Blind Date

Pairs of chairs in rows facing each other. Men sit in one row and women in the other. They are on a blind date.

Wife: (sitting in the other row, but not opposite her husband at the end of the row, repeats the same action of talking on the phone and covering her ear with her other hand) That’s okay babe, something has … umm … come up. I have things to do.
