A dialogue overheard at a sushi bar, the boy is portuguese the girl a foreigner:
Boy: Have you heard of a tv program called "Amesterdam nights"?
Girl: No.
Boy: It's a program about Amesterdam and all the crazy things that happen there, drugs and...you know..."funny" sex...
Girl: Have you been often to Amesterdam?
Boy: One.
Girl (Pinter's Pause)
Boy: But I didn't smoke a pot or anything...just bought a magic mushroom, you know?
Girl (Another Pinter's Pause)
Boy: I used it here in Lisbon, not there...and they have women on shops, have you heard?
Girl (another silence or just a nod?)
Boy (with a higher pinch of fascination): They are on windows shops looking great and if a client enters they close the curtain. They are busy.
Girl (How many silences can a man take?)
Boy: You know kids after school they all smoke pot, not on the streets because it's not legal. It's not legal but they tolerate it, it's like you can buy and sell it, it's legal..they have very liberal laws...
...
(The rest I lost it in space because, unfortunately, my sushi lunches are very short)
