Idiom Scenario 2
Two friends are talking ...
Friend 1: Excellent party. You sure know how to throw a party.
Friend 2: Thanks, but I am worried that the food will run short.
Friend 1: I am sure that the turnout is far higher than you anticipated. There seems to be a lot of people here. I am sure you did not calculate the food requirements for so many people. I can order some pizza if you like.
Friend 2: That would be great thanks. The thought of someone not being able to get something to eat at a party I am hosting is appalling.
