【故事梗概】
在Robbie和Alexandra準(zhǔn)備出門的時候，他們發(fā)現(xiàn)了一只迷路的狗狗。Robbie按照狗狗脖子上的牌子上的電話號碼打過去，發(fā)現(xiàn)那個電話已經(jīng)停機(jī)了。
【對話】
Robbie: I have to turn off the lights, or else my father will get really angry. He says I never turn them out when I leave. If they come home and they're on...
[He moves his index finger across his throat to show that his father will be angry. ]
Robbie: Do you hear something?
Alexandra: Yes. What was that?
Robbie: It sounded like a dog barking.
Alexandra: It sounded like a dog barking right here.
Robbie: Yeah.
[He opens the door. A dog is standing there. ]
Alexandra: A dog!
Robbie: A springer spaniel!Come on in! Make yourself at home.
Alexandra: Oh, you poor little thing. Come here.
Robbie: Come on.
Alexandra: Poor baby.
Robbie: Where did you come from?
Alexandra: [She looks at the dog's identification tag. ]Her name's Gemma, and she belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Levinson. There's a phone number - five five five... eight four four eight. Robbie, maybe you should call them and tell the Levinsons we have their cute little spaniel.
Robbie: I've always wanted a springer spaniel. She's so cute.
Operator: The number you are calling - 555-8448 - is no longer in service.
Robbie: The number's no longer in service.
Alexandra: Oh, you poor, poor baby. You've lost your family.
Robbie: We'll find them. Don't worry, Alexandra.
