Cesar: I can’t catch a break. Everything seems to be going wrong these days.
Olga: Maybe your streak of bad luck is because you did something unlucky.
Cesar: What do you mean?
Olga: Have you walked under a ladder or crossed paths with a black cat lately?
Cesar: I don’t think so, but I’m not superstitious. I don’t believe breaking a mirror will bring me seven years of bad luck.
Olga: Say what you will, but it doesn’t hurt to take some precautions, especially the way things have been going for you.
Cesar: I don’t know...
Olga: Here, you can borrow my rabbit’s foot and my four-leaf clover. I’ll go home to get you a horseshoe so you can hang it upside down over your front door.
Cesar: I really doubt any of that is going to do me any good.
Olga: You know what tomorrow is, don’t you?
Cesar: The thirteenth?
Olga: Friday the thirteenth. Do you really want to take your chances?
Cesar: I guess not. Do you really think these good luck charms will help?
Olga: We’ll know on the fourteenth, won’t we?
