G: Gordon C: Cynthia
Gordon and Cynthia are in a café, and Gordon is complaining about his recent misfortunes.
G: I don’t know what’s been going on lately, Cynthia.
C: What do you mean?
G: Well, my car broke down yesterday, I spilled coffee all over my textbooks, and now I’ve lost my wallet!
C: It seems like bad luck is following you everywhere.
G: No kidding! What do you think I should do?
C: You clearly need a serious change in your fortune. Have you thought about visiting a temple?
G: A temple? What’s that got to do with my luck?
