dish, in the ring dish in your bathroom. It's
- 3:00Speaker 1: right here.

- 3:44Speaker 2: I have no idea what the point of those, what
- 3:46Speaker 2: the point of Bridget Jones diary is?
- 3:49Speaker 1: Well, so the the first one is based they're all
