MODEL 3 I've got jet lag.
Script
Susan: Wow! What happened? You look like something the cat dragged in.
John: You would too if you’d been through what I have. I've got jet lag.
Susan: Jet lag's not for real, is it? It's like a "broken heart"-a figure of speech
John: It’s for real. See my eyes? They’re all bloodshot. I can’t eat; I can’t sleep.
Susan: How long does this jet lag last after you’re home again and walking round?
John: I don’t know exactly. It can be a day for each hour’s difference in time.
Susan: Ouch! At that rate it’ll take you twelve days to recover from the flight.
John: Maybe a drink on the plane can ease your jet lag.
Susan: That's not a very good idea. Alcohol dries you out when it's combined with altitude and stale dry air in the cabin.
John: I wonder whether a long flight like that is worth the high cost.
Susan: Take my advice. Go by boat. Arrive rested and ready to enjoy your holiday.
John: No, it'll take too long-longer than the time for me to reset 1 my biological clock after a flight.
