A girl, maybe sixteen or so, is pushed into the room by someone standing outside the door. She is visibly nervous, but maintains a certain level of decorum given the circumstances.
The man in the suit turns to meet her gaze. "Ah, so glad you could join us," he says to her. "This fine gentleman here, is your new courier. You, sir, will take her home."
The girl looks at the man, not comprehending his words.
"Oh, that's right," he thought out loud. "Nin hao, ni hao ma?"
"...hao." The girl replied.
"Hao!" The man jumps and claps his hands in joy, "Hao!" He coughs quickly and turns back towards you "zhe shi wo de... pengyou. Wo de pengyou... give me a second..." Can he not remember your name? "It'll come to me... oh whatever, Jeff. Zhe shi Jeff. Jeff he ni... go to... ni de jiao."
The girl looked at him, perplexed.
"No, not jiao," the man continued, "Jia! Ni de jia! Uh, Zhang Xiu Ying, nin zhe shenme?"
The girl stood silent for a minute, not trusting this man, before finally answering, "Sichuan."
"Ah yes, Sichuan. Sichuan, Sichuan, Sichuan! Four Rivers!" The man was ecstatic, ready to dance around the room. "Your job, Jeff- is it Jeff? I don't care-is to transport the lovely Ms. Zhang here back to her home, is Sichuan. Do you know where that is?"
