   My alarm clock didn't go off this morning.

Hear the storyline. Rosie overslept because her alarm clock didn't go off this morning.... .
Rosie: Sorry, I overslept.  My clock didn't go off this morning.
Francie: Again?
Rosie: That's right, even though I did set the alarm last night.
Francie: Your clock never works.  Perhaps you should buy a new one.
Rosie: Well, if it breaks down again tomorrow, I'll definitely buy a new one.
Francie: Maybe by then it'll be too late.
Rosie: What do you mean "too late"?
Francie: By that time you'll be fired.
