Excerpt

MARTIN: Okay, is it still there? The form. The contract. Is it still there?

CHRISTINE: Well yes. Yes it is, as a matter of fact.

MARTIN: Okay, let me ask another question. Has it just sat there since I left? No one has entered the information onto a computer system or anything?

CHRISTINE: No, the data entry team works in the evening.

MARTIN: Right. So, my 'contract' is, at present, not quite 'live', at least not until data entry get here.

CHRISTINE: Ah! I see where you're going with this.

MARTIN: Good.

CHRISTINE: But unfortunately as soon as both parties sign the paperwork then a legal agreement has been entered into and to alter or to so say the terms...

MARTIN: Listen. Would it be possible to fill out another form, sorry contract?

CHRISTINE: You want to sign up again?

MARTIN: Yes. I want to sign up again.

CHRISTINE: But your first contract hasn't elapsed. It doesn't make sense.

MARTIN: No, I would like to fill out a new one with the dates I should have written on it. And then you can just replace the earlier one with this 'new' one, yes?

CHRISTINE: Just, what? Tear it up?

MARTIN: Good idea, yes please.

CHRISTINE: Do you know the penalty for that kind of thing?

MARTIN: It's a piece of paper!!

CHRISTINE: It's a legally binding contract, the terms of which cannot be altered...

MARTIN: This is ridiculous. I'm a customer! Doesn't that mean anything round here?

CHRISTINE: Yes you are. And a highly valued one. All our customers are...

MARTIN: Don't tell me. I'm at the heart of your business right?
