C.O.: Will you please put your luggage into the X-ray machine?

P.: And what about my camera?

C.O.: Don't worry. It won't ruin the film.

P.: Am I through?

C.O.: Just another second. Will you please open this baggage? Do you have any video-cassettes?

P.: I have some.

C.O.: Are they blank?

P.: Well, no. There are films on them.

C.O.: Could you tell me what kind of film?

P.: They are sort of advertisements.

С.O.: Are you going to take them back?

P.: Well, I'm not sure.

C.O.: They should be declared. Is this also your suitcase? Could you unlock it, please?

P.: Well, yes, but I'm afraid I've lost my key.

C.O.: Since you say you've lost the key we'll have to open the suitcase without it.

P.: I don't see the reason for doing it. I'm afraid I'll have to apply the Chief of the Customs House.

C.O.: Calm down, please. It's your right, but such are our rules. And now what's this?

P.: This is my wedding ring.

C.O.: I'm afraid you've failed to declare it, what's the hallmark of this gold?

P.: In fact I don't remember.

C.O.: Can I have this ring for a minute?... I'm writing in the declaration that there is no hallmark on the ring. Here is your declaration form. You may go. We are sorry for the trouble caused.

P.: It's my fault.

C.O.: Do you know that you should keep the form until you leave? Don't lose the form, otherwise you may have trouble when you leave the country.
