Sammy: Hello Mama! You wouldn't believe it! We're going to make money on our apples! Producing cider!
Mama: But Sammy! Be sensible! You and Mike are teachers and not businesspeople. What sort of nonsense is it this time?
Sammy: A long story. Anyway a gay couple, good acquaintances of ours, from Dillon, are just starting a business together with a wine producer - to producer cider. It's a nice drink, tasty, healthy , cheap, and nobody has had such a glorious idea about it in our region so far.
Mama: Maybe if nobody has so far, it's not worth it?
Sammy: But everybody likes cider! The point is they'll buy our apples if we join their business. Well I don't know particulars. Yet.
Mama: Does Michael do?
Sammy: Well, he'll be meeting Oli and Natt, the gay couple, and their wine producer to discuss it all. Keep your fingers crossed please!
Mama: You and your madcap ideas!
Sammy: You aren't very supportive, mama, are you?
Mama: Oh I am! It's just that I'd be very careful in your place. Investing in a business when you can hardly spell the word... I don't know...
Sammy: But we are only investing our apples!! If the business is a flop, we'll have lost only our fruit. The money we'll put in bottles and advertising will be negligible.
Mama: Let's see. Anyway you know that about counting chicken.
Sammy: What chicken?!
Mama: Don't count your chickens before they are hatched. An adage. Old wisdom.
Sammy: :(
Teachers Sammy and Mike have decided to start producing cider. Their friends Oli and Natt, a gay couple from Dillon, are starting a business with a wine producer. They will buy Sammy and Mike's apples. Michael will have a meeting with Oli and Natt to discuss details. Mama is sceptical about it.
