Fly In My Soup

A new story from Jim Tripp. Notice that there are no targets. Anne is doing that too. I think Step 1 may be more for when we are being observed, to impress people with all the TPR and fun energy. Or if we feel, of course, that they need the reps to set up the story. What is new is that we are now looking at Step 1 as optional. I think this started with Chris Stoltz.
(Gist: A couple goes out to eat. They each order something. Each finds something gross in their food.)
Simplest version:
Lance and Harlee are at a restaurant. Lance wants potato soup and Harlee wants eggs, bacon and toast.
Lance eats a little bit. He eats more. There is a tooth in the soup!
Harlee eats a little bit of eggs. She eats more. There is a cockroach in her eggs!
Simple version:
Lance and Harlee go to a restuarant. Lance wants potato soup and Harlee wants eggs, bacon and toast.
Lance eats a little. He eats more. There is a tooth in the soup! He says to the waitress, “There’s a tooth in my soup.”
Harlee eats a little bit of eggs. She eats more. There is a cockroach in her eggs! She says to the waitress, “There’s a cockroach in my eggs.”
Somewhat simple version:
Lance and Harlee arrive at a restaurant. Lance orders potato soup and Harlee orders eggs, bacon and toast.
Lance tries the soup. He loves it. He eats more. Then, he finds a tooth in the soup! He complains to the waitress, “There’s a tooth in my soup.”
Harlee tries her bacon first. Then she tries the eggs and toast. She loves it. She eats more. Then, she finds a cockroach in her eggs. She complains to the waitress, “There’s a cockroach in my eggs.”
