Shawna: Sure, Monty. Was there a problem?
Monty: Yes, there Certainly was a problem. Instead of the picture of our model, there was a picture of a dog!
Shawna: That’s Awful! I wasn’t aware of the Substitution. On behalf of the newspaper, I Sincerely apologize for the error.
Monty: I don’t think you understand the Magnitude of the problem. Our Slogan is: “Look in the mirror and this could be you!” Now do you Get it? Our store is a Laughingstock!
Shawna: I can’t tell you how sorry we are for this Egregious mistake. We will certainly run a correction in tomorrow’s paper, and we will run a corrected version of your ad. That’s The least we can do. Is there anything else we can do To make amends for our mistake?
Monty: Yes, there is. I’d like the person responsible To be called on the mat for this.
Shawna: Rest assured. We take this matter very seriously. We’ll find out who is responsible and Heads will roll.
Monty: Good. That’s what I wanted to hear.
