(During lunch, Rick tells George about his disastrous weekend.)
G: Hi, Rick. How was your weekend?
R: My weekend? It was terrible!
G: Really? What happened?
R: Do you really want to know?
G: Of course.
R: Well, on Saturday, my mom and dad went away for the day.
G: Yeah?
------------------------------------------------------------
R's mother: There's a pizza in the refrigerator.
R: Uh-huh.
R's father: And here's the number at Aunt Helen's.
R: Thanks, Dad.
R' mother: Cook the pizza for fifteen minutes.
R's father: See you at eleven tonight.
R's mother: And don't burn it.
R: OK. All right. See you tonight. Bye.

G: So, what happened?
R: Well. They left at one o'clock, and I was hungry.
G: Uh-huh.
R: So I put a pizza in the oven.

G: Yeah?

G: Oh no!
R: Oh, yes. I got back, and guess what! I drove the car into the garage door ...
G: Oh! Was your father angry?
R: Well, my parents came home late that night, but the next day ...
G: And what about your mother?
R: She thanked me.
G: She thanked you?
R: Yeah! She said, “The kitchen ... it's so clean!”
G: Well, anyway, that's good. So what did you do on Sunday?
R: I found a part-time job ... at the pizza shop.
G: The pizza shop? You?
R: Yeah! Garage doors are expensive, George. And I need the money.
G: Well, cheer up, Rick. I'll buy you an ice cream.
R: Gee, thanks, George ... So, George, how was your weekend?
G: Oh, my weekend was fantastic! First, ...
