Look, C, it's almost morning. I'm getting a bit hungry.
But you're an electric car. You don't eat.
Okay, what I meant was that I need to fill my batteries.
Fine, let's find an electric filling station along the way. However, I'm also getting hungry. We should look for a station with human food also.
Oh look! An electric filling station!
But this one doesn't have human food.
If we refill my batteries on this station, I'll play your favorite music!
Sorry, A, but thinking about food made me really hungry. I'm afraid we'll have to skip this station and find another one.
Okay, C, so be it. Would you like me to play your favorite music?
But you said you would play it if we stopped at that station.
Yeah, so what?
Well, we didn't make a stop there, so in order to keep your promise you shouldn't play my favorite music.
You're wrong, C. I didn't say anything about the case if we didn't stop there. That was an implication. "If X, then Y" means that if X is true, then Y must be true, and nothing more.
