You’re hungry, thirsty, and most of all, tired of waiting for someone to rescue you. You are about to give up hope when the guard comes to the door of the holding room and tells you in Spanish, “Because you are in so much trouble, you need to hire a lawyer so that you can defend yourself.” Great. And you thought things couldn’t get any worse! You respond in Spanish, “I’m not from here, so I don’t have anyone to call. Can’t you get a public defender to come here and help me?” The guard replies in Spanish, “I don’t know what you are talking about. You have three minutes to make a call, and I suggest you spend them wisely and find a lawyer.” Who in the world can you call?

Learn Spanish with SpanishPod101.com! Your friend’s joke is no longer funny. These customs guards are barking at you in Spanish, and they seem serious. If this is a joke, he’s taken it a bit too far. You tell the customs agent in Spanish, “You were told by my friend to pull a prank on me, right?” The agent responds in Spanish, “Sir, I have no idea what you are talking about. We found a bag carried by you and it is being searched by the customs police.” Panicking, you respond in Spanish, “What? I’m no criminal! What has been found?” The agent tells you in Spanish, “At this point, I am not at liberty to say what has been searched for or what may have been found in your bags. But believe me, you are in trouble with the authorities.” All this happening because of a little Spanish misunderstanding? Are you kidding me? I guess not…

Learn Spanish with SpanishPod101.com! You’re in the customs line at the airport, and your friend snickers and tells you in Spanish, “Go ahead, I’ll meet you on the other side.” You wonder why he’s laughing, but you walk ahead of him to the customs booth. The customs officer asks you the usual questions in Spanish, such as “Why did you visit this country?” and “What are you taking home from this country?” and you respond in Spanish. Though you don’t think you look suspicious and you aren’t carrying anything aside from a t-shirt out of the country, the agent keeps asking you more and more questions in Spanish. Puzzled as to why you’re getting the third degree, you look over at your friend, who is still laughing. You start to put two and two together as the agent continues to interrogate you in Spanish. Maybe your friend knows the customs agent and is playing a joke on you? That is something he might do…so you decide to play along!
