Peacock: No, no, I think you actually helped by waking up the students!

Jessica: It’s so embarrassing. I shouldn’t have reacted like that.

Peacock: But may I ask, Jessica, what made you scream?

Jessica: Well, there was a monkey in the window next to you.

Peacock: A monkey? In Oxford?

Jessica: Yes, it must have been the one that escaped from the zoo.

Peacock: Well, I’ll be a monkey’s uncle!

Bill: Thank you, Angie. It’s a pleasure to be here.

Angie: Wow, I’m getting goose bumps. I’ve been a huge fan of the Desperate Rats for decades.

Bill: Cool. Out of curiosity, which song do you like the most?

Angie: That’s a tough question. You have so many great songs. But if I have to choose… “Marlborough Fair.” Yes.

Bill: That’s my favorite too!

Carolyn: Really?

Andrew: Actually, it’s the only vegan ramen I’ve ever had. Very tasty.

Carolyn: Yes, there aren’t too many of these kinds of shops in this town.

Andrew: I’m glad I found it.

Carolyn: Me too. Would you like a kaedama now? It’s an additional 100 yen, however.

Andrew: Sorry, what did you say?

Carolyn: Oh, kaedama means “an extra helping of noodles.”

Andrew: No, thank you. That was plenty for me.

Sarah: Professor Brendan Peacock?

Peacock: Yes?

Sarah: This is Detective Sarah Tomlinson with the City of London Police. There has been a development in your case.

Peacock: You mean the break-in at my office last year?

Sarah: Yes, sir. We’ve located the stolen artifacts.

Peacock: Where were they found?

Sarah: In an apartment in the East End of London, sir.

Peacock: Who do you think is behind all this?

Sarah: We have some leads, sir. We’re investigating them right now.

Peacock: Thank you.
