Rob
Ah, I love the outdoors! And this is the perfect spot for us to start our camping adventure, Li.

Li
Oh… yes… nature, Rob. You said this camping trip was an invitation I couldn't refuse. Well, I really couldn't as you were so insistent...

Rob
Well, we can put the tent over there, next to that bush…

Li
It would be a good place if it wasn't so close to an ant nest…

Rob
…and we can light a fire near that rock…

Li
…the wind might put out the fire…

Rob
It's just a breeze.

Li
But it's bringing in the clouds. It's going to rain...

Li, nothing seems to please you, does it? Are you trying to tell me something?

Li
Well, the thing is...

Rob
Yes? What's the problem Li?

Li
It's just that the tent is a bit small and… well… you know what I mean…

Rob
Li, I don't know what you mean! Now just come on, just tell me what's wrong - don't beat around the bush!

Li
Beat around the bush? I'm not even touching the bush.

Rob
I know. In English, when you tell someone not to 'beat around the bush' you're telling them to stop avoiding saying things directly.

Why didn't you say that before?

Li
You were so enthusiastic, I couldn't say 'no' to your invitation.

Rob
I'm sorry, Li.

Li
And I'm sorry for beating around the bush. I should have just told you.

(Sound coming from the bush)

Li
And by the look of things we are both going to be sorry if we don't run to the car and get the hell out of here!

(A roar)

Oh there is a bear just behind the bush!
