[graziolliveira]

Oi pessoal!!!!

Tive como dica do site English Experts, acompanhar os episódios de The Flatmates. Porém como sou iniciante, estou tendo dificuldades para entender a história.... alguem poderia me ajudar?

Episode 167: The phone bill
Tim: Here's the mail.
Helen: Another bill I bet you. Everyone ready to stump up their quarter share of the phone bill?
Alice: What's the damage?
Helen: A hundred and sixty-three pounds, eighty-seven pence!
Tim: That can't be right.
Alice: That's about hundred pounds more than our usual bill.
Khalid: Yeah, but with the crunchy credit and everything, our bills were bound to start getting higher.
Alice: Yes but not this high.
Helen: There are a lot of international calls here.
Alice: Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Bahrain, Saudi. Khalid, are these calls all yours?
Khalid: I was feeling homesick on my birthday.
Tim: That's fine mate. Now we know who has to foot the bill.
Khalid: But I thought you said we always shared the bills evenly in this flat...?
