Hello. I'm the hotel manager and this gentleman is my partner.
We'd like to welcome you.
You're one of the lucky ones.
You have one of our superior rooms, which means you have a view.
- Did you read the leaflet? - Yes, I did.
Very good. Now the fact that you'll turn into an animal
if you fail to fall in love with someone during your stay here
is not something that should upset you, or get you down.
Just think as an animal you'll have a second chance to find a companion.
But even then, you must be careful.
You need to choose a companion that is a similar type of animal to you.
A wolf and a penguin could never live together,
nor could a camel and a hippopotamus.
That would be absurd.
Think about it.
I understand this discussion is a little unpleasant for you.
But it is my duty to prepare you psychologically,
for all possible outcomes.
Now, have you thought of what animal you'd like to be if you end up alone?
- Yes, a lobster. - Why a lobster?
Because lobsters live for over 100 years,
are blue-blooded like aristocrats
and stay fertile all their lives.
I also like the sea very much.
I water-ski and swim quite well, since I was a teenager.
I must congratulate you. The first thing most people think of is a dog,
which is why the world is full of dogs.
Very few people choose an unusual animal, which is why they are endangered.
A lobster is an excellent choice.
