Amy's Portuguese boyfriend’s father’s house. Exact year uncertain.
Fred and Amy visited Amy’s Portuguese boyfriend’s father at his home. The old man took them to the rabbit hutch.
Fred couldn’t speak Portuguese. But he understood perfectly well what the old man was saying: Which one do you want to eat? This one looks tasty.
The man was being a generous host — showing the guests the source of a good meal, inviting them to participate in the selection. In Fred and Amy’s context it was a rabbit hutch with living rabbits clearly being evaluated as dinner candidates.
Fred understood the question being asked. He did not have a definitive answer. The language barrier meant he didn’t have to provide one.
Amy, who had some Portuguese from time spent there and in Brazil, presumably had to be more responsive. Her Portuguese came in useful at moments like this.
