Jan: This is the life! Spending the day at a spa is my idea of paradise.



Tim: Yeah, it’s great.



Jan: Aren’t you enjoying yourself?



Tim: The massage 1 was okay, but why do I have to get a facial and a body wrap? I’m a guy!



Jan: Men need rejuvenating 2, too. These are all holistic 3 treatments and you’ll feel like a new man when you’re done. Just enjoy the pampering 4.



Tim: I feel like an idiot. How am I supposed to relax?



Jan: Why don’t you get a body scrub or a scalp massage instead? Maybe that’ll calm your nerves.



Tim: I don’t need a body scrub or another massage. I just want to get out of here. When will we be done?



Jan: After this, all we have left are manicures and pedicures.



Tim: What?! I’m not getting a manicure or a pedicure.



Jan: You did promise to go with me to the spa if I agreed to have your four college friends stay in our house for two weeks, remember?



Tim: Yes, I remember. All right, let’s get this over with.



Jan: Just be glad I didn’t sign you up for waxing!
