W: What? Ohwelland just what right does that give you to go around looking into peoples bags?
M: None whatsoever, unless I have reason to believe that theres something in the bags belonging to someone else.
W: What do you mean belonging to someone else?
M: Well, perhaps, things that havent been paid for.
W: Are you talking about stolen goods? Thats a nice way to talk, I must say. I dont know what things are coming to when perfectly honest citizens get stopped in the street and have their bags examined. A nice state of affairs!
M: Exactly, but if the citizens are honest they wouldnt mind, would they? So may I look into your bag, madam? We dont want to make a fuss, do we?
W: Fuss? Whos making a fuss? Stopping people in the street and demanding to see what theyve got in their bags. Charming! Thats what I call it: charming! Now go away; Ive got a train to catch.
M: Im sorry. Im trying to do my job as politely as possible, but Im afraid youre making it rather difficult. However, I must insist on seeing what you have in your bag.
W: And what, precisely, do you expect to find it there? The Crown Jewels?
M: No need to be sarcastic, madam. I thought Id made myself plain. If theres nothing in there which doesnt belong to you, you can go straight off and catch your train and Ill apologize for the inconvenience.
