Jack sits down at Jane's lunch table during a seminar break
Jack: Is this seat taken? Mind if I sit down?
Jane: No. Feel free. I hope you don't mind me reading the newspaper while I wait for my food?
Jack: No worries. Anything to unwind after such a long seminar....
Jane: Hey, do you know anything about this hunger strike mentioned in the paper?
Jack: Oh. Some students have been staging a hunger-strike at Memorial Hall.
