Harry: Yeah, right.

Carlos: Listen guys, that was what I came to talk to you about. At lunch today. Im a caterer, Johnny, I make lunch for all the people who work on the building site next door.

Johnny: I see.

Carlos: Well, there were two of the top managers there.

Olivia (interested): Oh yeah?

Sarah: And?

Carlos: Well, I didnt listen to

them, exactly.

Carlos: No, but...I heard what they

were saying...

Olivia: And what were they

Tony: Oi! Johnny! Are you going

Johnny: Oh sorry, Tony—yeah, could I have a coffee please?

Tony: That all?

Olivia: Tony! Please. Carlos is going to tell us something really important.

Tony: What?

Olivia: Thats what were going to find out. Carlos, go on!

Carlos: The managers, they were saying, that they know these buildings—the café, and your shop—they know theyre historic buildings, and they know they cant knock them down.

Magda: Yes. Thats what I found out. I told Bindyu. She put it in the paper.

Carlos: Yes. Theyve read the newspaper, they said. They know theres nothing they can do.

Olivia: So?

Magda: So?

Harry: So?

Tony: So?

Carlos: So...theyre not going to knock them down! The campaign was a success! Youve won!
