You can't go that way.

"Come along, Arthur," says Ford impatiently, and enters the Pub.

Pub
The Pub is pleasant and cheerful and full of pleasant and cheerful people who don't know they've got about twelve minutes to live and are therefore having a spot of lunch. Some music is playing on an old jukebox. The exit is east.
Ford Prefect is here.
There is a barman serving at the bar.
Behind the bar is a shelf. It is full of the sort of items you find on shelves behind bars in pubs.

Ford buys lots of beer and offers half to you. "Muscle relaxant..." he says, impenetrably.

>take beer
Just drink it!

"Drink the beer," urges Ford. "It will help cushion your system against the coming shock of the matter transference beam."

>drink beer
It's very good beer, brewed by a small local company. You particularly like its flavour, which is why you woke up feeling so wretched this morning. You were at somebody's birthday party here in the Pub last night.

You begin to relax and enjoy yourself, so when Ford mentions that he's from a small planet in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, not from Guildford as he usually claims, you take it in your stride, and say "Oh yes, which part?"

Pub Score: 20 Turns: 30

>drink beer
It is really very pleasant stuff, with a very good dry, nutty flavour, some light froth on top, and a deep colour. It is at exactly room temperature. You reflect that the world cannot be all bad when there are such pleasures in it.

Ford mentions that the world is going to end in about twelve minutes.

There is a distant crash which Ford explains is nothing to worry about, probably just your house being knocked down.

Ok.

However much you clear your throat, wave your forefinger, or wiggle your eyebrows, the barman pays no attention, but carries on wiping another part of the bar.

You are obviously letting things get to you. You should learn to relax a little.
