Ending a Party
Gunther: I think this party has run its course and I’m ready to call it a night.
Maria: But there are still a few stragglers who seem reluctant to leave. How do we politely tell them to go home?
Gunther: I’ll just make an announcement.
Maria: Wait! That seems kind of rude. Let me try a few hints. I’ll tell them that we’re out of drinks.
Gunther: If you do that, one of those guys is liable to offer to make a beer run. That’s not going to do the trick.
Maria: What if I go over there, yawn, and comment on the lateness of the hour? That should be obvious enough without being too rude.
Gunther: Those people aren’t going to respond to subtlety 1. Let me handle this.
Maria: What are you going to do?
Gunther: I’m going to do what bars do at closing time. I’m turning up the lights and turning off the music.
Maria: And if that doesn’t work?
Gunther: I’m going to yell “lights out, people!” and mean it!
