"I'm sorry I've to tell you about .my evening"
"Please go ahead"
"My friend met this woman and I met her today and she was so nice. It was such a nice evening today" "That's nice, the good weather must've helped to"
"Ah the weather was so good today. It added to the meeting too"
"I feel the summer is where one accumulates all the good memories and get warmth through them in the bleak winter"
"That's an interesting way to see it"

"What were you doing when the Wall came down?"
"I was going to my usual club in Charlottenburg, I remember very well it was a Thursday evening. Before leaving, I saw that the Taggeschau showed at 2330 show that the wall was down, but didn't believe it"
"Why not?" "You have to remember it was very hard to imagine life without Wall. I used to think that people on the other side used to talk in a hard Saxonian accent. Imagine my surprise when I found people on the fringes of Berlin spoke a harder Berlin accent than in West Berlin"

Be the long lost college friend from the groom's side, or even better the brother of the said friend. Trick is to smile in a general direction but not at anyone and sneak your way into a photo or two. Go to the food stalls straight but don't eat yet..

How to write a detective show:

1. Hero: Main detective, a bit of an oddball, emotional wreck, has chronic problems with their partner or love, bonus with a neglected child. Has a substance abuse problem and doesn't defer to authority. Everyone is against the hero. 2. Sidekick: Doubts the hero and but has irrational urge to be with them until they have a point of revelation where they start worshipping them. Personal life also suffers, Bonus: always shot or maimed towards the end.
