Was she naked? Should she have been naked? Was he just humoring her? Was he her instructor and while her performance might be good enough for the masses, it'll never be perfect in his eyes? He = Male? Adult? Human? She = Female? Adult? Human? Performer? Entertainer? Athelete? Musician? Singer? Scientist? Secretary? | ||

Was she trying to recite the--what is it called, anyhow?--alphabet used by the military or on radios when spellificating stuff to avoid confusion amongst the similar sounding letters (the alpha-bravo-camel thing)? And she said "Bee" instead of "Bravo"? | ||

Maybe she's in training to be an air traffic controller? Or in the military? Or a dispatcher of some kind? | ||

And she said "Bee" instead of "Bravo"? no Maybe she's in training to be an air traffic controller? YES Or in the military? Or a dispatcher of some kind? **** SPOILER **** She works as an air traffic controller. One day, her colleague realizes that she has mistaken an aircraft designation with the letters BB as PP, potentially disrupting a flight path. He corrects her using the communications alphabet letter Bravo, which is much harder to mis-hear than B; but he is very unhappy with her job performance. | ||

...and they say "niner" instead of "nine" so it won't be confused as another number ("three," I think it is) onnaccounta they sound real similar-like. Sorry for the early spoilage. | ||
