Storch: Hallo. Hello.
     
Frosch: Hallo. Hello.
     
Storch: Ich suche Breitmaulfrösche. I am looking for wide-mouthed frogs.
  Kannst du mir sagen, wo ich welche finde? Can you tell me where I can find some?
     
Frosch: Warum suchst du denn ausgerechnet Breitmaulfrösche? Why are you looking for wide-mouthed frogs of all frogs?
     
Storch: Ich bin ein Storch und fresse Breitmaulfrösche. I am a stork and eat wide-mouthed frogs.
     
Frosch: Och, die gibt's hier aber nicht. Oh, but there aren't any here.
  Hab' ich hier noch nie gesehen... eh... Have never seen any here... eh...
     
  Da brat mir doch einer 'nen Storch*... hähä... oh... Someone fry me a stork... hehe... oh...
     
* This German idiom is actually a cry of astonishment  
  whenever we experience something which is incredibly  
  new for us. However, in this context the wide-mouthed  
  frog means it literally.
