Skylar just tilted my head back and whispered something to me.

That's strange, what did she say?

I don't know, I couldn't hear her very well

I wonder what she was trying to tell you.

It must've been something secret if she didn't want anyone else to hear.

You will have to ask her to repeat what she said.


Context: Skylar found alcohol under Remy's bed and was upset because Remy is only 14 years old.

Remy is only 14 and he has no business hiding alcohol under his bed!

I agree, I would not be happy about this, where is he getting it from anyway?

That is one of many questions I have, I just haven't decided how to confront him about it yet

Well you should be careful you don't want to push him away.

It's not something he should be doing at his age!

I agree, I'm here for you if you need support


I had to ground Remy today.

What did he do now?

I found a bottle of alcohol under his bed.

Wow, I can't believe he's already drinking.

Me too. He's only 14 years old.

It's better he learns that alcohol will get him trouble at an early age.


Context: Cameron told Remy to call and make an appointment with the doctor when she had a cold for two weeks.

Cameron keeps telling me to call and make an appointment with the doctor.

What for, do you still have that cold?

Unfortunately, yes. It's been two weeks.

Remy. That's not good. I agree with Cameron, you should call the doctor.

You're right, I should. I will call later today and make an appointment.

Good. I hope you feel better.


I wish this cold would go away.

It seems like you've been sick for a long time.

Yeah, its been two weeks.

You'd better call the doctor and make an appointment, that's too long of a time to have a cold.

You're right, Cameron already told me too, I should've listened when he said.

Hopefully they can help you.


Context: Austin wanted to make a wedding dress for Cameron, so Austin took Cameron's measurements.

I took Cameron's measurements so that I can make a wedding dress for Cameron.

She's so lucky.  You are one of the best designers.

She's my childhood friend. It's an honour for me to do this for her.

It's a big day and she'll cherish it forever.

She's a beautiful bride.  She'll look magnificent on her wedding day.

She really is a natural beauty.


Did you hear Cameron is getting married soon?

Yes, I did, it's so exciting.

I want to make a wedding dress for Cameron, it's going to look amazing.

That would be awesome.

I just need to take her measurements and I can get started.

You should ask her, the sooner you have them the sooner you can start.


I just got home from Cameron's house. I'm making her wedding dress!

Wow, she must trust your skill a lot.

I think so. I had to take her measurements today so I can get started.

I imagine it takes a long time to make a wedding dress.

It does. There are some very intricate spots on it. She's going to love it!


Context: After having a huge fight the day prior, Jordan went along to get along.

I had a huge fight the day before.  I just want to make peace.

Who did you fight with?

My friend's brother we had a big disagreement about who won a game.

Wow, seems like a lot of drama over a game, it's good that you want to get along now though.

I just hope he isn't still angry about it so we can move on.

I hope so too.


My dad and I had a big fight yesterday.

Are you still angry at him?

No, I actually made peace with him already.

Good to hear that

I love my dad and I would do anything to get along with him.

You are a good son.


Context: Quinn gave Jan some money for safekeeping. Jan put Quinn's money in the safe.

I recently got some money from Quinn for safekeeping.

I hope you have hidden it somewhere secure.

I have put it all in my safe, nobody will be able to get it in there.

That's a smart decision.

I thought so too


Quinn gave me some money to put in my safe.

how much money was it?

It had to be at least twenty thousand dollars.

Where did Quinn get all that money from?

I don't know but it made me kind of nervous.

I bet it did, I've never seen twenty thousand at one time before.


Context: Carson was building a garden in his backyard. Carson loved tomatoes and wanted some of his own.

You know how I've been saying I want to plant some tomatoes?

Yes I remember.

I decided to start a tomato garden in my backyard.

Wow, that's great! Any other fruits or vegetables?

I want to start off small and see how the tomatoes turn out first.

Good idea. Let me know how they turn out.


I'm going to do some building.

What you going to build?

I loved tomatoes and I want my own. So I'm going to build a garden.

That's cool.

I have just the right space in my backyard for it.

Good luck.


I can't wait until my tomato plant grow

How long does it usually take to grow

At most a month or two

You will have a lot of tomatoes for yourself

I always wanted to have my own tomatoes in my own backyard


Context: Taylor pressed Skylar's hands on the book on had her make an oath to the office.

I made Skylar take the oath to the office

So she's in politics now? That's great news

I put her hands on the book and everything along with it, she's in!

She worked hard, she deserves it

I agree totally

I wish her the best


Context: Jan was playing jazz piano, but just struck every key after trying to hard.

Learning how to play the piano is so frustrating.

Just keep practicing. You'll get better over time.

I don't know. It's just so hard.

Don't give up. You've already done so much.


I used to really enjoy playing the jazz piano.

Do you not anymore?

I am just finding it too hard.

If you keep practising I am sure you will get back into it.

I should really practice a lot more.

Let me know how you get on.


I was having a lot of fun there, but got lazy and agitated.

I loved your playing, will you play again?

Yes I will.

I can't wait to hear it.

I'll be more organized and less sloppy this time around.

It sounds good to me!


Context: Riley and Alex were having a race, Alex was right behind Riley but just couldnt get past them so ended up losing the race.

I'm beat right now.

What are you beat from?

I was racing my friend Riley and just couldn't catch up.

What a bummer.  Is she really athletic?

Yes, I couldn't get past her and lost the race.

Too bad, but maybe next time.


I lost a race to Riley today

What happened? You're pretty fast.

We were racing down city streets. And I couldn't get around him because people were walking in the other lane.

Where you in the street, or on the sidewalk?

On the sidewalk. And I was right behind him.

Yeah pedestrian traffic is pretty heavy in your neighbourhood.


Context: Tracy wanted to hear me but that wasn't possible because I was on the other side of the glass door.

Dan was saying something to me but the train door closed. Even though it was glass I couldn't hear what he was saying.

Did you call and find out what he was saying?

I did not. When I called him his phone rang in my purse.

Maybe he was trying to tell you that you had his phone.

These phones all look the same to me. I must have grabbed his thinking it was mine.

Better get a case so you can tell them apart.


I can't hear anything, can you speak louder.

I am speaking as loud as I can.

Okay, come over to my side then.

Okay one second, let me pick up my stuff first.

Thanks, okay this is better.

I am glad you can hear me now.


I can't hear you!

What? I don't understand.

You're on the other side of the glass door. I can't hear you when you talk!

I can't hear you either.

This is so frustrating, what can we do to hear each other better?

Maybe we should open the door.


I was trying to have a conversation today but couldn't hear anything.

How come you couldn't hear?

I was on the other side of a glass door

Could you not just open the door?

No. I tried but it was locked .

That is frustrating.


Context: Robin was bored at the house. Sasha took Robin to the store.

Robin looked so bored today at the house.

There isn't much to do.

I didn't want her to feel like she was wasting her time so I took her out.

That's nice, where did you go?

We just went to the store to get some food.

That's better than being bored at home.


My roommate Robin was bored, so I took her to the store to do some retail therapy. That was about it for this weekend!

That's good, sounds like a good weekend! Did you buy things that you wanted or needed?

It was mostly Robin that did the shopping. I get paid bi-weekly so I am broke until next weekend. How was your weekend?

Not bad, rather uneventful. Did some yard work and watched Netflix!

Nice!


Robin and I had been sitting in the house for days, we needed to get out.

Oh where did you end up going?

I went to the store and took Robin with me.

That's nice, what did you buy?

I got some eggs and the ingredients to make a chocolate cake.

Oh can I have some cake when it is done?


Context: Skylar kept Quinn from becoming the best. Skylar was always jealous of them.

I could have been a real contender if I wasn't always dealing with Skylar.

What's happening with you and Skylar?

She is just always holding me back.

I wonder if she is jealous of you.

I think I need to choose between Skylar and my success.

That's not an easy decision to make, make sure you take time to consider everything.


Skylar doesn't always support me. I feel like she's jealous of me.

She might be.  Did you talk to her about that?

Not yet.  She just keeps me from becoming the best that I can be.  Sometimes I just want some encouragement.

Friends should encourage and support each other.

I just don't think she has my best interest in mind sometimes.

Maybe you should reconsider being friends with her.


Context: Others felt that Addison was doing poor work. Addison improved morale in patients.

I've been struggling with work lately. My co-workers think I'm doing a poor job.

What are you going to do to fix things?

I've already started by improving the morale in the patients. A co-worker even complimented me about it today!

Good job! There's always a solution, it's just a matter of figuring out what the solution is.


Other nurses have doubted my work but I showed them I am a hard worker

No one works as hard as you around here and you have such a great personality

I try to have new jokes everyday to improve patient's moods

I think you have a new joke every time I see you


Context: It was easy to believe that Kendall had been robbed, because Kendall's story fell within the scope of reason.

I feel so lucky to just be alive. You have no idea what I just went through at work tonight.

What happened?

The store got robbed!

Was it just you in the store at the time?

I was totally alone, it was so scary.

I'm so sorry to hear that that happened to you, I hope you're okay now!


I was robbed on the way back from the restaurant.

When did this happen?

Last night after I had dinner with my friends.  They offered to take me home but I wanted to walk.

It's not like you live in a scary neighbourhood.

I have always felt safe here.  A teenager pulled a knife out and demanded that I give him my purse.

That's horrible, I hope you're okay.


Context: Feeling broke and impoverished, Remy took Skylar's money from her.

Skylar is mad at me.  I took her money because I was broke.

You mean you stole her money.

I was desperate, I am broke.

You know what you did was wrong.  You need to give her back the money.

It's gone. I spent it all already.

You need to apologise and own up.


Context: Austin was considered an underdog by their colleagues, but Austin met the client's needs.

My colleagues think I am underdog, but I always come through and meet the needs of the clients.

As long as the clients are happy, you are good.

They can be difficult to please sometimes, but most clients are easy to deal with.

That's how it goes.  It's like that at my work too.

I heard that you got promoted. Congrats.

Thanks. I've worked hard at this job.


Check it out.

What?

All my colleagues think I'm an underdog, but my clients are all satisfied.

Keep up the hard work and I am sure they will start recognising your skills.


Context: Joe lost a bag with lots of money in it. Aubrey found his bag under the tree but instead of telling him, they kept it.

I found that bag of money that Joe was looking for.

Did you give it back to him?

No, it has a thousand dollars in it. I went and bought some new sunglasses.

He should have paid attention to where he put it and you would not have found it.


I just stole a big bag of money from Joe.

Wow, how much money?

I don't know, but I can pay rent this month!

Does Joe know about this?

No, he's still looking for it!

If you don't give me some, I'm telling!


Context: Skylar loved Bailey in return. Skylar gave Bailey a present because of this.

I really love the present Skylar gave me.

It's great that you like it. Skylar really must love you!

I love her too!

I'm really happy you two have found each other.

May this be beginning of a great relationship!

I am sure it will be!


I appreciate Skylar so much for getting me this beautiful bracelet

She really cares for you

I should do something nice for her in return>

Theirs a new restaurant on the other side of town, you could book a table for the two of you.

That's a great idea!


Context: Bailey wanted to vie for student council so he had to have the right number of people to vote them.

I'm walking around the school today trying to enlist students to vote for me for the student council.

Do you think you have a chance? The people you're running against are pretty popular.

I think of it as a grass roots campaign. I've got a lot of buzz around campus and I'm doing more legwork than my competitors.

Either way, I'll be sure to vote for you!


Context: Remy called the student into the office after the student had been caught cheating on an exam.

I had to call a student into my office today.

How come?

He was cheating on an exam.

What did you do?

I gave him a strong lecture, called his parents, and suspended him for three days.

You're tough.


Sometimes I hate my job. I had to suspend a student today for cheating on a test.

That's too bad. What did the kid say about it.

He never said a word. I called him into my office and gave him a chance to defend himself, but he said nothing.

He probably figured it wouldn't matter. He was caught and he was going to get punished for it.

But, it does matter. Cheating is always wrong but sometimes there are extenuating circumstances that move kids to do it.


I had to call a student into my office.

Why? Was there a problem?

Yes. The student cheated on an exam.

Are you sure the student really cheated?

Yes. The teacher caught the student cheating.

Wow! That's too bad. I don't know why students think they need to cheat.


Context: They had a eating competition and the winner ate so many chicken wings that he had to go to the hospital.

I am almost glad I didn't win that eating competition.

I thought chicken wings were your favourite?

That's true but the person who won ate so many that he had to go to the hospital!

That's awful, do you know if he is okay?

I think so, he is coming back tomorrow to collect his prize.

Good thing you didn't eat that many.


Context: Sydney wanted to clean their glasses. Sydney took their glasses off.

My glasses are so dirty.

You should clean them.

I need to take them off.

I have sanitizing wipes. You can use these.

Thanks. Can I have one to clean my glasses?

Sure here you go.


Hold up a second, I can't see anything.

Well look at your glasses.

Exactly, I really want to clean them but I don't have a cloth.

Here, use this to clean them.

Thanks, I'll just take them off and clean them real quick.

No rush, take your time.


I can hardly see.

Well, your glasses are filthy.

I'm taking them off and cleaning them.

So, did that help?

I can see!

That was all it took.


I need to clean my glasses.

What's going on with them?

They are so foggy right now.

Get a cloth to wipe them clean.

Do you have one?

Sure take this one.


Context: Kendall wasn't sure if she was going to make the team. Skylar ensured Kendall's success with more practice.

I've been practicing everyday with Skylar to try to make the team.

I bet you'll make it. You have really improved.

I don't know about that. There are some awesome players on the team and I may not be up to snuff.

Just keep at it. Skylar is a great coach and she's been on the team since last year.

She's given me a lot of pointers, but I'm not as quick as she is.

That's frustrating, but you have a lot of other attributes that would make you an essential team member.


Context: Bailey failed her test the first time around, but their teacher Jan gave them another chance.

I've decided to give Bailey another chance on that test.

What, Bailey? I thought you said she was a lost cause.

Yes. But it's the lost causes that are worth fighting for, isn't it?

That's true Jan.


Bailey is such a brilliant student but she failed her test.

I think she got distracted before the test!

I guess so, but I am giving her another chance.

She should pass this time around.

I believe so.

Good


I reviewed Bailey's test, and she has many incorrect answers.

Apparently she studied very hard, but forgot some of the answers.

Do you think she memorized the important details?

She said she read the information.

I will allow Bailey to take the test again tomorrow, as long as she memorizes the details.

I'm sure she will work very hard to remember the details.


Context: Aubrey knew that Riley had betrayed her. She deliberately filled Riley's tank with pure oxygen instead of the usual nonlethal mixture.

I'm getting revenge on Riley for betraying me.

Don't plot anything too stupid or dangerous.

I'm just filling Riley's tank with pure oxygen instead of the normal nonlethal mixture I typically use.

Whoa, that's taking the revenge plan a step too far.

It was a joke, I would never do that.

Not funny, I've almost reported your actions to the police.


I just found out that Riley betrayed me.

What are you going to do to her?

I will fill her tank with pure oxygen instead of the usual safe formulation.

Won't that kill her?

Nah, I just want to scare her.

Maybe you should check first how dangerous your plan actually is.


Context: The two business men were led into the woods by the mob thugs and then Austin was forced to dig their own graves.

I'm home.

Did you get back from the police office?

Yeah, I was there for awhile.

So what happened exactly?

Some guys led me and my co-worker into the woods, robbed us, and then tried to get us to dig our own graves.

That is so scary! I'm glad you're safe now.


How do I even get myself into these positions?

you should have never gambled all that money away

I thought I could pay it back

yeah, and then the thugs came for the money, robbed you, and then tried to get you and your colleague to dig your own graves.

I guess I made a bad mistake


I was forced to dig my own grave by the mob thugs.  They led my friend and me into the woods.

They were going to kill you in the woods and bury you guys there.

I think that was the plan.  We fought our way out.

That's brave.

We hit them over the head with the shovels and ran as fast as we could.

There's no way they could have out run you guys.


Last night was the most scared I've ever been in my whole life!

I know! I can't believe you escaped those mobsters.

As we were digging our graves I just kept thinking that I don't want to be buried behind this crappy warehouse.

It was really smart of you to tell them you found a suitcase in the hole.

Yeah, I still remember the look on their faces when we pushed them in! That was priceless!

Hopefully we can get out of town before they found you out.


Context: bailey discussed this book in detail so that others might get interested and read it also.

Do you think this book is as interesting as I do?

I definitely like it and I actually bought the audio book to listen to as well as the hard copy.

I want people to read it because I think it pertains to all of the craziness going on in the world today.

Yeah even though it is fiction I think it has a lot of themes relevant to today's world.

I posted my thoughts about it on social media and some other people are interested in reading it as well.

It is a really good book and I would recommend it to anyone who asks.


This book I recently read is very interesting.

Really? Which book is it?

Game of Thrones.

Why is it interesting?

Great storylines, nicely written and character development is amazing.

I will definitely check it out when I get the chance.


You should really read this book its amazing.

The cover looks nice, what is it about.

I can't spoil the book, but I'm telling you, you should read it.

You're getting me interested.

Trust me you won't regret.

Alright you convinced me, I will read it.


Have you read the new book entitled “Lovely”?

No. But I plan to do so.

I did a detailed review so others will be encouraged to buy it.

It must be good then for you to entice others to read it.

It was well written and the plot was unique.

I can’t wait to get hold of one.


Context: Just as they were about to leave for their important job interview, Ash realized that they had lost their keys.

I was at the bus stop when I realized that I didn't have my house key.

Did you leave it in the house?

No, because I locked the door. I tried to look for them, but I had to rush to a job interview.

Did you find them?

No I ended up getting a call from my local coffee shop, a customer saw them on the table.

Well that's good at least!


Okay, I’m ready to go. I can’t believe how nervous I am.

It’s an important job interview! It’s normal to be nervous. I’m sure you’re going to do great.

I hope so. Do you have the keys?

I don’t, you took the car last.

I...don’t know where they are. This couldn’t be a worse time to lose the keys!

Oh no! Okay, let’s tear this place apart and find them quick!


Hey, I was wondering if you've seen my car keys.

Your keys? No, I sure haven't. You can't find them?

I've been looking all day. I was almost late to my job interview.

Oh no, how stressful! What did you do?

Called a cab. I didn't have any other option. Now I just need to find those keys.

I'll help you look. Do you have any idea where they could have gone?


I lost the keys and I need to get to that interview right now.

Have you looked in all obvious places ?

Yeah, I can't find them anywhere.

Well, you better just get an uber. I can come over your house as soon as I can if you are afraid to leave the door unlocked.

Thanks a lot.


Context: cameron was reviewing pictures of taylor and noticed a detail so he turned taylor's face upside down.

What is that?

What is what?

You see that mark on Taylor's face?

Is that why you turned the pictures upside down?


Context: Bailey had been feeling angry for a quite a while, one day she had enough and expressed her anger to the others.

I've been so mad at the pep squad at school I finally blew up at them.

Oh no.  How did they react.

I think they were just shocked.  I usually go along with anything but over the last couple of months they've disregarded every idea I've had.

Did they agree to listen to you moving forward?

They said they would, but we'll see.  I might just find another group to join.


If felt great to just express my anger to everybody.

I was surprised you were so angry.

I couldn't help it. I've been angry for a while and finally just had enough.

It's healthy to express yourself, but I think it's better if you do it more often than holding it in.

I think you're right. I'll just be more angry from now on.

That's not really what I meant.


I'm really tired of doing all the work for the project while you guys just joke around.

I'm sorry you feel that way, Bailey. We were just letting off some steam.

I'm just sick of writing everything and you guys don't seem to care.

How about if I take over the writing for a while?

That would make me feel better, especially if we divide up the other tasks.

Okay. Let's divide up the project so we all have responsibility.


I have been feeling pretty frustrated lately and I let my anger out on everyone

you should have said something so your friends could calm you down

I feel sorry now sorry, I guess I have my father's temper and have a hard time controlling it

you might have to go to anger management classes if you keep it up


Context: Katie was going to the party with their husband. Jordan went as well.

Oh cool, there are so many people going to this party

yeah, it is going to be nice

I can't wait to see Katie and her husband

yeah, I hear they recently got engaged and married too

right, I am happy to see them

same as me !


I didn't planned to go to the party.

Yeah, you told me, but I later saw you. How come?

Katie was going to the party with her husband, so I followed them.

Oh, hope it was fun?

Not really.

You should have stayed.


It was a lot of fun going to go the party, Katie was also there with her husband

Yeah, I know you two have wanted to see each other at the party

Yeah, ever since we both have kids we've had less time for it

I think that's normal. I'm glad you were able to go to the party!

It ended up being a lot of fun too! We'll definitely try to do it more often

I think that sounds like a really great idea!


Context: Robin and their friends shop around a busy store. Robin takes all the items they want to the counter and waits in line.

I bought so much stuff from Walmart yesterday.

What did you all buy?

I was shopping with my friends and I suddenly realized my cart was getting too full.

Did you end up buying everything?

Yes, I took all my items to the counter and waited in line.

I know those lines can be very long, especially when you are in a busy store like Walmart.


Do you want anything from the store?

Are you there right now?

Yeah, it's really busy, I went with some friends.

Did you buy everything already?

No, I'm still on line at the counter with all the stuff we're going to buy.

Sounds like a successful shopping trip.

I was offered a better job.

did it offer a good salary?

Yeah, much better than the previous one.

How much more?

It was about two times as more.

College was worth it.


It was so great working with you guys. I'll miss you.

It's so great that you got such a great new job.

I would have stayed, but the amount they offered me is too much to turn down.

I totally get it. You're very lucky.

I'll always be thankful for the opportunity this company gave me.

We'll miss you.


I was offered the position.

Are you going to take the job?

I have already said yes, it fits with my field and it is four times the pay. I already quit my old job.

I am proud of you. All those years of school have paid off for you.

Potatoes, which is pretty weird because I don't even like potatoes!

How can you not like potatoes?!?

I don't know, I guess I'm just weird.

Well you can send them my way when they're ready!


Context: Addison took part in the struggle to make a great product. They put in extra hours.

I've been putting in a ton of overtime this week.

Why's that, Addison?

We need to open up a new product line, and I've been helping the R&D team come up with something truly unique this week.

What kind of product are you making?

A new social media app that helps people connect after years apart. It should appeal to many older millennials.

Yeah, that's a great idea! I can see why you've been working extra time on such an app.


Context: Cameron was a drug addict who had broken into their sister's home in order to fund their habit.

I really need to get some money.

What do you need the money for?

I need to buy drug.

Why don't you ask for help for this addiction? Like to your family?

They won't help me anymore. That's why I broke into my sister's house to find some money but couldn't.

Well, don't break into my house since I have no money either.


Context: Bailey happened to think every test that they took in school was really hard. So Bailey got a tutor and sought extra help from teachers as well to overcome their struggle.

I think this will be the year I turn my grades around

Yeah? I think I heard your mom say something about a tutor

not only that I'm even going after class to each teacher

what made you want to change

I was tired of being the kid who didn't care

well, if you need help with anything I can try


I was having a hard time at school so I decided to get a tutor to help me out

why didn't you just ask me?

I forgot you took that class last year

I aced all the tests and I think I still remember the work

you can help me out too if you want

it will be no problem for me


School is just tough for me.  Every test that I've taken is so hard.  I go to my teachers' office hours and hired a tutor to help me out.

Hope that helps.

I don't know why but school has always been hard.

Do you think you have a learning disability?

No one has ever diagnosed me with one.

See if the tutor can help you do better.


Context: As an experimenter Carson frequently ran tests on their friend Kendall, some of which could be quite uncomfortable.

Kendall is a pretty good sport when Cameron needs to run tests on him.

How often does he have to do that?

Pretty frequently. Some of the tests are pretty uncomfortable, so I'm glad he's not too sensitive about it.

I would feel bad hurting him like that.

It's not too bad. Just a little discomfort, and it all in the name of science!

His work will be really important, so it's surely worthwhile for both of them.


So sometimes Carson asks Kendall if he can run experiments on him, but to tell him if he doesn't feel okay about them.

I see, it's nice of him to help

Yes, sometimes they can be quite uncomfortable.

He is getting paid for this, right?

Yes, Carson usually gives him fifty dollars when they are done


Carson should lay off Kendall.

None of the tests he's doing are hurting Kendall.

I know, but they are making her uncomfortable.

He does experiments and she gets paid for her time. It's not like he's forcing her.

She needs the money and he does pay good. I am not happy with this, I feel like he's taking advantage of their friendship.

I know he would never hurt our friend. She's out of her comfort zone but it would unethical for him to hurt her.


Context: When Skylar learned that Jan was the one sleeping with their husband, they plotted to kill them when they returned home.

I just found out that Jan is the person who's been sleeping with my husband.

Are you kidding me? I can't believe it's Jan.

It is and she's going to pay. I'm going to hide in her house and kill her when she gets home.

Don't say that. And if you're serious...don't freaking tell me about it.

I am absolutely serious. I want revenge bad and I'm going to get it.


Can I borrow your car tonight?

What for?

Yesterday I found out that my husband is sleeping with our neighbor, Jan. So I've decided to kill my husband, and then Jan, and dump the bodies in the desert.

So you want to use my car to transport the bodies? I don't feel real good about that, Skylar.

You are not concerned about the murder, just your car?

I understand you're talking like this because you're hurt and upset now, but don't say that. These guys are not worth you destroying your life.


I know now Jan has been sleeping with my husband and really feel like I want to kill them both.

well, you definitely need to get both out of your life

I think we could kill Jan with sleeping pills by crushing them up in her food

Don't say that. Just get divorce and ask both a lot of money for compensation

sounds like a great plan to me


Context: Kai shined a flash like at their friends but turned it away because it got in their eyes.

I just got the torch I lent to a friend back.

The rays are brighter.

Maybe he charged it.

Oh, it was already bright. I saw when you shined it at your friends and they got half blinded.

Yeah, you're right, it's a great torch.

It is indeed.


I shined a flash light at my friends

why? I hope you didn't hurt their eyes

maybe a little but I turned it away because it got in their eyes

I thought as much since those flash lights are so bright


Context: When visiting Quinn's house, Carson saw Quinn's son for the first time.

The other day I visited Quinn's house.

His son must have grown up a lot, should be ten now.

Yeah, he sure has grown since I last saw him.

I bet he has, such a nice boy though!


I finally saw Quinn's son today.

Nice. Did you get along?

We didn't get to talk that much.

You should socialize with him more often.


Have you heard I've met Quinn's son?

That kid is so nice and polite, Carson.

Yeah, and he's so big for his age!

He is also a bit shy.

That is okay, he can take his time.

He will warm up to you once he gets to know you a bit better.


Context: Riley gave each of the boys their own set of cards to build a house of cards.

I built a house of cards today with the boys.

How big was it?

I gave all of the boys their own set of cards and we all pooled them in together, so the house we built was huge!

That's very cool, but the bigger the house, the quicker it falls.

Yeah, our house of cards collapsed after about ten minutes. Ha-ha!


The boys are having a blast, nothing to worry about.

You don't mind watching them all night?

No, they are building a house of cards with the decks that I gave them.

Will you send me a picture when they get done?

Sure, I will call you when I put them to bed too. Enjoy yourself.


I gave each boy their own set of cards.

What kind of card game requires that many cards?

We were all building houses of cards.

I see, an architectural card game.

I couldn't stop boys from blowing each others' houses down at first.

How high did the tallest house get?


Context: Quinn was a wrestler.  They put their foot down upon their opponent's neck.

That was one hell of a match and you are one hell of a tag team partner.

I think we should have not put our feet on his neck.

There are no rules when it comes to wrestling.

Don't you feel any guilt that he's in the ER now?

No guilt. We won the match. Right?

I don't want to be your partner anymore. That guy may never walk again and you don't care.

Indeed, my friend.


I'm on the road right now driving to Texas.

What are you going to Texas for?

I'm going to see a rodeo there, so I'm headed to Austin.

Texas is a long drive just to see a rodeo.

My brother will be competing in it and I want to be there to support him.

You are a really good sister.

I took my dog for a hike yesterday.

Where'd you go?

Well, I loaded the dog in the car and we drove to the canyon.

Lots of nice trails there.

Yes, we went on a gentle one and walked for about three miles.

You probably both slept well last night.


Context: Lee told Kendall to keep a secret, but he was not sure he could trust her.

Dang, that's a long time. What did you two talk about?

Everything! We talk about anything and everything. Work, politics, our love lives, our families...everything.

It's nice to have a friend like that. I love having people you can say anything to.


Tracy is so much fun to talk to

So are you, but I know you two talk about anything

I called Tracy yesterday, we talked for over an hour and only felt like five minutes

Is there anything else you want to talk about before I get back to work?

I'll let you get back to work, but call me when you're done so we can talk some more

Sure thing, I've got plenty more to say


Context: Tracy studied for the their test because this test determined whether or not she would graduate.

That is a challenge.

This test determines whether or not I graduate.

What are you doing? Go back to your room and study.


Sorry if I seem tired. I spend all day yesterday studying for the test I took today.

I was wondering why you look tired.

It was an important test that determined whether I graduate or not.

So did you pass the test?

I did. I'm going to reward myself.

You should reward yourself with some sleep.


I stayed up all night studying for this test.

You should have slept. Why did you study for so long?

If I don't pass this test, I won't graduate.

You should have been studying for the past couple of weeks.

I know. I was stupid and waited too long to study.

Well, that's a lesson learned.


I have been cramming for this test all night long.

Why are you waiting until the last minute to study?

I'm not.  I have been cramming because this test will go well or break me.

What do you mean?

This test determines whether or not I will fail.

Okay, I see why you are studying so much.


Context: The car has been making strange noises all week, so Addison checked Skylar's car.

It was nice of Addison to check my car, as I had no idea what that noise was

How long had it been making that sound

All week actually, at least since Monday

You should always check these issues, otherwise it will get worse until you replace it

This one was an easy enough fix, anything to get rid of that annoying noise

If you bring me the part I can install that for you the next time


The noise coming from my car was scary.

Maybe you should take it in today.

I was actually broke but Addison look at it for me.

Nice of him to check that for you.

I hope it's fixed now.

Yeah, check it out properly soon though.


My car has been making strange noises all week.

Did you get it checked?

Addison checked the car.

What was wrong with it?


The car has been making thumping noises. It's scary.

Let me check your car. May be something simple.

I shouldn't worry about it, Addison also checked it for me yesterday.

I see the problem. It's wear on your tires on the driver's side.

Can you fix it?

It's easy. We will change both of these tires and you'll be ready to go.


Context: Lee went to see Addison about a plan to make a lot of money in a short amount of time.

I need more money.

So does everyone it seems.

I went to see Addison about making money.

What did he suggest?

He has a plan to plan to make a lot of money in a short amount of time.

What is suggesting, robbing a bank?


I am having trouble with my current job.

What is the problem?

I am making very little money right now and I want a house. So I want to be able to make a lot of money fast.

Okay, do you have a plan?

I went to see Addison to get some suggestions

Okay let us go to Wynn later tonight.


So I need a plan to make a lot of money as I want to buy a new house.

Normally you need to work hard for that.

This is the one time that it’s not working like that.

What are you planning?

I met with Addison yesterday, it’s time for us to make our next move.

You just let me know and I’ll roll with you guys.


I just visited Addison for some scheme.

It sounds delicious drinks. I will visit your stand.


Context: Cameron found a way home by asking a friend for a ride when he was stranded.

What happened to you?

My car broke down on a dirt road and I was stranded.

That must have been scary.

It was. But fortunately I had a friend who lived near the area and gave me a ride home.

I hope you treat him out for dinner or something.


I can't believe that my car broke down.

Well, how did you get home?

I had to call a friend to get a ride.

It's good you had your phone on you.

Yeah, I wouldn't have wanted to stay stranded.

You are right, that wouldn't have been fun.


Context: Quinn watched it for a long time and ultimately felt it was the best movie ever.

Sorry I couldn't talk when you called last night but I was in the middle of the movie and I really wanted to see the rest.

Jazmine said it was good, but she also said it's over three hours.

I know it sounds like a really long time, but the story is so good that you don't even know how long you have been watching.

So you think it was worth spending all of that time on it.

Definitely, I think it's the best movie I ever watched!

I guess I will have to give it a try too.


Wow, what a hell of a twist. I didn't expect him to be the queen's missing son.

Where did you get that idea? He's was the queen's slave.

But read between the lines. No slaves was spared after their rebellion failed.

Anyway, 3 hours is quite a long time for a movie, but it was worth it. Best movie ever!

I agree.

I feel like I want to watch it again.


So I got a confession.

What it is?

After watching and re-watching this movie  for hours I gotta say this is the best movie ever.

That's a big claim.


I watched that movie for a long time then decided it was the best movie ever.

What movie are you talking about?

It's the one with Sharon Stone in it.

She was in a bunch of movies.

It's one she was in when she was younger with Michael Douglas.

You mean Basic Instinct?

How'd it go?

Well, after I'd come across about 1000 beautiful actresses, I figured it was more likely I'd be the next Hollywood starving waitress.

I'm afraid you were right.


Context: As it is the norm, Lee rode the bus to school.

I had to ride the bus to school again.

Why won't your mom let you walk, it is only 2 blocks away!

She thinks that I will be kidnapped and killed, She is crazy!

Well the bus stop is well lit, and the road is dark in the morning. I guess she is right.


I hate riding that bus every morning.

Why, what's wrong with it?

It's always so loud and crowded. And it smells bad.

That sounds like a bad way to start the day.

It is. You're so lucky you live close enough to walk to school.

You're right. I never have to deal with the bus at all.

Now I have to tell him.

He was probably just trying to be romantic.

I love the house I bought!

How did you get the good price?

Yep!  He had me sign the papers right away!

He didn't even do a background check?


We got a good bid price on a really nice house.

How did you guys end up doing that?

Yeah, but I don't remember the professor asking the question at all.

That's incredible.

That's great.  Can I go with you?

Sure, maybe you can help me make a decision.

I'm so excited for you.  Why did you decide now is the right time?

Well, with working from home because of the virus, I feel like I have time to get a dog settled in before I have to go back to the office.

I can't wait to find the perfect puppy pal for you!


Guess what? I'm going to get a dog!

That's so fun! Are you going to buy a puppy from a pet store?

No, I don't think so. I don't really want to support puppy mills.

I agree. Puppy mills should be outlawed.

I'm going to look at the local animal shelter instead.

I can't wait to meet your new dog and join you on a walk at the park!


I've wanted a dog for awhile now and decided to check out the animal shelter in town.

You still don't  have a dog why didn't you get one?

I did I just can't bring her home yet.

What is she sick or something? Why would you want to adopt a sick dog?

No, its nothing like that I have to wait until she gets spayed then I pick her up from the vet.

That isn't going to make for a very good first few days.

I have to live with him everyday.  He's my bothersome brother.

Maybe he's just bored and wants to play.


We had an epic wrestling match  last night.

Who are you wrestling?

I was wrestling Taylor.

That definitely sounds like a great match.

It was one for the ages.

I’m so mad I missed it, I hope you guys fight  again.

That's too bad because their dresses are always adorable.

I said no to a proposition that involved committing and kind of crime?

If it involves anything that can get me arrested, I am not interested.

What if it involves a crime, but the pay out could change your life?

The answer is no, I can't take advantage of the pay out of I am in jail.

Yeah, you're wise.


I'm really proud of myself.

Why? What did you do?

I was called this morning and offered a position on a new team. They are looking to rob the bank on 1st Street.

Skylar, I appreciate that you trust me with that information and I am proud of you too for overcoming something so bad. But you know I'm a cop, right?

You are a mall security guard.

Doesn't she have her own board?

Yes! But she likes mine better I guess. Probably just because it's mine.

Well you've been looking to buy that one at the shop. Maybe you should just buy it and give Quinn your old one.


I wanted to go skating yesterday but couldn't find my board.

Oh no, you lost it?

Well, I went to the skate park and my stupid sister Quinn had it.

She took it without even asking?

Yeah, I was so mad.  I need to put a lock on my bedroom door.

Not a bad idea, man.


Context: After the teacher gave the final date, Robin raised their hand in protest.

I thought it was enough time for us to read all the books before the final date.  They teacher had just told us the date, so I raised my hand in protest.

Did the teacher change the date?

The final date cannot be changed.  It's already on the last day of school.

What's going to happen?

My teacher agreed that the workload for the class was too much and we probably have time to get to the last book.  He removed a book from our reading list.

Cool.  One less book to read.


It just doesn't make sense that we have two weeks to complete a 4 week project! The teacher wasn't being fair!

Did you say something or ask for more time?

Of course, as soon as he said the final date due, my hand was up in the air!

What was his response?

No, we have no room. I've already taken him to the animal shelter.

I suppose that's best. It will keep him off the streets.


I'm glad we found the stray dog, but I feel bad about having to put him in a shelter.

Don't worry. They'll find a home for him.

I'm afraid that they won't be able to keep him too long.

No. That shelter does not put dogs to sleep. Don't worry.

Oh. Thank God. I'm not allowed another dog, or I would have kept him myself.

I know. And who knows? Maybe they'll be able to find his owner.

Yes, I put her at the head of the class right a way. She's easily the best student.

She's going to go far in life, that's for sure.


I really love math class.

I know you do Bailey, and you're great at it!

Yeah, but Taylor is the best.

I've heard that, and also that you nominated her I am going to be the head of the math class after you.

Yeah it's time to recognise she is better, she was so happy aboutit.


Context: Aubrey had lost 200 dollars after drinking at Addison's. She looked the next day and found it with Addison's help.

Oh my gosh, I found the 2000 dollars thanks to Addison's help!

You did?  Where?

By the couch.

See, I knew it would turn up.

I was so worried that I had lost it.  That would have been terrible.

Yes, it would.  Well, glad you found it!


I was so worried thinking I lost 200 dollars last night.

I know Addison helped you look.

Yeah, although it was my fault. I had a lot to drink. I should have been more responsible.

Did you find the wallet in the end?

Yes, I found it the day after. Oh boy! What a relief!

Glad to hear you found it.


I can't believe I lost 200 dollars at Addisons

oh wow were you able to find it?

eventually we did the next day, Addison helped me

that is great, why were you at her house?

we were drinking together

oh well at least you both had fun


I thought I lost 200 dollars at Addison's yesterday.  I was there drinking.  I went back to his place to look for it. Addison found the money.

I love it when people find things.  I misplace or lose my stuff all the time.

Especially with my forgetfulness, life can be difficult.  I had the money in my pocket.  The bills must have fallen out.

Maybe you should put them in a wallet.

My wallet got stolen on a train ride.  I haven't bought another one yet.  That's a good idea.

If it's bulky enough, it's easier to find. My wallet is gigantic.


Context: Casey and Jan performed their duty as well as they could because it was the right thing.

I was really proud of Jan today at work for doing the right thing.

What did she do?

She helped me confront the trespassers at work.

Well, you guys are the security at work.

Yeah, but still. It can be a scary thing to do sometimes.

I'm just glad you guys are both okay.


Context: Sydney had so much pent up emotion, they burst into tears at work.

I made fun of myself at work. I burst into tears like a baby!

What happened? What was bothering you?

It was just all the pent up emotion about losing my cat.

I understand. That cat was part of your family, it's normal!

Yeah. I actually had to go home early. I'm hoping my boss understands.

I'm sure he will. Everyone gets upset when they lose a pet.


I had a bad day at work yesterday.

What happened?

I cried at work.

Why?

I've just had so much stress lately and pent up emotion from my divorce that I just burst into tears.

Well, I hope you're feeling better now.


I cant hold it in anymore.

What's wrong?

I gotta cry, I know we're in the office but I have so many things happening recently.

It's ok, I'm here if you want to talk.


Hi, how are you today? My day was awful. I finally started crying like a baby and couldn't stop for a long time.

Yeah, I know the feeling, we nurses can only take so much before it begins to break us down.

After the fifth patient today died while on a ventilator, I just had to let it out somehow.

Plus we are putting our lives on the line every time we do a shift.

Well, I finally pulled myself together and soldiered on.

I'll be so relieved when vaccinations for this coronavirus are finally available. I know you will be, too.


Context: Jordan had to walk home, but it was cold, so he walked home fast.

I hate the winter, it's too cold.

That's why we have houses and cars.

My car was in the shop and I had to walk home yesterday.

How far did you walk?

It was only a mile, but I walked fast to stay warm.

Next time you can call me and I'll give you a ride if it's too cold to walk.


I'm going to walk home.

Man it is way too cold for that.

Yea I will run right now to keep myself warm!

Okay, sounds good.

You gotta be kidding me.

I'll race you!


it was freezing outside

you walked home today? there's a blizzard coming!

I walked fast to keep my body temp up

Yeah there's going to be a cold spell every day

I'll take the car tomorrow

you definitely need to


It was so cold out that I was walking home super fast.

I mean it is negative ten degrees outside.

I felt like I would be frozen in place if I slowed down.

Were you wearing warm clothes?

Yes but I could still feel it through my ski jacket.

Cold weather like this is just unnatural.


Context: Quinn had gotten in a fight with their friend and then Quinn rubbed salt in the wound.

I think I just made things worse with my other friend.

You do tend to be your own worst enemy sometimes. What happened?

I got into a fight with him and then I made it worse by talking about him behind his back. I basically rubbed salt into the wound that is our fractured relationship.

You two haven't been getting along for years. You should probably stop being friendly with each other and go your separate ways.


I got a bad fight with a friend but I got some good punches in there.

Quince, my boy, you should not mess with him if you're friends.

I may go back for more. I don't like the guy. Come with me!

Quince! The man is built like a tank. Leave him alone. He didn't mean to pop you in the eye.

Maybe you're right but I can't stand the guy! I will tell him he's ugly just to rub some salt in the wound.

You know he is a good guy, a pacifist, body builder, practices Buddhism, helps the poor, gave up all vices and dedicated his life to the less fortunate. Don't be horrible only because of a fight.


Context: Bailey embarrassed their girlfriend infront of all her friends by making a joke about her dress.

My girlfriend is still pissed at me.

You embarrassed her if front of all of us, by making fun of her dress.

I was just trying to liven up the party.

You did that! Rule number one, don't piss out the girlfriend in front of her friends.

You should have given me that rule, before the party!

She will come around, send her some flowers and chocolate.


My girlfriend made me sleep on the couch last night because I embarrassed her in front of her friends.

Why would you do something like that?

She was wearing this goofy dress and I accidentally made fun of it in front of everybody.

Never make fun of your girlfriend's outfit in public, Bailey. That's the number one rule of a healthy relationship.

I always learn the hard way.


My girlfriend is totally mad at me because I joked about her dress looking like a bee.

That wasn't nice of you.

It was yellow and black . I could not help myself. Everyone was laughing.

You just made fun of your girlfriend. She is going to be really angry at you for a while.

I guess that was a bad idea.


Context: Even though they were very nervous for the first day of high school, by the end of the day Casey had a new friend.

I made a new friend at school today.

What is this new friend's name?

Mark. I was nervous I couldn't make new friends.

Was Mark also nervous like you?

No, Mark is confident and talks to everyone.

Do you wish you could be more like Mark?


This might get interesting.

How was your first day of school?

I was really nervous but made a new friend at the end of the day.

That's cool I'm happy for you.


I really, really loved school today. For the first day...it was fantastic.

Was it different being in high school?

It was like night and day. I made a new friend already, too.

That nice. I'm glad you liked going.

I can't wait until tomorrow.


I had my first day of high school today.

How did it go?

I was super nervous but I made a new friend already.

That's great. How did you meet?

Her locker is next to mine and we had class together too.

Oh I hope you keep the friendship going. That's wonderful you share class.


Context: Skylar walked Sasha's dog because Sasha was out of town and he didn't want the dog to be sad.

I have been walking Sasha's dog.

Oh, is she out of town?

Yeah and I was concerned about the dog being sad.

That is very considerate of you.

Thanks! I have always loved animals.

I am sure the dog and Sasha really appreciate it!


I took Sasha's dog out today for a walk.

Where's Sasha?

She's out of town for the day and asked me to check in on it and I took it for a walk.

You are a good neighbor!

I love animals and the dog is sweet. I didn't want it to be sad.

Yes, dogs miss  their owners. That was really kind of you.


I have been walking Sasha's dog since she's been out of town. I don't want her to be lonely.

That is really nice of you. I bet she's happy to see you everyday.

Yeah she comes to the door and wags her tail like I'm the greatest treat in the world.

Dogs are so sweet. They love so easily.


I am walking Skylar's dog tonight at 9 and then I'll be over.

Why are you walking Skylar's dog? Where is Skylar?

Skylar is out of town for a few days and since the dog is familiar with me, it made sense for me to do it.

OK. Well I'll have all the food ready when you get here. Be safe walking that dog in the dark.

I will see you soon.

Ok. Don't forget to be safe.


Man this dog is evil.

What are you doing Skylar?

Walking Sasha's dog. But she's so friendly and hard to control.

Why don't you give her a treat? Or take her home?

I can't take her home. I don't want her to be there alone, lonely without Sasha. Maybe I'll give her a treat.

That will probably work.


Context: Cameron couldn't afford a haircut. Sasha cut Cameron's hair herself and it looked great.

I cut Cameron's hair.

I saw it; it looks good.

Yes, he couldn't afford to go to a shop.

Would you cut my hair?

Are you broke too?

No, I just like the job you did.


Money is so tight theses days with us both being unemployed

The economy is rough, not a lot of work these days.

Cameron got an interview and needed a hair cut and we didn't have enough money for it so I cut it myself.

How'd it look?  Were you guys scared you would mess it up?

It looked pretty good actually, I watched a couple of youtube videos and grabbed my scissors and clippers and got to it.

Glad it worked out well, I hope Cameron gets the job.


I just got back from Cameron's house.

How is he doing by the way haven't seen him in a while.

He's doing well he asked me to come over to give him a hair cut.

That was nice of you, how did it turn out?

I think I did a good job looks like he was pleased.  I know he's been short on money so I volunteered to help him.

That was sweet of you! Do you have a picture of how it turned out?


Context: Lee held hands during the pleasure moment and moans cravingly while her partner continued to move.

I was making love to my boyfriend the other night and it was really sensual.

Oh that is a bit more info than I needed to know.

We were holding hands and moaning as we moved. It was very special.

I am glad it was special for you, but please stop telling me about your sex life.

Ok, but I was just telling you so you know how wonderful our love life is.

That is nice, but again don't tell me anymore.


I had such a good time last night

Did you hold your partner's hand while you stayed there together so it lasts longer?

Yeah, but I couldn't keep my moans down while he moved.

Okay, now it's probably too much information!


I really enjoyed my most recent moment of pleasure!

You tend to enjoy it with someone you love

Yes! I held hands with my partner and moaned so he knows how I feel!

with the way you describe it, your partner is a pro

He truly tries his best to understand what I need or want!


Context: After working all day to make the house look presentable to her in-laws, Sydney finally sat down.

Oh my goodness, I am tired.

That is too bad Sydney. What were you doing?

I have been cleaning the house all day because my in-laws are coming over.

Well, I'm glad you are done. That is sure stressful.

It sure is. This is the first time I am sitting down all day.

I am glad you are finally resting.


Context: Ash noticed he had a rash, so he put aloe on his skin.

Thanks for recommending aloe vera for my rash.

Is it helping you?

It has helped me not to scratch so much and my skin seems to be getting better.

My mom always has us use it when we have a rash.

I wish that I asked you about it sooner because I am tired of people asking me what's wrong with my arms.

I wondered why you had long sleeves on today.


Context: Kai works for his local chinese takeaway as a delivery driver and as they were working tonight, they drove to an address to deliver the food then Kai rung the doorbell.

It's the house here.

I'll bring up the food, Kai.

it doesn't look like anyone is home.

I've rung the doorbell, but no one is getting the door. I guess we will have to leave our Chinese takeaway food here.

I'm going to write a note.

Good idea.


Context: Casey cared for Kai's children. Casey didn't mind doing so for Kai since she was a friend.

Kai said she wanted to ask me something earlier, did she tell you what she needs?

Yeah she said that she was asked to work an extra day on Saturday but she doesn't have day-care, and if there is any way you could watch her children for a couple of hours?

Of course! That's what friends are for!

Thank you so much, I'm sure Casey is very happy to have a friend like you.

I am happy to help!

And Kai's kid is such a sweetheart! I also babysit her sometimes.


I love babysitting for Kai when she's away on business.  She's such a great mum .

I know!  And her kids are just such a joy.  They are the most well-behaved kids I've ever met.

And Kai pays me really well, too.  When I keep her kids for three days she pays me five hundred dollars, and twelve hundred when I keep them for a week.

Does Kai provide stuff like the kids favorite foods, and gas for the car, and things like that?

Yeah, she provides everything.  But honestly I would do it for free because Kai has been my best friend since we were in high school.

My mom always told me, If you're good at something, never do it for free.  So don't feel bad about taking what Kai pays you!


Do you know I'm going to Kai's place this weekend?

I think you mentioned going there to watch over Kai's kids this week.

Yeah, I love her kids and it's not a big deal for me.

I think it'll be great to catch up without the kids next time and invite Kai as well.

Okay, yeah maybe next weekend we can go see a show.

I'm going to tell Kai to get a babysitter and we can go check out a show then.


Context: Jesse was hungry for cookies, so they decided to bake the cookies.

I wanted to bake the best cookies and I wanted to make them my way

I totally understand that

So I even added some chocolate chips in there to make everything taste even better

That is so awesome.  You definitely did your best to have delicious cookies

Thanks.  I really do my best to try

I can tell


My kitchen is a total mess right now.

Wow, there's so much flour everywhere.

I know, I'm in the process of baking chocolate chip cookies.

Are you having a bake sale tomorrow or something?

No, I was just hungry for cookies and had the ingredients on hand to bake them.

I want to try one when they come out of the oven.


What are we having to snack on while we watch the movie?

I have cookie dough we can bake or popcorn, which do you prefer?

Let's bake the cookies, I've been hankering a cookie all week

Perfect, turn the oven on and I will get the bowl

Did you make this dough, it is perfect!

Of course I did, I don't play when it comes to my cookies, you know that!


Context: Jan went to see the doctor about a worrying lump they had found and Addision awaited Jan's return.

I'm so worried about Jan.

Why, what's wrong?

He just went to the doctor today to examine a lump on his neck.

Oh, wow, do you think it's serious?

Honestly I have no idea. I fear the worst. His dad died of cancer.

Oh wow. Well, I hope it's nothing serious!


I am waiting for Jan to come back from the doctor, she went to have a lump checked. I really hope that it is benign.

Are you sure? Many women Jan's age are diagnosed with cancer.

It does not cause her pain, so that is a huge plus in my eyes.

I think that is Jan coming down the street, I'll leave you two alone but let me know how it went later.

I will call you soon.

Thank you, and fingers crossed.


I just drive Jan  to the doctor's and I'm waiting now.

You're a great friend. I hope she is okay.

Hopefully, it's nothing. She has a new lump, it's not the first time but her lumps usually just go away.

But I heard Jan saying that this one is solid and really hand, and she can't turn her neck.

Yeah, that's why she is going to the doctor this time, we're a bit worried.

I would also worry, Fingers crossed it's nothing.


I should have gone with Jen to see what's up with that lump, it feels so weird.

No Addison, she asked you not to go.

She shouldn't have to face this alone. They will probably just do a bunch of tests, but I want to be there with her when she gets the results.

I see why you do, that's the scary part.

I hope it was the best thing to do to just wait.

It probably is, as it is actually easier to talk to a doctor without a worried love there.


Context: Taylor scrambled to leave the house but realized she lost her car keys at her grandmother's house.

I’m running so late! I can’t even remember if I grabbed everything. What am I forgetting?

Slow down, Taylor. Let’s think. You’ve got your phone, jacket, bag...what else?

My water bottle. Okay, got that. Wait, where are my keys? Oh no...

What’s wrong?

My car keys! I forgot them at my grandma’s house!

Do you have any back-up keys? We’ve got to go!


I was in such a big rush to leave the house and couldn't find my keys.  Then I realized I had left that at my grandmother's house.

How far away does she live?

Over an hour away!  I had to take a taxi to work.

Have you gotten your keys back yet?

No, my mom is going to drive me back to my grandmother's tomorrow.

So one more day without a car!  Let me know if there's anywhere you need me to take you.


I have just had the worst day ever

Oh no what happened?

I was late to work and left the house, but forgot I left my car keys at my grandma's house

I'm so sorry to hear that. Did everything end up being okay?

Yeah I was only 10 minutes late to work

Okay, I'm glad it wasn't too bad!


Context: Jesse and Robin's gang were at war and alot of lives were lost but Robin finally surrendered so Jesse spared Robin's life.

Mine and Jesse's gangs were at war and a lot of lives have been lost already.  This needs to stop.

How are you going to stop it?

It's just senseless violence.  I surrendered so that Jesse can spare my life.

Someone needs to give in.

That's right.  So many strong egos involved and it all leads to bloodshed.

Have you thought about getting out of the gang?


I'm officially out of gang life. I gave up...I'm tired of fighting with my gang against Jesse's.

I am so relieved to hear you say that, Robin.

Yeah, my gang has been up against Jesse's gang for years. We lost a lot of members.

All for nothing, really.

Yes, just pride. I surrendered and so far, I'm still alive.


We were at war with Jesse's gang!

I learnt about it but not too much!

A lot of lives were lost during the war.

Ohhh! so what was the outcome?

I finally surrendered and Jesse spared my life

Ohhh! I'm glad you're out of that and safe!


Context: Riley explained everything in training in great detail. Riley gets Jesse started with an easy task.

Riley explained almost everything to me and gave me an easy task to start with.

That's good Jesse, to start with this easy task.

I think I can do that.

Then you will have to just slowly progress into the harder ones, but not too quickly!

Okay, I got it.


Context: Cameron was very nervous about things, but Tracy made the Cameron evaluation better.

Cameron felt nervous, so I helped him think about things differently so he could feel better.

What was he nervous about?

He was trying out for the football team.  He wasn't sure if he would make it.

Did he make the team?

He'll be on it for next year.

So excited to watch him play.


I told Cameron there's no reason to be nervous.

But you know he doesn't like evaluations.

None of us do but he was so nervous that he was shaking.

He told me he felt like he can't do anything right in this job and he's worried about not doing good in anything.

Cameron really needs more confidence and his evaluation is fine.

I think he was worried about losing his job because he feels criticized sometimes.


Context: Lee told Ash to follow the trail from the house towards the cabin in the woods.

I hosted Ash at my cabin in the woods over the weekend.

Isn't your cabin really tricky to find?

No, not really since they built a trail to it directly from my house.

Well, a trail certainly makes it easier to locate.

Yes, I just told Ash to follow the trail.

I'm glad the two of you were able to enjoy a quiet, secluded weekend.


I told Ash to follow the trail from my house to the cabin that is in the woods.

Is it a completely straight path?

Yes, it is completely straight.

So there are no turns that Ash will have to take?

Absolutely not.


I wonder if Ash got to the cabin safely. I gave her directions?

You let her go into the woods by herself.

I was at work. I told her I'd go with afterwards but she didn't want to wait.

What direction was she going?

I told her to just follow the trail to the cabin.


Context: Kendall is Jordan's teacher. Jordan failed Kendall's test because he didn't study.

I have a student who failed his mid-term terribly.

How come they failed the test?

Well her name is Jordan and she sometimes gets lazy. I know she didn't study.

Are you going to let her take a make-up exam?

I want to but it's against school policy.

Well I guess she will get the grade that she deserves now, won't she?


Jordan failed his History test because he didn't study.  That's unlike him.  He's a good student.

He probably got busy with other things.

He's been looking distracted in class lately.

I'll ask if he's doing alright.  He's in my English class.  I have noticed him dozing off a couple of times.

He'll be in office hour this week.  I'll talk to him too.

I think he might have a lot going on.


I don't think Jordan is working much recently, he failed his test too!

He told me he's been too boggled down with family problems.

This is why he failed the test, but he didn't study as well

I think he had a lot to do and his family issues are piling up

We should talk about that

I already suggested Jordan to seek a counselor


I feel so sorry that Jordan failed his exam yesterday.

I saw him just playing around right before taking the test.

He must not have studied his lessons.

I guess so.

There was nothing I could do for him.

That will teach him a lesson.


Context: Remy returned the dog to the shop because it was not the breed Remy was expecting.

So I had to bring the dog back to the shop today.

What happened?

It wasn't the breed I was expecting. It looked just like the dog I wanted, but it's a completely different species!

Wow, somebody at the pet store should have told you that before you bought it and took it home.

I know. I had to look it up on the internet!


I ended up taking the dog back to the store because it wasn't actually pure bred.

What type of dog were you looking for?

I wanted a full blooded German shepherd puppy but I got a test and it is only 35%.

Wow, so you paid full price and that dog is probably only worth half that much if not less?

Yeah, I was super upset about it, but I just got my money back.

I would write a really negative review about that store so other people know they like ripping customers off.


Context: Jesse, a patient at the hospital, repeatedly called the nurse into their room for every little request they had.

I think the nurse is annoyed at me because I keep calling her in here.

That is what they are here for.

Yeah but some of the things were very trivial and they have other patients too.

I can help you with things here if you don’t want to bother them.

Could you go get me another bottle of water?

Sure thing, I’ll bring a few since there is a fridge in here.


The nurses here are not responding to my calls. This hospital has poor service.

Well I think you need to give them a break. You have been calling them too often for very minor things.

But that's their job. They need to accommodate everything I need.

That is the thing, they are here for all your needs, not your wants.

I don't like them. I think they have an attitude towards me.

Too bad and I think the feeling is mutual. With your attitude I don't think they like you either.


Context: Riley got Jordan a gift but Jordan made a face of disgust when they opened it.

I got Jordan a gift.

When did you give it to him?

I gave it to him today.

What did Jordan think?

He made a face of disgust.

That's too bad!


I'm think Jordan hated the gift I got him.

I'm sure he liked it. Why do you think not?

He opened it and made a disgusted face, but said it was cool.

Did you pick out something blue? Jordan hates blue.

How did I not know this? I've been friends with him for years!

That's why he always wears red. I can't believe you never noticed!


So, I got Jordan a gift.

Did she like it?

No, when she opened it, she made a face of disgust.

Well, that was rude.

Yes, I spent a lot of money on it too.

Next time don't buy Jordan anything.


Context: Austin was walking up the stairs then when he got to the top he remembered something so he traced back down the steps.

Do you ever wonder if my head was not attached to my body, if I would lose it.

All the time! What did you forget this time?

I got all the way up the stairs and than realized I had forgot my drink.

You are always forgetting things, but at least you are getting exercise.

Well, I guess that is true, but I would rather remember things.

Well wouldn't we all!


Today I had a close call. I'm very relived.

You're relieved? What happened today?

I was headed up the stairs but something didn't feel right. I realized I didn't have my wallet with me.

That's no good. Did you try retracing your steps?

I thought it couldn't have been too far away. Since I had walked up 4 flights of stairs I simply reversed course and went back down. My wallet was lying near the doorway.

It's a good thing you remembered so quickly. If you took a couple more minutes, your wallet could have been a lost cause.


I need to get my shirt upstairs.

Okay, I am waiting.

Oh, I can't find the key to my room.

I think it fell off when you were climbing the stairs.

Let me trace it back.

Be quick, we have to go.


Context: Austin was walking up the stairs, when he got to the top, he remembered something so he traced back down the steps.

I am so tired from walking up and down stairs.

Why did you have to do that?

I forgot something after I had got to the top, and had to retrace my steps.

You should move to my apartment. We have an elavator installed here.


Context: Riley was trying to defend themselves, but he was not able to get a word in edgeways.

I don't understand why you guys are so mad at me. Explain this to me. No one will talk to me.

You stole Shawn's cat.

No, I didn't! Let me explain!

Let me finish, stop interrupting. Stealing a pet from you friend is not very nice

I didn't! She gave it to me then.

I don't want any excuses!


I am infuriated, why can't you hear what I am trying to say!

It doesn't matter what your opinion is, what matters is my opinion.

That's not fair! I've been trying to express myself all evening, and nobody will listen!

It's because we all know you better than you think.

That's not fair! This is an injustice, maybe I have something of value to add.

Maybe, anyway, I need to go now.


I was arguing with Bob yesterday.

What was it about?

He said I had stolen his tennis racket, and have to give it back.

Did you take it?

No, I borrowed it, and can't find it. He kept yelling and wouldn't let me explain.

Sounds as if you couldn't get a word in edgewise.


I'm just trying to defend myself.

You can barely talk, can't you?

No I can't, not even word right now.

Are you going to be able to recover?

I hope so, it will be good.

It will be fine, just give it a bit of time?


Context: Robin was having trouble finding a job in her area. Riley saw a position open and got Robin an opportunity at work.

Guess who just interviewed for a new job, today?

Congratulations! I know you've been looking for work.

I've been having trouble finding places that are hiring. Riley happened to come across a business that was hiring and asked me to apply.

What kind of work are you looking for?

I applied at the local bank.


Thanks for showing me the add for my new position.  I wouldn't have it without you.

No problem.  I seen it in the newspaper, and I knew that it would be perfect for you.

Well, so far so good.  The job has been perfect so far.

That is nice to know Robin.


Context: Carson decided to save money for his family, and instead of getting his haircut, he cut it himself.

So, I need your opinion.

Of course, how can I help you

I'm deciding if I should save my last 30 bucks on groceries or spend it on a haircut

Maybe you should just save it and cut it yourself

Gee, why didn't I think of that!

That's why I'm here for


Context: Carson decided to save money for his family, and instead of getting their kids haircut, he cut it himself.

How do the kids hair look?

It looks fine. I mean a little uneven, but fine.

I did it myself.

Wait, you cut your kids own hair?

Yes, I'm trying to save some money for a family trip.

Well I guess that's a good way to save up.


Context: Carson decided to save money for his family and instead of getting their haircut he cut it themselves.

I had to cut everyone's hair over the weekend.

Why did you do that? Barbers and salons have opened back up.

I know, but the whole family want a trip to Disney, and I need to save my money.

That's a little expensive, with being out of work all these month.

With the stimulus and unemployment, we are doing okay. I just need to cut corners, like with the haircuts.

I understand. I could use a vacation myself.


Context: Jordan always felt awful seeing stray cats around, so Jordan raised money to help build a bigger animal shelter in their neighborhood.

I can't believe we've reached our goal at the shelter! We're going to be able to build a larger shelter.

Are you serious? We need to find a way to raise some money

I know, and there are so many unwanted cats around. I hope this gives them a chance to find a home.

You are so soft-hearted. It takes a good soul to volunteer and raise that much money for the shelter.


I got the last donation in today for the animal shelter. They're relocating to the big building on 31st Street.

I can't believe you did it. Those cats are going to be so happy to be fed and maybe adopted.

It's going to take a while to round up all the strays. I have a trap and neuter plan in place, too.

Wow, you really have all these thought through. I can't believe you know so much about this.

I have been watching those strays for a while, and learning about the city's responses.

Combined with the new building, I am sure there are going to be a lot of happy new pet owners soon.


I raised money to build a bigger animal shelter in my neighborhood

oh that is great, what made you want to do that?

I just felt bad seeing stray cats around

me too I always wonder how they are feeling, and what they need

me too, so I want to try and help them

that is great of you to do, and I bet they love you for it


Could you contribute some funds to my kitty, buddy?

Sure, but only if I know what it is about

I have built a bigger animal shelter for stray cats around and, I need to equip the houses

What made you do that, Jordan?

I felt awful seeing cats running all around this place. Its a disturbing sight

I get it you animal lover , that's a good move


Hey, you know all those stray cats, that are always wandering around?

Oh yeah, I always see a cute little siamese, that I can never catch.  It makes me feel bad.

I always felt bad too.  I helped raise a bunch of money for a better animal shelter so they have more room for them at the ASPCA.

Wow, are they still taking donations?

Yes, I think you can go to their website and there's a link.

Wow, thanks for letting me know, I'll be sure to give them $5.


Context: Robin heard strange crashing noises in the woods and Robin risked her safety to protect Jan's property.

You will never believe what Robin did last night!

I think I heard, was that Robin who went into the woods last night?

It was, she said she heard the craziest noises and decided to go check it out.

What is it that she found?

She found two big black bears trying to get into our wooden hut that we built, and scared them away.

Wow, that is brave! I can't believe she risked her own safety just for some property!


Do you hear all those noises, Robin?

Yes, I do, it sounds like someone is trying to break in.

I am so scared, what should we do.

Don't worry I will protect you from any harm.

Thanks Robin just be careful.

I will check it out, and try to scare them.


Context: Riley and Robin went out to a club. Riley met a handsome man.

Riley met a hot guy at the club last night.

Really? What about you?

Are you serious, you know I have a boyfriend.

Yes ,but it's still nice to meet handsome men, right.

You are not wrong on this. I'm so happy for her though. He seemed nice.

Well wish her luck. I hope they start dating.


So who did you meet tonight at the club, Riley?

There was a really cute guy at the bar, and I got his number!

I told you that you would find someone tonight.

I know I was just so nervous after not dating anyone for years,

You look amazing yourself so it won't be that hard.

Oh stop it, you look way better than me.


Context: Sydney had to study for final exams and work. Sydney felt overwhelmed.

I've been studying and feel ready for the test. I don't know why I feel so overwhelmed.

Are you working and taking classes?

Yeah. I've been working too.

Maybe you should slow down, and not work during the school year.

You know I need the money. I have to work. I'll feel better once I've taken my exams.

Let's plan to go away for a few days when you've finished your exams.


I am feeling overwhelmed. There's so much I need to study for.

When is the final?

It's next week, but I also work full time.  If I don't help out and make some money, we'll get evicted.

That's a lot of stress on you.

It is and I am running on four hours of sleep each night.

This is not good, did you speak to your parents about it?.


Context: Jesse spent so much time online that he forgot what it was like to be outside.

I spent so much time online.

You know it's Spring and all the flowers are in bloom

I am sure it's winter.

This is because you spend all your life inside.

You are right, I need to go out. I need some exercise.

And a better food.


Context: Robin enjoyed day dreaming on lazy Sunday afternoons. One time, Robin had a fantasy about chasing rainbows.

Have I told you about the crazy daydreams I've had lately?

Not that I remember. I hardly ever dream when I take a nap.

Same here, but I just had one during my nap about chasing rainbows!

That actually sounds pretty amazing! Were you able to catch them?

No, it went just about as well as you'd think. I kept getting close to them but they'd just move.

Still sounds like some good afternoon entertainment though!


It is so nice to relax on these lazy Sunday afternoons

It really is

I have had some crazy dreams too

What did you dream about ?

My last dream was most recently about chasing rainbows

That sounds really magical, I like it !


You know what I enjoy?

What is that?

I like day dreaming on lazy Sundays. This one time, I created a fantasy about trying to catch rainbows.

That sounds colorful.

Funny, I see what you did there.


Context: Because Alex agreed to babysit his niece, he put her to bed at her normal bedtime.

I was babysitting my niece, she wanted to stay up late.

That's pretty normal for a kid her age.

Well, yeah, but her parents were counting on me to get her to bed early.

So, what did you end up doing?

I persuaded her to go to bed on time.

How responsible!


I'm going to be a good uncle, and make sure she gets some good sleep tonight

I'm sure your sister will really appreciate the baby being asleep when she gets home

She was been working overtime and she needed a day off to enjoy her time off

the baby looks so happy when he's sleeping and he makes that face

he is such a little cute baby


My sister asked me to babysit my niece!

Your niece?  I she the cute girl we saw yesterday?

Yes! she is so gentle I put her to bed at her normal bedtime

Ohh! she is a sleeping beauty.

Thanks!


Context: Sasha hiked , fished and camped all her adult life.

I can't wait for this weekend

What are you doing this weekend?

We're going camping this weekend remember?

Oh yea, thanks for the reminder. What are we doing again?

First we are going to hike to the camp spot. Then set up. And fish till nightfall.

I cant wait.


I feel very peaceful when I'm in nature.

I love the outdoors, too.

All my life I've felt cramped up, when I'm stuck indoors in an office all day.

I agree that nature is much more freeing and relaxing than being indoors!

That's why I've spent my whole adult life hiking, fishing, and camping whenever I get the chance.

We should go for a hike together sometime.


Context: Remy wrapped Quinn's arms around her in an effort to warm her up when she was outside.

It was freezing cold today.

Did you manage to stay inside?

No, I had to go out to run some errands.

That must have been really brutal.

I was with Quinn, I had to wrap his arms around me to stay warm.

Quinn must have been very cold too.


I cannot believe how cold it is outside in September!

Really? I don't think it is cold at all.

Well you must be a special kind of person because I am shivering!

Is there anything I can do for you to warm you up?

Yep, let me show you, give me your arm!

Ha, you could have just asked me to wrap my arms around you of doing it like that!


So I started getting really cold and I didn't have a heavier jacket.

Okay, I think I'm starting to see where this is going.

And Quinn was standing right behind me, so I just reached for him.

Okay, very smooth move on your part.

Thank you. And before you know it, he had his arms wrapped around me. Keeping me warm.

That is the perfect way to take advantage of an opportunity. I'm impressed by you!


It is so cold outside.

Look Remy is outside!

Ohhh! she is catching cold.

Can you go out and warm her up.

Ok! I will have to wrap my arms around her!


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

I published a new article in the newspaper.

What's the article about?

I gave the readers a thorough analysis of Riley's perspective.

That sounds great! I'll pick up a newspaper before work.


I finished my article this morning, Riley. I think you'll enjoy it.

Oh congratulations! I can't wait to read it.

I really gave an in depth and thorough analysis of your perspective.

Thanks, I really appreciate that. Nobody else seems to understand.

I hope they will, once they read the article.

That's what I'm hoping, as well!


Context: Kendall was riding on their bike down the street. All of a sudden, they hit a pothole and lost control of their bike. Kendall fell off the bike and scraped their knees.

Look at my torn up leg!

Oh that looks terrible! How did you injure it?

I was riding my bike and hit a pothole. It threw me off my bike.

That does look bad, but at least it wasn't way worse than that.

I suppose you are right. I could have torn up my face!

Definitely could have been worse!
