    This document provides an activity and answer key about using the third conditional past to discuss hypothetical situations in the movie "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." The activity asks students to rewrite sentences describing events that could have changed Daisy's afternoon using "if + past perfect" construction. It then provides the answers to check their work. The key explains that if any of the listed events involving Daisy's friend, a delivery truck, package wrapping, a breakup, an alarm, a taxi driver stop, or a forgotten coat had been different, then Daisy and her friend would not have crossed the path of the oncoming taxi.
