Augie: Today’s the day. I’m giving you the heads up. Our company is rolling out its new line of cell phones.



Lillian: I can see you’re excited about it. What’s so special about the new products?



Augie: This line of phones has state-of- the-art technology and never- before-seen features. It’s been in development for over a year and it’s been really hard keeping it under wraps.



Lillian: I thought information was leaked weeks ago.



Augie: Those were just rumors 1, and the company put a clamp on those pretty quickly.



Lillian: Wasn’t the new line supposed to come out next month?



Augie: That was the original plan, but since McQ Corp. is coming out with its own line of phones soon, we wanted to get a jump on them.



Lillian: And steal their thunder.



Augie: Yes, and steal their thunder. We had to scramble 2 to get the phones ready ahead of schedule, but I think it was worth it. They’re really going to make a splash.



Lillian: I hope so. I hope all of this hype has been justified 3.



Augie: Oh, it will be. I’ll know soon enough.



Lillian: How?



Augie: You’ll be begging me to get you one.
