Episode 57: Dr Laver takes the plunge
Dr. Laver: I had a lovely time at the barbecue, although I drank too much wine. I had a terrible hangover.
Alice: Did you? I just wish I hadn't had that salmon, especially as I'd already had enough food. I was just being greedy.
Dr. Laver: Oh well, not to worry, you'll be alright soon. In fact, I was wondering, erm...
Alice: Yes, yes?
Dr. Laver: Well, when you're well enough, would you like to go out one evening?
Alice: Are you asking me out on a date, Dr. Laver?
Dr. Laver: Well yes, I... I guess I am, and please, call me Paul.
Alice: Well, Paul, I'd love to go on a date.
Dr. Laver: Great. Would Friday be too soon?
