I was so frustrated and filled with rage at that other driver!

What happened?

He cut me off and gave me an obscene gesture with his middle finger.

That’s aweful! Some people are cruel and unkind.

Yes, so I sped up and cut him off to teach him a lesson.

That could have been dangerous Austin.


Context: Addison sets up supplies for the bake sale. They make one table with breads and one with cakes and sweets.

The doors open in five minutes. I have everything set up around me. Breads on one table and sweets and cakes on another.

You have plenty but I know you will sell out.

You are so kind. There will be lots of other vendors here selling cakes and breads.

Yeah but they aren't your cakes and breads, Addison.

Well I just want to sell out and make a bit of profit.

You will. You always do. You are becoming famous around here for your breads and cakes.


I am so excited for this years bake sale!

So am I, have you set up already?

I have the tables ready for the cakes and sweets.

Sounds great! You have it all worked out by the sound of it.

Thanks, I will separate the breads from the cakes and the sweets so people don't get confused.


I can't wait for this amazing bake sale.

What are we going to put out for it?

Well, one table with the breads and another with sweets and cakes.

That sounds amazing. I know exactly which spot I will go to.

You might have to fight me for that one.

Oh yeah? I think that I will win that one.


Context: In their article, Mississippi gave the reader a thorough analysis of Riley's perspective.

Did you like my article where I went over Riley's perspective in the movie?

Yeah I thought it was a great read actually.

I put a lot of effort into it because I want to be picked up by a major publication for my writing.

I think you are already good enough, you just have to keep writing.

Thanks, and I already have several other articles lined up for this week.

That is a lot, I hope they do well when you post them.


I think that you may not be seeing the underlying theme here.

I feel like as I read the passage the woman was in a state of happiness.

Sure she was happy but also confused.

I suppose when she made her choice that meant she may regret it later.

That is right, because of Riley's perspective she will never know what would have happened. I gave a thorough analysis of this.

That may always leave a feeling of what if.


Context: Lee was trying to win a race. Lee watched to make sure they did not run into anyone.

I ended up winning the race!

I know, you were amazing on the track!

I thought I was going to run into that one guy, I had to make sure I didn’t.

You came pretty close, I saw you move over a little


I really wanted to win the race last weekend, but I was extra careful not to run into anybody.

Didn't you have a problem with that in a recent race, where you ran into someone and you both fell?

Yup, that's why I was so careful this time.  I keep a good distance and when I wanted to pass I swung wide.

So, how did it go?

I came in second.  But at least I didn't run into anyone.

Well, congratulations on second place.  That's still an accomplishment.


I was trying to win the race, but I'm so clumsy that I have to ensure I don’t run into anyone first!

That must give you a disadvantage surely?

Yeah, but at least I'm preventing a concussion.

Better safe than sorry and all that.

Exactly.

So did you win in the end?


I was almost at the finish line.  I could see it so close to me

Yeah you were really close.

There were so many people at that marathon I had to make sure I wasn’t running into anyone first.

Of course I totally understand your concern.

Sucks that I didn't finish because of that but at least I tried.

Better luck next time.


Context: Since the hill they were riding down was incredibly steep and long, Kendall lost control of their bike.

Does it look like I will need stitches?

It is going to be a close call, we will have to wait for the bleeding to slow down so  I can see the cut.

Have you ever rode down a hill that was so steep before?

No, I have never even seen a hill that was that steep and long before. You've got to be careful Kendall.

Well, we will know from first hand experience to not do that hill again.

That is for sure, I am just sorry it took you losing control of your bike for us to know.


I was riding my bike down a really steep hill, and I lost control of my bike.

Oh, I'm so sorry. I hope you didn't get hurt to badly.

I have a bunch of scrapes and bruises, but thankfully nothing worse than that.

That's good. It could have been a lot worse.

Definitely. As I was losing control, I was really scared of what was going to happen.

That had to be really scary. I'm glad you're alright.


Context: To get lee to sleep that night, Jesse started telling lee a story.

Lee had too much energy last night.

What was he doing?

Running around and jumping.

Did he fall asleep eventually?

Yeah, but not from being tired, I told him a story.

At least you know how to put him to bed.


Lee didn't want to sleep last night, so I told him a story.

Let me guess, it was the one about the counting sheep!

How'd you figure that one out? Yeah, it is an oldie but a goodie. Puts them right to sleep.

Any story about numbered sheep jumping over a fence would put an insomniac into slumber, Jesse.

Yeah, that's true. I would do it in my own head to put me to sleep.

I've done it before, too. I usually get around to the 10th sheep and then I'm out.


I have the hardest time getting Lee to sleep.

That is a common problem.

The boy finds excuses to stay awake.

What seems to work?

I get Lee into a comfortable position in the bed and start to tell him the most boring story I can think of until he nods off.

Whatever gets you through the night.


Context: Tracy ran for his life after trying to steal money from a bank that happened to have a police officer inside.

You need to pick me up around the corner.

I'm at the front. Why are you around the corner?

I stole money from the bank and I ran for my life when I saw a police officer inside.

Nope. I'm not picking you up. I'm not picking up a bank robber.

What? I'll be arrested.

As you should.


I had a really good plan, though. I thought for sure I would make it happen.

But robbing a bank? That's a terrible idea.

It turned out to be. There was a police officer inside!

What?! What happened? You obviously didn't get arrested...

I had to run for my life! I ran out of there so fast and hid in someone's doghouse.

That was one of your worst ideas ever, don't be robbing banks anymore.


I'm scared to death right now.

Why is that? What happened?

Don't tell anyone, but I tried to rob a bank.

That is serious stuff man.

Yes, especially since a police officer was inside.

No way that is bad news man.


Context: Jan went to a busy nightclub with their friends during the weekend and planned to stay all night. Jan danced with their friends.

This club is so awesome, and I can't believe I never even knew it was here!

Me either, I thought you would have come to this place all the time, cause you love dancing so much!

I do love to dance!  And there are so many hot guys here!  And hot girls, too!

There sure are!  Let's ditch those two dorks we came with and find some real guys to party with!

Let's do that!  And tonight there's not going to be any leaving early, we're not walking out that door until after the sun comes up!

It's a deal.  We're going to go to only the best raves in the city from now on!


So what did you do last night?

Not much, I just stayed in and watched movies. What did you do?

Well l went to that new nightclub that had opened up last week.

That sounds like fun, how was it?

It was so amazing, and I literally stayed the entire night dancing with Susie and Kelly.

I am so jealous. I totally wish I were there too.


Hanging out with all of my friends at the nightclub is so much fun.

It's been a great night so far.

I really needed this kind of weekend after the work week I've had.

We need to do that more often.

Definitely. For now, let's just dance.

Good timing. My song is on right now.


This was definitely a fun weekend for me.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Tell me about your experiences.

I went to a busy nightclub with a close group of friends and spent the entire night there.

That must have been really fun and exciting.

It was. I danced with my friends and we stayed up all night. There was hours of fun that night.

That's good to hear. I spent some time with my family this weekend.


I was out last night and I didn't see you at the club.

Oh, I was out at a bar instead with some friends.

The nightclub was crazy and I was with all of our college friends til way late into the morning.

That sounds like so much fun dancing all night!

I danced with them all and I wanted to stay all night long.

That's so cool and maybe next time we can kick it for the weekend.


Context: Wanting to set the record straight over everything, Tracy asked Lee to meet them.

I finally called Lee and asked for a meeting.

I'm glad you two are finally going to talk.

I need to get the record straight with him. I'm tired of all the rumours and bull.

I'm sure he is too.

Yeah, he must be because he was ready to talk.


I'm meeting with Lee soon to set the record straight.

Did Lee misunderstand something?

Yeah, he's been giving other people a different account of things all week long and I need to tell him what really happened so he stops spreading misinformation.

Good luck! I hate it when people gossip about things they don't fully understand.


Context: Kendall held Robin close as they went through the haunted house because they were both afraid.

Did Kendall tell you about our trip to the haunted house on Saturday?

Yes, she said you were pretty spooked!

I really was! I am glad she held me close because I would have curled up and cried without her.

Was it that bad? That's hilarious!

I am not very good with scary things but apparently Kendall is!

Well you agreed to go in so can't blame her!


Kendall was really scared at that haunted house. She was really holding me close.

She probably felt like you were protecting her.

Nope! I was scared too!

Oh. Sounds like you guys were huddling.

Yeah. That was a scary place!

That's cool. You've got to tell me where it is. I could use a good scare right now.


Context: Bailey hated all creatures and loved to hunt them down and kill them especially ants, worms, bees and spiders.

I killed a bunch of bugs today.

It's so weird that you do that. Why do you want to kill them?

I think they're gross and I hate them. I especially hate bees, spiders, worms and ants.

You should be careful around those insects even if you hate them. Bees and spiders can be dangerous.


Context: Lee told his friends that he solved the worlds problem in his dream by encouraging peaceful discourse as a leader of the country.

I dreamt I started world Peace.

How? Maybe we can actually do it.

I was a super power leader encouraging peaceful discourse among enemies.

Sounds vague.

It was vague in the dream too. Nothing actionable.

Oh well. I guess world Peace waits until you have a specific dream.


I had a dream!

Can you share your dream with me?

I had a dream that I solved the worlds problem by encouraging peaceful discourse as a leader of the country!

Your dreams can come through, you know!

I hope they do.


Context: Bailey anticipated every argument Bailey's opponent made in the final round of the debate championship because Bailey had spent a long time studying.

Working with that debate coach really paid off. I was ready for every argument that my opponent made.

A debate coach seems kind of silly. Don't you just have to anticipate what your opponent will say?

Well we both have to anticipate what the other will say.

So what's so hard about that?

Having a response ready is key. Being concise and articulate are important.

So I guess having a coach is important and worked out for you.


Context: Casey thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The reviews were right about the place.

I'm so glad I read the reviews about that new restaurant.

Did you end up going?

Yes, I had dinner there last night with my boyfriend.

How was the food there?

I really enjoyed my meal! I can't wait to go back there again.

That sounds really good, I can't wait to try it out too.


Context: Austin carried out their threat. They meant business this time.

We did it.  We totalled their vehicle.

Haha.  Yeah and they thought we were joking!

We had to teach them a lesson somehow!

It was a brilliant plan.

Yes. Indeed.  Thanks for the help.

No problem.  I had fun!


Context: Sydney shot the ball in the goal. Sydney scored the winning goal for the team.

What a great game! I think that's the best I've ever played.

I think so too. You were on fire out there. Did you hear me cheering?

I sure did. I like how you had the whole section joining in.

They did that voluntarily. You were the star of the show today!

I hope you were filming me when I scored the winning goal.

Don't worry, I got it. We'll be able to make a nice highlight reel with all of your exploits.


We were in overtime, I got the ball, and saw Joe open in the corner.

So you passed it to him?

No, I took the shot. Everyone thought I'd pass so they moved towards Joe.

When everyone thinks one thing, better to go with the other.


I just started to play soccer.

That is not an easy game.

In my very first game I shot the ball by the goaltender and straight into the goal.

That is amazing.

Even better, my goal was the winning one as we beat them one to nothing.

I think that was more than beginner's luck.


Context: Quinn let Kai's head fall on the desk after placing his jacket there to catch him.

You won't believe what happened, Kai passed out in class and i caught his head with my jacket before it hit the desk.

That is awful, why did he pass out?

The paramedics who came said he was very dehydrated.

It is a good thing you were there otherwise he might have hurt himself.

Yeah those desks are really hard and he would have had a huge cut on his head.

I would have not reacted as quickly as you that is for sure.


Context: Taylor went swimming with friends at the beast, and had a great time splashing around.

I had so much fun.

let's go swim next week too.

Yea I'm down to do that too.

My schedule is open.

I'll open my calendar up.

See you there.


Lets spend the day going down to the swimming pool

that sounds like a great idea to me

I always have such a great time splashing around at the beach and getting everyone wet

I used to remember you splashing us when we were kids


Some of my friends and I went swimming at the Beast Swimming Pool.

Did you play games in the pool?

We played with the beach ball.

Who won the game?

We didn't play a competitive game. We just splashed around with the ball in the pool.

I'm sure you had a great time with your friends.


I love the beach and today it was a great reminder.

Did you end up going swimming with everyone?

At first I wasn't, but then the water call my name.

I wish I could've went with you guys.

We are doing it again next weekend if a lot of people don't have to work.

I know I'm off, so that's one.


I loved hanging out at the pool, had the time of my life!

Sounds like you had more fun than you can handle.

No way! I can always handle hanging out at the pool with the coolest friends around.

Wish that I could take time off from work and join you guys at the pool.

It's ok, you can join us on the weekend.

Great, sounds like a plan!


Context: Alex was a doctor and had to check riley for a disease so he stuck out Riley's tongue.

I have been quite sick and it's been a week now, doctor.

No problem, can you stuck your tongue out for me.

Sure, I can do that since I'm here.

Okay, it does seem like you have the flu based on what I can tell.

Oh, yeah that makes sense the way I have been feeling.

Take some of this medicine and get some rest for the week now.


Have you ever heard of any diseases being discovered from a doctor looking at your tongue?

Umm, that is a weird and random question.

I was just at the doctor, and he made me stick out my tongue to check for some kind of disease or maybe diseases.

Maybe that is just routine now a days, who knows with all the diseases and viruses that are going around.

Maybe you are right, I just never had that happen to me before.

I never had either, maybe it'll happen to me once I go to the doctors next.


Context: Cameron gave the class time to finish the test before moving on to the next section.

I gave my class a test.

Was the test difficult?

To do well required a full hour.

How did your class perform?

I gave them time to finish before we moved on to the next section.

They can't say you are not fair.


I am still waiting to move on to the next section.

How come you are waiting so long?

Well, I wanted the class to finish the test first before moving on to the next section.

Well that seems like the right thing to do, to make sure everyone is on the same page.

Yeah, as soon as I know the class comprehended this section is the best time to move on.

I like that way of thinking.


I'm going to give you extra ten minutes.

that's to finish the test.

it's a long learning curve.

A very complex subject right.

yea, they need to focus.

it's algebra duh.


My class was taking a test today that was in several sections

Did they all start each section at different times?

No, I tried to give everyone time to finish the first test so they could all start the next section at the same time

Oh, how did that work out?

I think the class appreciated not being stressed by seeing other students moving on before them.

You are a great teacher!


Context: Quinn was having trouble coming up with ideas for the book report. Quinn took Carson's idea instead.

Carson gave me some great ideas for my book report.

How did he know what to say?

He's a real book lover and he knew  the book I was writing about.

Wow. that was lucky for you.

It was a big help. I just needed an idea and it all seemed to work for a whole report.

Good luck. I hope you get a great grade on it.


It is so hard to write a book report.

It's not that hard.

I have trouble coming up with ideas.

I can help you.

I already stole Carson's idea.

That is ridiculous!


Context: Austin could not think of an innovative way to accomplish his goal, so Austin reinvented the wheel.

I literally could not figure out something innovative to help me with my goal of bringing in more customers.

Sometimes it's best to go back to the basics. What made your business something that people liked to begin with?

That's what I kept coming back to. I went back to the beginning and put a new spin on it.

Did it work? When I was in your shop yesterday, it was crowded.

It definitely worked. I'm already thinking about how to expand upon it.

Sometimes simple is better. People tend to overthink things.


Context: The post office was busy, so Skylar helped forward the mail.

My mom had so much mail that she had not sent out.

You went to the post office on Monday, It is so busy during that time.

I just ended up forwarding all the mail.

That is easier than standing in that line, with a mask on. You don't even have to leave home.


Hey how are you doing?

I am drowning in mail we are so busy!

I did see a lot of cars outside the post office when I pulled up.

I believe it because it is chaos in here today.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Yes could you forward this stack of mail for me?


Hey how are you?

I'm alright, how are you? Did you manage to send the mail?

The post office was very busy today, but don't you  worry!

You know that letter has to be posted by Tuesday.

I am well aware of that, that is why I forwarded the letter for you.

Thank you very much, I don't know what I would do without you.


Context: Bailey was babysitting a child for the weekend. Bailey took him to church.

I got to bring my nephew to church this weekend while i was babysitting him!

Was it hard having her there?

Not really. He behaved really well for the most part.

That's really good. Kids don't always behave that well at church.

He slept some of the time, so then he was pretty content after that.

I'm glad it went well for you!!


I really wanted to give this child some foundation in religion.

Did the child's parents mind you doing that?

It was my brother's kid. So I just did it without asking.

Wow, that sounds risky. Some people get awkward about religion.

I just want the child to have the same Christian upbringing that I had.

Well good luck with your brother. He might be mad at you for awhile.


Context: Jordan put her car on the market and is happy and content that she sold it for a profit and she is going to buy a new car with the money from the sale.

So happy I finally sold my car. I was lucky to sell it over the Kelley Blue Book value.

Most people never make over that. You are lucky. What are you doing with the money?

I'm going to buy a new car.

What kind of car are you looking for?

Something good for the environment. Maybe a Prius.

Good for you! I love my Prius.


I'm going to use money from the sale.

What sale?

I have placed my car on the market and happy with the profit it turned out.

What are you going to buy?

A sedan probably.

awesome!


Did you hear the news? I found a buyer for my old car!

Wow, that's great to hear. Was it on the market for long?

Not at all. I found a buyer the same week.

I'm happy for you! What will you drive now?

I'm going to the auto lot today to find a new car to buy with my profits.

Awesome, I'll come too!


Context: Taylor's experience culminated into a magically climatic moment when they were in the middle of the dance.

I had an amazing time last night dancing with a mysterious woman.

Wow that sounds amazing how did you meet.

She struck up a conversation with me and I could feel instant chemistry.

That sounds so romantic.

I asked her to dance and it was a magical moment we danced the tango.  It was a seductive and very climatic movement everyone on the dance floor stared at us.

My goodness did you ask her out on a date?


i had a magical moment tonight

what happened?

i was dancing with someone and it just felt really moving.

did you know this person?

kind of.

that does sound pretty nice.


Context: After forgetting to set the timer, Jordan turned the oven on and put the muffins in.

I just put the muffins in the oven, so they should be ready to eat in about 20 minutes.

That's great. Did you remember to set the timer?

Whoops! I completely forgot.

This is why you keep burning things, Jordan.


I burned the muffins to a crisp.

I thought that you set the timer, before you put them in the oven.

I was busy with kids, and just forgot to turn it on, and then the doorbell rang.

We all forget to set the timer, I would not beat yourself up to bad.


I forgot to set the timer when I was trying to make a muffins today.

That is horrible. Did you remember to take them out in time?

I did not. I simply put them in the oven and waited to hear a timer that never went off.

When did you eventually remember to take them out?

When they were dried out and it was too late.

Well, I guess you try again tomorrow.


Context: Addison felt much better after learning that they had not in fact missed the date to audition for a part in the play.

I was so worried that I had missed my chance!

Missed your chance at what?

Auditioning for a part in the school play! I really want to be in it!

Oh yah, that is not until Friday! Today is only Tuesday silly!

I know, but I guess I just got my days of the week confused!

Looks like it! You are good!


There was this play at the local play house that I really wanted to be in but I thought I missed the audition.

Did it turn out you hadn't missed it?

I didn't. And I was so relieved I just felt so much better. Auditions are next week, I thought they were last month.

You were off by a month.

I knew it was the 20th. I just thought June 20th.

Well at least you figured it out before July 21st.


I am going to audition for the play. I just found out it's not too late.

Cool! I hope you get the part.

Yeah, the character I want to play is one of my favourites

Then I am sure you will get the part.


Context: Bailey was in a fight and was told the school would be sending an expulsion notice.

I got myself into serious trouble with that stupid fight.

You mean the fight you had with Carol after school last week?

Yeah, I think I'm getting expelled. They're going to send a letter to my parents.

That's really bad news, Bailey. What will your parents do?

I'll probably be grounded for eternity!

Maybe if your parents have a conference with the principal you can stay in school.


Context: Jan took her pills to the doctor so they could see what kind of medication she was taking.

I went to see my doctor yesterday.

What was the reason?

I took my pills to the doctor, so they can see what kind of medication I was taking.

Oh I see. Is everything ok?

Everything is fine.

Good to hear.


Context: Since everyone else turned around when they heard the loud noise, Quinn also turned her head and saw the car crash.

When I heard the loud noise, I turned around with everyone and saw the car crash.

Where was this?

It was on the highway out of town.  It was horrible.  Multiple cars slammed into each other.

Hope people weren't terribly hurt.

I heard about it later on the radio.  Two teenagers died in the crash.  They weren't wearing their seatbelts.

That's tragic.


I feel really shaky right now because I saw a car crash earlier.

Oh, no! Is everybody okay?

I don't know. I just heard a loud noise, turned my head and then saw two cars collide with each other.

I heard the freeway was blocked off earlier today, so that must be the reason. I hope nobody died.


Oh my goodness, I heard the screeching and it was so loud.

Yes, that car could not put on the brakes fast enough.

Then I turned and boom, the car just rolled into the intersection and crashed into the truck.

It was very scary and the noise was devastating to hear.

I ran over there to try to see how I could help.

The police have been called and they are on the way.


Context: Austin wanted to do a favour for Kendall so he decorated Kendall's house for the party.

Austin decorated my house for the party.  He did me a big favour.

How nice of him.

I was just too busy working late every night so he offered to help me.

What was the party for?

It's my roommate's birthday and I wanted to throw her a party and invite her friends.

Birthday parties are the best of times.


Austin is a good guy.

Why you say that?

He did me a favour and decorated the house for the party.

A man decorated for you. Wow that is special.


I'm so happy that you remembered the party

i would never forget it and i was waiting to decorate your house right after you left

so that's why you were acting weird all day

guilty as charged i guess


Context: Jan started to ring the dinner bell. They were alerting people that it was time to eat.

I could not get people to come to supper.

You must have gotten tired of yelling.

We bought a bell.

That would work.

Now when I start to ring the dinner bell people are alerted that it is time to eat.

That was a clever purchase.


I had to ring the bell so everyone knew dinner was done

oh that's how you inform them when foods ready ?

yea i usually just ring the bell a few times

oh so people then know it's dinner time

yes

that's a great idea you have there.


I finished cooking and rang the bell for everyone to eat.

Oh, what did you cook?

I made burgers and fries today.

Wow, that sounds good!

You can come and get some if you want.

I might because I'm pretty hungry right now!


Everyone it's time to eat

I heard that dinner Bell going

Yep I had to ring it so you guys could come down and eat

I'll be down there in a few after I finish up this paper

How long is a few?

Probably like 10 to 15 minutes.


Context: Casey begged her parents for one of the ice cream cones, but they told her she needed to finish her chicken dinner first.

Can I get ice cream from grocery store?

Sure, however you need to finish the chicken first!

Ugh I'm so tired of protein.

You also you need to finish the veggies.

I will.

I'll do it and you can do it.


I wish I lived at your house!

Why do you want to live at my house, Casey?

I wanted a ice cream cone and my momma made me eat my chicken dinner first.

My momma does the same thing. You have to eat healthy meal before you have a treat she always says.

Poop on that. It should be the other way around.


My parents wouldn't make me have some ice cream.

Man. Why are they being like that?

They wanted me to eat their crappy dinner.

I get it. You should've just ate the dinner.


I want an ice cream cone now!

You can have one once you finish you dinner.

That's not fair. I hate the taste of chicken.

Well, just eat it. Once you do, you can have your treat.

No fair!

Beggars can't be choosers girl!


Context: After trying so hard and for so long, Austin finally won their first game.

It was like walking through a long desert and you finally find water.

Are you happy with the way the team played?

I think our team finally played the way I knew they could.

Do you think you can win next week?

If we play like we did today then we have a good chance.

Well good luck next week and I hope you get another win.


Context: Remy confirmed the reservation and described the situation to the front of house and thanked them for the help.

As soon as I confirmed the reservation, I thanked them for the help and then wrapped it up.

Did they understand why it took so long?

They did, I just had to explain to them the situation at the front of the house.

I'm glad everything went well!


Context: Casey slammed on their brakes after seeing a deer in the road while riding with others.

Whew. I can't believe I almost took out a deer.

Your mom would have rung your neck if you crashed her Jag.

I think so but she would be more worried about us.

Maybe but she puts this stupid Jag ahead of everything in life.

That's not fair. Just because she's been sleeping in the Jag instead of with dad does mean she cares more about a car.

Dude, I was not suppose to know that. TMI.


Context: Skylar had a few options ahead of her but she chose to play the offensive move and get to them before the go to her.

I'm always trying to think of the best chess move that I can make.

Yea, It's tough to make the right move all of the time.

Yea, but I usually find a way to win.

That's great! I see the move you are taking.

Yea, I like to take the offensive move quickly.

I see! Whatever helps you to win I guess.


I made sure my ex husband's family would never take my cash.

What did you do?

I had someone steal their money.

How did stealing their money help?

Now they aren't so focused on me!

Sounds like a smart plan!


I have a few moves in the game so I played the offensive and attacked the opponents before they attacked me.

That's a great strategy.

It helped me win the game.   Gaming is very much about strategy.

You are such a deep thinker.  I can see you doing really well.

I am pretty good at games.

Do you spend a lot of time playing?


Context: Remy thought she was having a boy, but Remy gave birth to a baby girl.

How did the boy come out a girl?

Ha, that is a good question! Looks like the doctors are not always right.

Exactly, that is scientific evidence that doctors can be wrong.

We should write a book about it so people know!

Oh believe me, plenty of people know now!

Guess Remy will have to wear boy clothes for a bit!


I am really surprised i had a girl because the doctor told me it was going to be a boy

it is really surprising she got it wrong since she seemed to be so positive

well, i guess it's not that big of a deal really since it is a nice surprise

i guess we can take some things back to the store since we wont be needing them then

sounds like a good idea to me


This whole time I thought I was having a little boy.

Yeah, and so did everyone else.

Luckily we did gender neutral designs.

Yeah because that would've been a disaster.

Unless we did it like way back in the days when the colours were swapped.

That's right, pink was boys in blue was girls.

I was. I told my mom about it because I am so sick of him losing things!

Did you ever find it?


Context: Carson seemed like they wanted to focus on work. Kai left Carson alone.

Carson was ignoring me all day. He was really into his work.

Why did you stay there then?

I didn't. I left so he could focus, but I was really hoping to hang out with him.

I'm sorry. The sooner he finishes the project the sooner he'll have time for you.

I know. I'm just impatient.

You have always been that way!


I'm going to leave you alone.

Thanks I need to concentrate on work.

We need money.

Money controls everything so that's right.

We need to pay bills.

I'll start working.

That's nice.


Did you see me dive in to get the ball?

Yeah, I did. So what?

I threw it in the deep end of the pool.

Its an inflatable pool.


Lauren! I'm going after the ball!

What? Where did you throw it?

In the deep end by accident! Sorry!

Can you wait until I get down there so we can stop shouting at each other?

Nope! Going after it!

Alright but don't forget to wear your floaties!

I know I been looking at this for awhile now. I really want to go here.

Man that is what I need to start doing soon. Picking out what college I want to go to.

If you want some help let me know.


I've been searching for the best college to go to when I graduate high school and I finally found it.

Really?  That's great!  Did you apply yet?

No, not yet.  Last night I showed the brochures to my mom and dad and they aren't very happy with it.

Why not?  I thought they were so happy that you wanted to go to college.

They are, but they want me to go to a college closer to home, and the one I like is all the way across the country.

I'm sorry, it's going to make it more difficult for you if your parents don't support your decisions!

I don't think I've ever been so mad before in my life!

What happened?

I tore down all of the posters in my bedroom, threw away my record collection and got rid of the lamp too.

Why on earth did you do all of that?

Those were my girlfriend's things, and last week I learned she slept with another guy.

Yikes! I'm so sorry. No wonder you're mad.


I had a bonfire last night to burn all the rest of the stuff my girlfriend left at the house.

A bonfire? Did you get rid of all their stuff?

I was so angry about our fight and breakup that I threw out most of it but the paper and pictures I decided to burn.

Did you have a ceremony or something?

No, just some friends over after I'd cleaned up and we had drinks around the fire.

Well at least it sounds cathartic. I hope you feel better now.


Context: Sasha extended Skylar's seats at her expense so that everyone could enjoy the show in comfort.

I won't be done for at least an hour. Her room's a mess!


I'll tell you what. Jan is a lifesaver.

Why, what happened with Jan?

Well, I'm overloaded at work and school. I don't have time to do my household chores.

I can understand that...you're always busy.

Yes, but Jan needs some money so I hired her to help with my house and she's doing an amazing job cleaning.

Great, it works out for both of you, then.


Hey friend, how are you?

Yea i put up seven total

Wow

Well i don't want anything to happen like to that poor girl

Oh i understand, that's awesome you did that though


I've been doing a lot of outdoor work lately at outposts.

What do you do so far out on trails?

I put together shelters far from the road so that stranded hikers will have some shelter to rest in while they wait for help.

That could save someone's life in the winter!

Well at least you made it home safely. Next time you should call someone to drive you home.


I didn't get home until almost 6 last night.

Why what happened that took that long to get home?

Well the school bus never showed up to pick me up so I had to walk home.

I have no idea. I was so tired by the time I got home that I ate dinner and laid down.

Well hopefully you got some good rest at least.

Yes. You weren't allowed to use your mom's car again and you had to ride your bike everywhere.

Okay, man. Let's see a movie instead.

I decided to sell by motorcycle.

Why? That's one great looking Ducati.

I heard if you ride a motorcycle, the odds of dying in an accident are high.

If you don't ride one, the odds of dying of boredom are high too.

I never thought of that.

They call it opportunity cost.


I sold my motorcycle yesterday.

Why did you do that for?

I have been reading up on the odds of dying on the bike and I just found out I am going to be having a baby.

What! Congrats! It is a higher risk, since most of you guys won't wear a helmet.

I am going to buy a mini van.


Did you know I sold my motorcycle?

No way-why?

I saw this story on the news about motorcycles and it freaked me out- they're so dangerous!

Well doesn't everyone know motorcycles are dangerous?

Yeah, but for some reason I never thought I was taking that much of a risk.

Well you can use that money to put towards a nice car!

I can't believe this is finally over.

I still can't believe you sued the company because they wouldn't promote you.

I knew it was because I was female and I had so much proof.

Yeah, all of those emails and company documents just won your case for you.

They are crazy to think that I can't do the job. I taught all those guys how to do the job.

Yeah, isn't that crazy? But you'll be showing them now.


This nightmare is finally over.

I'm so proud of you and happy that you finally got it done.

It took a long time but I was not giving up this fight.

You did an amazing job and are an example to all women.

Thank you and I'm  going to try my best to make sure I live up to everything.

Well you really put Taylor in an impossible situation.

I feel really bad for that too. Has Taylor said anything to you about what happened?

Only that you got him into a bad situation.

I'm going to owe him big time for what I got him into.

Maybe you can agree to pay his attorney fees.


Look Taylor, you have to come with me.  If you don't I am going to tell Rachel what you did with Cindy.

Dude seriously?  You are putting me in a really terrible position.

I'm sorry but I really need you to come along.  I can't do this without you.

You know Rachel means the world to me but I don't want to get involved in this mess you've made.

Sorry man, if you don't come along I'm going to tell her.

Fine.  I guess I'm coming.

I never watch the news, but I really wanted to catch up on what was going on so I decided to watch the news the other night.

What did you see. It is never good.

I know. I wish I hadn't watched because it only made me sad.

Everything seems so sad on the news. I think that is what they like to do.

I know after it got done I had to put on a comedy just so I could go to sleep.

That is exactly why I never watch it anymore!

Let's wear those matching pants we got a Zara's.

Sounds like a plan to me!


I think I'm going to wear pants tonight.

Really? But it's so hot today! I'm going to wear a skirt.

Well I checked the weather and it's supposed to drop down to the forties tonight. That's a bit cold for me.

Oh that is cold. I'm glad you told me! What colour pants are you wearing so I don't pick the same thing.

I'm was thinking of wearing my red pants.

Okay, I'll wear black ones then.


It's going to be chilly tonight.

Is it? It's pretty warm right now.

Yep! I checked the weather this morning. I wore this longer pants for that reason.

Oh that was a good idea. Hopefully I don't get too cold!

Always got to check the weather man, very important.

I will in the future, good plan.


Whoa! Its so cold today

Its freezing Skylar, and by the way, I saw you with some booty shorts. In this weather dear?

Crazy as it may sound, I could not handle the falling temperature. I had to put on some pants

You definitely had to. We don't want you falling sick at this time

The winter this year is extreme


I was wearing shorts earlier but I decided to change.

Why?  Your outfit looked really good.

Thanks, but the temperature is going to drop tonight.

Maybe I should have worn pants too.

Well, I'm always cold so maybe you'll be okay.

You're probably right.


Context: Sasha is an animal activist. One day they went to the zoo for an animal rights protest.

I think people need to start standing up for the animals more often.

They do because they're so defenceless.

The zoo is one of the worst places for animals in this world.

Do you think we pay money in order to go see these poor animals held in jail.

That's how you have to look at it, maybe we will start cancelling the zoo.

If you need any help next time let me know because I want to go to the zoo and do some protesting as well.


Come to the zoo with me.

Great, I love looking at the animals.

I am not going to look at them; I'm going to protest their treatment.

What's bad about how they're treated?

How would you like to live in a cage?

You've made your point.  I'll get my jacket.


Context: Remy pushed the ball too far, so it rolled out into the street.

I really shouldn't have pushed the ball this far into the street

hopefully the cars will see it and not run it this time

I'm sure they will see it because it is bright yellow and is really noticeable

I would think they should but you never know


Oh no my ball! It rolled into the street!

It's too busy to go and get it right now! Wait until there is a red light

Will I have time to run and get it?

Yes if you hurry! Get ready to go and I will let you know when there is a red light

OK

Go! It's a red light


The ball was rolling out into the street when I saw the car speeding my way.  I had pushed it too hard.

Did the car stop in time?

Unfortunately not.  It was trying to avoid hitting the ball and crashed into the parked car instead.

Was anyone hurt?

The driver hit the windshield.  His head was bleeding.  The ambulance came quickly to take him away.

That's a bloody mess.

It's time to give him the heave-ho.

I already evicted him.

It serves him right.


I had to evict Alex today and I feel really bad about it.

Isn't that your best friend? Why did you have to evict him?

Because he wasn't paying rent, and he is my best friend, but I also run a business.

How long was he not paying rent for?

He didn't pay me for two months straight, and it was about to be a third.

That sucks, but like you said, its a business.


I had to evict Alex today. I felt so damn bad but he wasn't paying his share of rent.

For how long?

He hasn't paid for two months straight and this is the third month coming up.

That's too bad. He's a good guy but I understand your point of view, too.

Thanks for not bashing me. I feel so bad about this.


Alex was evicted from our apartment after not paying his share of the rent for two months straight, and now we need to find a roommate.

I can ask around for you.

We are looking for a female who's cleans up after herself.

I'll make a note of that.  How much is rent?

To share a bedroom, it's $500 a month.

Not too bad.


Context: Cameron drove a drunk Jesse home and laid hits keys on the table after he dropped off to sleep.

I had never seen someone so drunk.

You are an amazing friend.

My whole body aches.

You need some pain killers.


I just walked in there and left his key on the table. I'm so pissed.

You did the right thing. You know that.

I do. I really don't want to be friends with Jesse anymore.

I'm sorry that you all fell out so quickly.

Me too. He was super fun when he's sober.

Yeah I could tell.

Addison has the role of Marion in the play based on the Hitchcock film

And you, of course, are Norman....

Way too much!

Did you succeed in impressing them?

I'm not sure.  I was too drunk to tell! And I paid for it the next day.  I had a really bad hangover.


I have such a headache today.

Did you go to a party or something?

No, just to a bar with some friends. But I normally don't drink and last night I was doing shots.

Why would you do shots if you don't drink? That sounds kind of risky.

I don't know. I guess I wanted to impress everyone and look more fun than I am. I tossed back quite a few whiskeys.

Well drink lots of water today. You're probably dehydrated.


I always wonder if my friends like me.

I am sure they do because you are such a kind person.

Sometimes though i feel like I have to impress them.

How do you do that?

Well at the party we had some drinks and I did a little trick tossing the drink behind me after I drank just to show them I was cool too.

You are cool. I'm sure they thought that even without the drink tricks

I got the best SUV at the dealership.

Does it have good gas mileage?

34 miles to the gallon!

Wow, where did you get the money?

My uncle gave it to me.

Well can you pay back the money you owe me?


I found the car I want finally.  It's taken me a while and I've visited many dealerships.

Are you going to buy it?

It's a bit out of my price range.  I'll see if my parents will help me out with the down payment.

I hope they do.

Me too.  It's my dream car.  Just everything is exactly as I want it.

You can drive me to the movies when you buy it.


I finally picked out a car I like.

Did you go to the dealers for it?

Yeah, that's where I found it. I searched for hours and must have sat in dozens of cars.

That's a lot of work. I am guessing you're certain about the one you picked.

I sure am. and I love it. It's exactly my style.

Congratulations. I can't wait to see it.

Yeah, your rest comes first. It would have been hard to work that tired.


I need to get up early for work tomorrow. I'm sure you do too.

No he asked me not to.

What did he do about it.

He repaired it and cost him many dollar

OH! thanks to him.


I think i may have made a big mistake today

well, what did you do this time?

i got in a small accident and ruined Casey's car

that is going to cost her a bunch of money

i can probably pay her back in a few months


I still can't believe that I hit that other car.

What are you doing to do it is going to cost Jan a lot.

I plan on paying for it, it was my fault.

I know but still her cost will still raise because of this.

I am scared to see how much this will cost Jan.


The accident I got into with Jan's car is costing a lot of money!

How? I thought it was just a small accident?

I thought so too, but the paint on her car is a special custom paint, so that alone is over $1,000

Well damn, remind me to never have custom paint on my car.

Yeah, or let me drive it so it needs to be redone.

Accidents happen man, its just money, you can make more tomorrow.

Really?  That's so awesome!  I think that will be such a great adventure for  you.

I really can't wait.  I love my job but backpacking has always been a really big goal for me.

I'm really proud of you.  Are you going alone?  Because I think that would be something I would love to do also, and if you want company, I so much would love to go with you.

Really?  Oh my god, I would honestly love it if you could do this with me.  It would be our greatest adventure together!

Well then, I have some money saved up, and I will start putting back more money each pay check so we can go together!  I'm in!

Toothache  is terrible. I hope you get better sooner.

It is better than yesterday. I had to visit the dentist because I could not chew food due to pain.

What problem did he diagnose?


Bill finally took me the new deli on 4th but my tooth hurt so bad I couldn't enjoy the food

It sounds like you are going to have that looked at

Even though I hate that idea, I went to the dentist Monday, was there all day!

Did they find the problem?

Sure did, I needed a root canal, the procedure was uncomfortable but the tooth feels better now

Thank God! Good thing you didn't let that go any longer


I finally went to the dentist since the tooth pain was so bad.

What did the dentist say?

I needed a root canal.

That's not good news.

It wasn't. But at least I had it done a few days ago.

That explains why you're eating all my food.

I adopted her because no one wanted to adopt her,

That is do considerate of you!

Aww, that is so sweet.

Just honest!


I'm really happy with Rex

I bet your dog was a big hit with the kids.

Oh, he was. And the teacher loved him. It was fun.


I didn't think it was such a bad idea to bring my dog to school today.

You didn't find it a odd choice?

No way, it was show and tell and it was my turn!

Well normally you would bring in a toy, or a souvenir to show off.

Well my dog just turns out to be my favourite thing to show off to others.

That's obvious to everyone now!

I know, I can't believe you opened them all.

I knew better, but I couldn't stop myself. And then I felt really bad.

I'm sure you won't do it again, at least. Isn't that true?

Yeah, it's true. There was too much bad feelings afterward, for everyone, because of what I did.

Then it was a good lesson for you.


I got grounded for a week!

What did you do to get that long?

I ended up Alex's presents on his birthday, I was just so excited and wanted to see what he got.

If you had not opened the presents you would not have gotten grounded.

I know, but it was worth seeing his face.


I couldn't wait.  So I opened all of Alex's presents.

But they are his presents. It's his birthday.

I know. But I was so curious.

Thankfully no one is hurt.


Have you heard that Robin's house is due for a demolition?

I've heard that it is so old that it is considered a hazard.

Yes. I had lots of fun setting it on fire and watching it burn.

Isn't that illegal?

I had permission from Robin, and it is going to be bulldozed to the ground anyway.

I think you are a pyromaniac.


I feel like an arsonist!

Well, Robin's house was going to be demolished anyway.

I know, but that way we could collect on the insurance.

You mean to say you set the house on fire to collect insurance?

That's correct, we can gain a lot of money this way.

That's criminal!

Really?  Does he have a nice garden?

He does, but I noticed that some of his flowers were the type that do better when they're not in direct sunlight all day long.  So for a surprise I built him a nice little shade for that corner of his garden

Wow, that was really nice of you!

I thought so too, but Austin got mad at me for interfering and told me to get my stuff and leave and don't ever come back to his house or speak to him for the rest of his life.

I think that seems a little extreme...I guess I won't give him that set of trowels and gardening gloves I was planning to give him for his birthday...

I know but Addison hates surprises and will call out sick.

Well, you better fix this. We spent over a thousand bucks on this stupid party.

I know I just get really excited sometimes and I forget.

I mean as long as it doesn't get back to the person you are actually having the party for then I guess it's fine.

Hopefully he doesn't and the party is still a success.

What did you all end up doing?

We went to the dive bar down the street and did karaoke.

Well, that sounds like fun.  Did you do a song?

I don't want to talk about my singing and how people laughed!

I can only imagine!


These drinks are great.

I'm having a lot of fun. Let's order more drinks.

We don't want to become stoned. That would be hilarious but not good.

You're right. Let's dance. The music has a great beat.

After I finish this cocktail, I'm heading for the dance floor.

I'll wait for you.


I'm having a great time.

Me too; I hadn't heard that joke before.

Let's have another drink.

I love this bar.

I come here all the time.

I will too from now on.


Context: Remy's kids were lonely playing by themselves, so Remy wanted Carson's kids to come play too.

I put together a fun playdate for my kids and Carson's kids.

Don't they have friends of their own to play with?

There aren't very many kids in the neighbourhood, so they're always playing along when Carson's kids aren't over.

I hope they hit it off. Both you and Carson have great kids, so there's no reason they won't get along.


Context: lee was a nice person so he put Cameron's sweater around Jordan to keep her warm.

Lee didn't want me to feel cold.

Did lee warmed you up.

To some extent but he put Cameron's sweater around me.

That is so thoughtful of him

He is such a nice person.


Thanks for the sweater Lee.

You're welcome. You looked cold.

It is getting chilly. I love how this sweater feels, it's so soft.

It's Cameron's. He left it at my house.

Well thanks for being such a nice guy, and thank Cameron for having such great taste in sweaters!

I'll be sure to let him know!


Lee is a nice person.

Everyone knows that.

He saw I was cold and did something about it.

He is very considerate.

He put Cameron's sweater around me to keep me warm.

I hope that didn't leave Cameron out in the cold.


Context: Remy took their parents to court because their parents wouldn't let them play video games as much as they wanted.

I just came back from court, it has been an stressful day.

Why were you in court? What happened?

I took my parents to court because they didn't let me be myself and play my videogames as much as I want, they want me to follow their rules.

They are your parents, you suppose to follow their rules, come on lol

No, is not fair when they want to be telling you what to do all the time, so I am taking them to court so I can do what I want!

Good luck my friend, keep me posted on how things goes at the court.


I finally did it. I took my parents to court of the video game issue.

No you did not. What happened?

They would not let me play video games as much as I wanted so that's what they get.

So you are going to let the court make them let you play more?

Yes, that is it. I'm going to win too.


I'm taking my parents to court.

Why would you do such a thing?

Because they wont let me play video games.

That's silly.


Context: Jan was looking for work so Ash gave Jan an opportunity to come to work as Ash's coffee shop.

Hey Jan. I heard you needed a job.

Yes, that's right. My company closed because of the lockdowns.

If you're interested, you can work at my coffee shop.

Yes, that would be great.

Awesome, come Monday.

I'll be there. Thanks for the opportunity.


hey friend, how are you?

I am fine thank you, how are you?

I am well too, I met Jan and she was looking for some work so I gave her an opportunity to come for work at my coffee shop.

Okay, You did good for Jan. you are kind and generous, appreciate it.

Thanks!

We should help people who are in need.


I gave Jan a job at the coffee shop.

Was she looking for a job?

Yeah, she had been looking for work for a while.

Does she know anything about how to make coffee?

I figure if she doesn't she can just take care of cleaning the tables.

That's going to be weird since I go to your coffee shop all the time.


Context: Bailey was really good at sports. He wanted to try out for some teams. Bailey ended up joining the football team.

I wish I had waited to try out for basketball instead of football.

Why. You are so good at football

I'm better at basketball and basketball is inside and less contact.

Yeah. Maybe talk to the basketball coach. He may let you walk on late.

I can't do that because we are still in playoffs. Basketball will have started several weeks before football is over.

I guess next year you'll play basketball.


I've been thinking of trying out for some more teams.

You are really good at sports. I think you should.

I joined the football team.

Wow, congratulations. I bet the try-outs were hard.

They were. I'm sure the practices and games will be challenging as well.

You will do great.


Context: Taylor saw the new video game Lee held in their hands and asked them if they could play.

There is a lot of stuff out here for me to do but I really want to play that game you have.

Oh you do?  Yeah this game looks like it can be really fun to play

Do you even have the right controllers and stuff?

Yes I do.  There is a lot of stuff out here to help me get the right controllers.  Ill be playing immediately

That's awesome!  I think you should do this regularly in regards to getting games and such

yeah i really should


I saw Lee new video game

Did you play it?

Not yet.

Did you ask Lee?

Yes, I did.

Okay


Lee got this really cool new video game.  I saw him holding it and asked him if I could try it.

Did he let you play it?

He did.  It's actually a two person game so we played together.

Was it as cool as it looked?

Even cooler.  I want to save up and get it for myself.


Hey Lee, is that the new video game?

Yes it is Taylor!

Do you think I could play it?

Sure thing! It is a lot of fun. Here ya go.

Thanks a lot Lee!


I saw Lee with the new video game.

I've heard it is great. Have you played it yet?

I borrowed it from Lee and I will be playing it tonight.

I'd love to be your first opponent.

Why don't you come to my house tonight?

I will definitely make time for that.


Context: Austin asked Sydney whom they would like see this weekend, since Austin hated Amy, Sydney's other friend. Austin made Sydney choose.

Do you have any plans for this weekend?

Well Amy asked me to go to her house but I'm not sure. Why?

I was thinking we could hang out, I do not like Amy.

Okay, well, I suppose we could hang out.

Sounds good.

See you then.


There is a lot of people in our circle who don't care for one another and honestly I don't care for your friend Amy

Right

There is a lot to choose and there is some stuff that I cant do.  You're going to have to make a choice to either see me or Sydney

that's fair.  I hope I don't have to do this on a consistent basis.  I hate choosing who I have to be around because I like both of you guys

yeah but whatever we decide to do this weekend I don't think Amy needs to be in the picture

okay sounds like a plan


It was hard for me to pick who to see this weekend.

How did you end up deciding?

I asked Sydney whom she would like to see this weekend.

Did she pick Amy?

No, I hate Amy, so Sydney chose another friend.

Why do you hate Amy?


Context: Aubrey was working on a math test. Aubrey understood the problem well so she had no issues.

The math test was so easy . I knew how to answer all the problems.

You are better at math than anyone.

No, I'm not that good. I just study a little more.

You always get As in math class for a reason.


This is a really hard test that I am about to go to right now.

What is the test in?

It is a math test, but is pretty difficult.

Oh, geese well I hope you do okay on the test.

Oh, I'll be fine, I understand the problems and subject matter so it will be easy.

Well that's good, you'll definitely get a good grade on it then.


Context: Carson broke their fall using the pillow but they still scraped their knee and it was bleeding.

Honestly, sometimes I am so clumsy. Last night, I stumbled over the stool in my living room.

Ouch. That's a bad looking bruise. It doesn't look like it tickled.

Not at all. Even though I managed to break my fall with one of the couch pillows that were on the floor.

Broke your fall? You like you almost broke your knee, not your fall.

Can you believe it? Would you look at the size of that scrape, just from that little fall.

You have to be more careful, Carson. I swear, half the time you don't even look where you're going.


Look out! I'm throwing this for you!

You saved my head from getting hit but my knee got scraped by the pavement.

Hold on, I am bringing my first aid kit back for you.

Please hurry!

Here it is, take whatever you need.

Thank you so much!


I broke my fall using the pillow but I still scraped my knee badly.  It was bleeding a lot.

Did you go to the doctor?

No, I just cleaned my knee and wrapped it up with some gauze I had in my medicine cabinet.

Did that stop the bleeding?

It did after a while.  It's still sore.

It'll take time for it to completely heal.


Context: Lee was nervous when he realized he had a message from Skylar, but he decided to write back.

I sent Lee a message last night.

What did you say? And did he respond?

I asked him out on a date and he said okay!

Congrats! When's the date?

We're going to the movies on Saturday.


Context: Casey struggled to get the grill lit. Casey raked over the coals.

I was the cook yesterday.

You were in charge of the barbecue?

Yes, and I couldn't get the grill to light.

What did you do?

I raked the coals and I got it started up.

I imagine that was a relief.


I'm not sure when dinner will be ready, I am having trouble with the grill.

What is the problem?

I can't seem to get it to light.

Did you try to rearrange the charcoal?

Yeah, I did rake the coals over.  They are grey on the edges but don't seem to be really burning.

You can try to add some more starter fluid, but be careful when you relight the coals.
