MRS RAMIREZ: I told you, Carlos! It's impossible to understand that map! Why don't we go by cab?

MR RAMIREZ: But I want to go by subway, Conchita! Look, we’re here in Washdon, so we should go on the subway once! Come on, my dear!

MRS RAMIREZ: Very well. But it looks so dirty!

MR RAMIREZ: I'll ask this lady. Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to GLOOKESTER PLACE?

PASSER-BY: Sorry honey, I've never heard of it.

MR RAMIREZ: Excuse me, I'm trying to get to GLOOKESTER PLACE.

PASSER-BY: No, I don't think I know that name. Sorry, I can't help you.

MR RAMIREZ: Excuse me, which train do I get to go to GLOOKESTER PLACE?

GERMAN STUDENT: Hmm. How do you spell that, please?

MR RAMIREZ: G-L-O-U-C-E-S-T-E-R.

GERMAN: Ah-ha! You pronounced it wrongly. It's Gloucester; that's how you say it: Gloucester.

MR RAMIREZ: Yes, alright! Look, I don't care how you pronounce it; I just want to get there!

GERMAN: Take the train from Track 2, and change at Worcester Place. Now that's another very interesting word: “Worcester”. It's spelt W-O-R-C-E-S-T-E-R and pronounced “Worcester”. I'll say it again, if you like -

MR RAMIREZ: Thank you, that’s enough, goodbye!
