5.   Watch the clip and check whether it was something you mentioned

6.   If people believed you when you said that, what details would you tell them? What would you tell them about what they should and shouldn’t do in order to get there? Brainstorm a list of ten things you would say

7.   Watch the clip and check if anything is the same as you said

8.   How do you think the film ends?
