Experiencing Interruptions?

AplusB

Sarah and Felipe (from group A) attend a dinner without her suspecting that it will be transcendental, while Alejando and Beatriz (from group B), in a place not far away, an unexpected event is about to happen. Both A and B will discover that the order of the factors can alter the product, even though the result comes from a simple associative operation.
