Learning to tell time

The French lessons continue, and today's lesson was hysterical. It's just so obvious who these tape sets are created for. Today we were learning how to ask for and tell the time. The conversation we learned went like this:

Him: Hello Mademoiselle.
Her: Madame, Monsieur. NOT Mademoiselle. (Ouch! This isn't looking good.)
Him: Sorry Madame. What time is it?
Her: It is 1:00.
Him: Thank you. Would you like to have a drink with me?
Her: No thank you, Monsieur.
Him: Not now? Would you like to have a drink with me at 2:00?
Her: No Monsieur, I do not want to have a drink with you at 2:00.
Him: Ah, a little later? Would you like to have some beer or some wine at 8:00 or 9:00?
Her: Absolutely not Monsieur! Not now, and not later!
Him: Oh, I understand. You don't want to have a drink with me. (Here I picture her rolling her eyes inwardly and sighing in relief. But...)
Him: You would like to eat with me! Where would you like to eat lunch?
Her: Monsieur, I do not want to eat or have a drink with you!
Him: You don't want to eat or have a drink with me today?
Her: No Monsieur, I do not.
Him: But you want to have a drink with me tomorrow!
Her: No Monsier, you do not understand.
Him: What do I not understand?
Her: You do not understand French.

OMG, could you imagine watching this conversation happen? I'm not sure whether to feel more sorry for him because he's so dense, or for her for having to endure this conversation. It just sounds so painful. But we couldn't stop grinning as we were listening to it. However, at least we now know how to say "Absolutely not!!!!" That's a fun one to use frequently in daily conversation. Especially in public. Dave might say something like "would you like to have a french fry?" and I exclaim in French "absolutely not!" Everyone around us looks and wonders what just happened at THAT table. And we just grin at each other knowingly.
