Script in English

SFX: Phone ringing.

Morris: Hello.

Kathy: Hi Morris. It’s Kathy calling from Irving’s Cruisin’ to Win. How are you?

Morris: Good.

Kathy: Good. Morris, we heard that last year you won something. Could you tell us what it was?

Morris: A hot dog.

Kathy: Well, congratulations Morris.

Morris: Yeah.

Kathy: And, and, so how was it?

Morris: Good. Good.

Kathy: Did you play a lot?

Morris: Yep.

Kathy: You still play?

Morris: Wha?

Kathy: You still play?

Morris: Yep.

Kathy: You know this year you could win gum.

Morris: Win what?

Kathy: Gum.

Morris: Yeah.

Kathy: Well there you have it. Cruisin’ to Win is back with three ways to win. Instant win, enter to win, and collect to win. Great prizes like a Ford Expedition with a Harley V-Rod, one of five Ford Focus cars, Buell Blast motorcycles, and even coffee and water. So Morris, what did your family think when you won the hot dog?

Morris: Oh, my wife thought it was pretty good.

Kathy: How about your friends?

Morris: Good…

Kathy: How about…

Morris: Good.

Kathy: Good. Cruise in to Irving and Cruisin’ to Win. No purchase necessary. See in store for details.
