Episode 38: A chat with the professor
Prof. Lewis: Come in Helen, sit down. Now how are you?
Helen: Fine really. Honestly, I'm fine.
Prof. Lewis:Are you? That's not what your marks are saying to me. They tell a very different story. You failed this mid-term test quite badly. Even John, who seems to do no work at all in class, managed to do so much better than you.
Helen: Humph!
Prof. Lewis:Is there something you want to talk about?
Helen: No, it's nothing.
Prof. Lewis:You and John just don't seem as close as you used to be. Is there something wrong?
Helen: No, it's just that?Oh I don't know.
Prof. Lewis:Helen, I'm here to help. Now why don't you just tell me what's on your mind.
