A jealous husband hired a private detective to check on the movements of his wife. The husband wanted more than a written report; he wanted video of his wife's activities.
A week later, the detective returned with a video. They sat down together to watch it. Although the quality was less than professional, the man saw his wife meeting another man. He saw the two of them laughing in the park. He saw them enjoying themselves at an outdoor cafe. He saw them dancing in a dimly lit nightclub. He saw the man and his wife participate in a dozen activities with utter glee.
"I just can't believe this," the distraught husband said.
The detective said, "What's not to believe? It's right up there on the screen!"
The husband replied, "I can't believe that my wife could be so much fun!"
嫉妬深い夫が、妻の行動を調べ上げるために、私立探偵を雇った。夫は、報告書だけではなく、妻の行動を撮影したビデオも欲しがった。
1週間後、探偵がビデオを携え戻ってきた。夫と探偵は並んで座り、ビデオを見はじめた。画質はプロ並みとは言えないものの、妻が他の男と会っているこ とは確認できた。公園で笑い合うふたり。屋外カフェで楽しんでいるふたり。ほの暗いナイトクラブで踊るふたり。その男と妻は、楽しくてたまらないといった様子で、いろいろなところに出かけていた。
「これはまったく信じられない」 動揺した夫が言った。
探偵が言った。 「何が信じられないんですか?見たとおりですよ!」
夫は答えた。 「妻と過ごすのをこんなにも楽しめることが信じられないんだ!」
