Full script

Lin
Hey, could I get kitted out with ski gear for today?
Them
Absolutely—are you just after skis and boots, or the whole setup?
Lin
Honestly, the whole setup—I'd rather not wipe out before noon.
Them
Fair enough. What size are your boots, and do you need a helmet?
Lin
I'm a thirty-eight, and yeah, a helmet feels pretty smart.
Them
Good call. We can fit you properly—the mountain hates overconfident beginners.
Lin
Perfect. I'm aiming for graceful survival, not an accidental cartwheel.
Them
Then you're in luck—I can sort the gear; the graceful part's still up to you.
