5IM:ย I really am very sorry about all this. Weโll try to get you home as soon as possible.
EsTELLE:ย Oh, donโt worryโto be honest, this has all been rather exciting. Not much exciting happens most days when youโre nearly ninety!
5IM:ย Of course, yes. Well, my colleague and I would very much like to ask you to look at this drawing. We found it in the stairwell and we think it shows a monkey, a frog, and an elk. Do you recognize itแนข
EsTELLE:ย No, no, Iโm afraid not. Is that really supposed to be an elkแนข
5IM:ย I donโt know, I really donโt. To be honest, Iโm not sure it really matters. Would you mind telling me what you were doing at the apartment viewingแนข
