VICKI:Picture this:You’re standing in the rain waiting for your date
MATT:You’ve been waiting for a long time.
VICKI:Where are they?
VICKI:It looks like they’ve stood you up!
MATT:Yup. They’ve arranged a date, but they’re not coming - they’ve stood you up.
VICKI:It’s horrible being stood up.
MATT:You feel that they’ve let you down!
VICKI:They’ve not done what they said they’d do.
