レイ、キム、タカが休憩中にルートビアーの話をしています。レイとキムはとても楽しんでいます。前回ではタカの口には合わなかったにもかかわらず、良い雰囲気をこわすのではないかと怖くてきちんと自分の意見を言えないでいました。今回は自分の好き嫌いを相手の気分を害することなく言う事で、後々の誤解も避けられたようです。それに自分の好き嫌いをお互い正直にexchange(交換)することで返って更に仲良くなれました。

台本
Ray: Oh man, this is very tasty! You want to try this, Kim?
Kim: ...Oh yeah! This is really nice. Where did you buy this?
Ray: At the new shopping center...you know, near the airport. Have you been there, Taka?
Taka: No, I haven’t. Anyways, what’s that?
R: You don’t have root beer in Japan, Taka? You should give it a shot! It’s so great.
T: Ok...thanks.
R: What do you think, Taka? You like it?
T: Yeah...it’s...interesting.
K: Oh, you don’t like root beer?
T: Well, it’s okay, but I am not a huge fan of it, to be honest but thanks.
R: Sure. Well, that means more root beer for me! Haha!
T&K: Haha!

Later on the same week…
K: Hey guys, I went to the mall and bought root beer. Would you like some?
R: Oh, awesome! Thanks, Kim!
T: I'll pass. I actually brought something today. These are called ampan in Japanese.
K: Are these pastries? (eating) Hmm… oh...what’s on the inside?
T: Sweet bean paste. How about you, Ray?
R: Ah...well, no thanks.
T: OK, what do you think, Kim? Would you like another?
K: This is...interesting...No thanks, but thanks for asking.
T: Sure! That means more for me!
K&R: Haha!
