Gwen: Do you see that heavyset guy over there, the one towering over everyone else?
Denzel: Yeah, what about him?
Gwen: He's my ex-boyfriend. I haven't seen him in years. When I knew him he was really skinny. He's really put on a few pounds. It's amazing what a few years can do.
Denzel: None of us are as svelte as we used to be.
Gwen: That's true enough. I'm not as petite as I used to be, that's for sure.
Denzel: How come you've never mentioned this ex-boyfriend before?
Gwen: Oh, I'd almost forgotten about him. Oh, no. I hope that guy over there didn't see me.
Denzel: Who? That short, stocky guy?
Gwen: No, the average height guy who's walking this way. He's another one of my exes. I'd hoped never to see him again.
Denzel: It was a bad breakup?
Gwen: Right. Let's head toward the door.
Denzel: Why hadn't you mentioned him before?
Gwen: I thought I had. There have been so many...
Denzel: Don't look now, but your ex is also headed toward the door.
Gwen: Which one?
Denzel: The tall medium build guy walking next to you!
