Mrs. White: While I was watching the movie I was
drinking my coffee.
The Inspector: Coffee? But your husband was preparing
tea.
Mrs. White: Tea? No We didnt drink tea last night.
The Inspector: OK. What was he doing in the kitchen?
Mrs. White: He was thirsty. He wanted to drink water.
The Inspector: Hmm. What happened then?

to help him.
