[ "Now that I got a new job, I bought a car too.", "Is it a new car?", "Yeah, I will be using it to drive to work.", "Oh wow. No more taking that bus.", "That took too long. With a car I have more freedom to work late but also leave later to get there.", "That sounds great! Good luck with it!" ]

[ "I am overjoyed to have this new car!", "You deserve it Remy, you work harder than anyone I know.", "I need this car to commute back and forth to work.", "I completely agree. It is a pretty cool car.", "Thanks! Can’t wait to show my co-workers tomorrow.", "Don’t make them jealous Remy." ]

[ "I am so grateful to Ash, he is a great friend.", "Is that the same Ash that lend you money last month?", "Yes, he lent me money for groceries.", "He has a great hear.", "He does indeed, I didn't know what to do, I was out of food.", "Did you pay him back already?" ]

[ "I wish payday was sooner.", "You and me both.", "Last week Ash had to lend me some money for groceries since I was low on funds.", "Next time you can also borrow some money from me.", "That would be so helpful, thank you!", "No problem." ]

[ "I borrowed money for groceries from Ash. I was low on funds.", "He always looks out for his friends.", "I would do the same for him if I had money.", "Yes, you would. Jan, you are a nice person.", "I wish I didn't have such a hard time now only because they cut my hours at work.", "That's tough." ]

[ "I really appreciate Ash lending me that money, I really needed groceries", "I heard he did! Missing those days from work while you were sick must have drained all your savings", "It did indeed. Ash was such are a life saver!

[ "I cannot believe Sasha stole my most cherished possessions!", "I've heard he was on drugs at the time and needed money for a fix.", "Well, he's clean and sober now and that's a very good thing!", "He couldn't have done it without your help.", "Good to hear. Now I want him to pay it forward and make up for that theft.", "I will manage to eventually. I heard he even volunteered down at the homeless shelter." ]

[ "I still can't believe Sasha broke into my safe and stole all those things!", "That's crazy- did you call the police and press charges?", "I thought about it, but I've known Sasha forever and I feel like I should give him another chance.", "I dunno man- sounds like he's not very trustworthy.", "It's going to take a long time before I can trust him again.", "Be careful- don't let him near anything valuable." ]

[ "I think everyone should have a chance to be forgiven", "Are you thinking about Sasha when you say that?", "Yes! I gave her a chance for redemption.", "I can't remember what she did wrong.", "She stole my most precious possession!", "So bad of Sasha" ]

[ "I am praying that Sasha doesn't break my heart again with her actions.", "I can't believe you are giving her a job after she stole from you the last time.", "Well I believe that everybody deserves redemption.", "Yeah but she has already proven who she is. She took your most precious possessions.", "It's only material. Those things can be replaced.", "I won't say I told you so when she steals from you again." ]

[ "I'm so freaked out right now.", "I'm sorry, Cameron. What happened?", "I was in a car accident today. Six cars were involved. It was a mess.", "Oh my gosh! Are you okay? Are you in the hospital?", "I'm fine physically. My air bag was deployed and kept me from getting seriously injured. But emotionally I'm a wreck.", "I can imagine!

[ "Sorry I'm late. I was stopped on the highway for speeding.", "Did you get a ticket?", "No. I only received a warning.", "I bet it was a local cop. A trooper would have given you a ticket.", "Yeah, it was a local cop. He didn't even ask for my license. Just pulled me over, told me to watch it, and then left.", "You got lucky man. That would have been your third speeding ticket this year." ]

[ "You would not believe how I got out of a ticket for speeding on the highway", "Oh please tell! I've never gotten out of a ticket", "Well to be fair I was just following the traffic, but I happened to be the last one. I ended up just crying when the officer came to my car!", "Oh wow and that actually worked?", "Yes I feel a little bad for lying, but getting a warming is better than having to pay a fine", "I definitely agree with that! I'm going to try that next time." ]

[ "I've learned that I haven't been on top of things recently.", "I know the feeling. That's when you keep putting things off and avoid starting on tasks.", "Exactly right, and I finally learned that the hard way. I had a swimming pool for years that I just took for granted.", "That's a nice luxury to have. It can be a great way to relax.", "Unfortunately, I haven't been maintaining it properly and it's started to leak water. I should have been more careful.", "That's a tough pill to swallow. I wonder if you could hire a contractor to check it out." ]

[ "I am going to have to fix the pool this year.", "Why? What happened to your pool?", "I didn't take very good care of it and now it is leaking.", "That sucks! How much is that going to cost you?", "I am not sure. I have to get some price quotes.", "I know a guy that works with pools, I can give you his number if you want." ]

[ "I can't seem to get this dog cam working. I wonder what is wrong with it.", "Hang on, let me help you.", "I know that it is not the app, so it must be the camera.", "Okay, hand it to me. Let me see what I can do.", "Okay, you take a look at that and I am going to head back to the hotel.", "Alright, I will see you in a bit after I take a look at this camera." ]

[ "Hey how's it going, my dog cam doesn't seem to be working.", "I've never used one, so wouldn't know how to help you there.", "Perhaps, it's the batteries, I know it's not the app. I have to film this vlog soon, but need to head back to the hotel first.", "Yeah, check the batteries, it could be the reason." ]

[ "Back at the hotel now - My dog cam isn't working. I was trying to get some shots of the city from a dog's perspective.....", "Bummer, I've had problems with that dog cam too. We probably should have bought different ones!", "Did you send yours back to the manufacturer?", "Not yet, but I think I should. It should have lasted more that 5 days.", "Yeah, mine only worked for a week. I'm calling them now...", "Let me know how it goes. I think I should get my money back." ]

[ "I need to go back to the hotel.", "Why? We are having such fun here at the festival.", "My dog cam isn't working. I'm afraid my dog did something.", "Maybe there's a glitch with the app.", "No, the app is fine. There's no live feed. Something happened to the dog cam itself. It is showing it offline.", "Maybe your dog ate it. He got sick of being spied on constantly." ]

[ "I need an assistant to help me proofread documents.", "That can be very tedious work.", "Before the meeting today I spent an hour proofreading and only found one word out of place.", "That's a lot of effort to fix one little word.", "It took about five seconds to select the out of place word but over an hour to find it.", "You should really look into getting an assistant to help you do that from now on." ]

[ "I'm happy I have a new crew of prisoners I get to show around the kitchen", "the last bunch you had were stealing so many things out of there I couldn't believe it", "hopefully I can show them how to cook and put the rest to work somewhere else", "I hope everything works out for you", "They seem like good people so I think it will" ]

[ "There are so many prisoners who are going to work with me to make food", "You're right. Do you know who doesn't need to work and who does?", "I don't know. There are people in the prison who haven't cooked anything yet. I think I will grab them and put the rest to work", "That is such a smart idea", "Yeah, it is. Thanks for helping me come up with a choice", "Of course" ]

[ "I have new prisoners who will be cooking our meals.", "Hopefully they cook better than the old prisoners.", "The old prisoners are now doing the cleaning and laundry.", "There is a lot of laundry to do for everyone.", "I hope for once we get a good meal.", "I'm starving and so are the prisoners." ]

[ "I've been weak since last week.", "So how did you go with cooking and the other chores?", "I got a new batch of prisoners to cook food and put the rest to work.", "Hmm, that's better.", "Yeah.", "Take care dear." ]

[ "We taught the kids for an hour and a half yesterday.", "It took you an hour and a half to teach kids one topic?", "Yes, but we were able to clearly indicate the topic.", "I guess that's great.", "It's amazing. The kids are catching on very fast.", "They'll be ready for the next grade." ]

[ "I am so impressed the kids have picked up the lesson so fast", "They seem like pretty smart kids and I think you wont have any problems with them", "I hope so. I have had a really bad week with some of the children falling behind in class.", "if you need some help with anything just let me know since i do not work this week", "that would be amazing" ]

[ "The kids weren't really paying attention in class today.", "Why weren't they paying attention?", "Some new video online or video game, I couldn't really tell. I went on for an hour and a half and one had the nerve to prove they weren't listening by asking the topic.", "Wow. Kids are easily distracted though, and those games are all they talk about.", "I felt like I wasted the whole day.", "And you will probably have to teach this topic again so that's another day." ]

[ "We've only been apart for a few minutes, but I misses Sydney so much I ended up crying!", "It's ok. Tears aren't all bad.", "It's just so sad! Why do I always miss Sydney so much? It's just so sad we can't always be together!", "It is sad. But it's part of life, too." ]

[ "I like Minnie Mouse.", "You have a Minnie doll I see.", "I had a big birthday party with Minnie. When I turned one, that's what my parents told me", "That must have been fun.", "I had Minnie Mouse balloons and napkins and presents in the pictures.", "Sounds like your parents really worked hard to make your first birthday party special." ]

[ "These are awesome vegetables", "Yeah, they are truly great. What are you going to do with them?", "I plan on making a nice sort of soup with it", "that sounds really tasty. I hope you have the best luck", "I most definitely will", "for sure" ]

[ "I don't think I did well on the math test.", "I am sure that you did fine!", "Well, I studied very hard, but it was much more difficult than I had thought.", "Honestly, the test is not worth too much in terms of your overall grade.", "I know, I just tried so hard.", "We will have to just wait and see next week when the results come back." ]

[ "I'm really worried about how I did on the math test I took this afternoon.", "Didn't you study for it?", "Not really. I tried to do all my studying at the last minute.", "So do you think you'll get a decent grade?", "I have no idea. I tried really hard to pass it.", "Well, considering you didn't really study for it, I'd have to disagree." ]

[ "Well, today was the day.", "Yep. The big math test was this afternoon.", "Do you think we did okay?", "Come on! I know you've been up all night studying Taylor, what could have gone wrong?", "This test sure was hard.", "Don't worry too much Taylor. It's going to be okay." ]

[ "I had the math exam today.", "How did you do?", "I don't know yet but I tried really hard studying this week.", "I am sure you will pass it.", "I hope so; we find out next week.", "Good luck!" ]

[ "I'm so happy I decided to move!", "Yeah I miss you, but I'm really excited for you!", "Yeah I'm a little nervous, but I am excited for the upcoming adventure in store", "Well I'll be sure to visit you soon!", "You know I would love that!

I'm going to miss everyone back home, but I really think I'll like it.", "If you keep a good attitude and are open to new experiences, you definitely will.", "That's my goal. I'm going to make sure to really take advantage of the move.", "I can't wait to come visit you." ]

[ "I am very sorry for Remy's loss.", "What happened?", "I had to give her some comfort as one of her friends died.", "That sounds horrible, poor Remy.", "Yeah, I wiped her tears away, and tried to do something fun.", "That's nice of you Alex. " ]

[ "I hate to see Remy cry!", "Why was Remy crying?", "She had been crying about the death of her friend.", "Ohhh! that is so sad!", "I had to wipe her eye with a tissue.", "I'm so sorry about her loss." ]

[ "I cannot believe Ash's got away with it, his parents were so angry with him!", "Yeah, that was bad. Not only could he has gotten hurt, but also his sister!", "I also had to tell ash what he did was wrong.", "That's because you care for him and so do his parents.", "Ash just don't understand me at all.", "You've been friend for some time Sydney, he will understand you and care. Please believe that." ]

I don't get many of those.", "You need to take a break once in a while.", "I am finishing up school and working two jobs to support myself. There really isn't a free minute most days.", "It's like you want to slow down but can't.", "Exactly. When I put my head down on my pillow every night, I feel so relieved.", "You can rest." ]

I need to give Kai a call to thank her for the recommendation.", "I am sure she will appreciate knowing that it was a positive experience for you." ]

[ "Hey, I'm so impressed for how Kai helped me out with a great therapist named Taylor.", "I bet you were grateful for the help.", "Yes I was. I totally thanked Kai for giving me Taylor's support.", "Kai has turned into an awesome friend, don't you think?", "Absolutely. I really have to do something nice for her now.", "That's a good idea. We need to plan something we can do for her as a group. Maybe take her out or something" ]

[ "Have you seen my glasses?", "I thought I saw them upstairs, in the hallway bathroom.", "I can't believe I have to climb that staircase again.", "I know. This house is so huge.", "Climbing those stairs is like doing a morning workout.", "You should ask your friend to install an elevator Sasha." ]

[ "I spent some years in jail.", "Wait. You were in jail. What happened?", "It's a long story. It has to do with my failure in college.", "You failed in college but it doesn't mean you had to go to jail.", "I could not find any job so I ended up committing crimes.

[ "I'm going to donate to that charity the television just showed.", "The one with the orphan kid after the hurricane? Yeah that was heart-breaking.", "Yeah, I'm calling the number now.", "How do you know they're legitimate? It's risky to give out your credit card number over the phone.", "Well what would you do?", "I think you should do some online research about the organization first. If they are a good organization then donate through their website." ]

[ "I can't believe how long it took me to find a job. I am so thankful.", "I know what you mean. When we were in school finding work seemed so easy.", "They lied.

I thought it was insane" ]

[ "I am so thankful that Sydney showed up when he did.", "What did Sydney have to do with it?", "He was on the shoreline and saw me struggling in the waves.", "Wow. Was it just like in the movies. Sydney dragged you to shore and had to pump all the water out and get you breathing again?", "I actually don't know. I must have passed out and came to at the hospital. I was told what happened.", "Thank God Sydney was there." ]

[ "I should thank Sydney for saving me!", "Lee you're lucky, Sydney just barely saw that car coming in time", "He was so brave to run and push me out of the way", "That's what any good friend would do", "Was Sydney ok? Any bruises or stuff like that", "maybe a couple but he was ok" ]

[ "I needed Sydney's help today, my skin was burning.", "I heard he got you some aloe.", "Yeah, and even with that it still hurts so badly.", "Hold on one second, let me break off more aloe for you.", "Oh, that feels better.", "I am glad that the pain is not as bad now." ]

[ "Jesse and I were tied for the championship, so we had to play one final game.", "That's tense! So what ended up happening?", "Jesse castled and sacrificed his bishop, and then I was able to get his king's rook with my queen.", "Haha! Jesse always castles too late in the game.", "Yep. One more move and I checkmated him with my queen and her knight.", "Jesse isn't nearly as good as he seems to think he is." ]

Carrying 250 lbs of cement?", "We will never know if do not try it first.", "This is impossible. We will never able to make it, Austin!", "You are right,. Let's just abandon this cement here and leave.", "Let's go." ]

[ "Remember me telling you I was finally going to get around to restoring that old car in the back?", "Yes, did you do it?", "Well I tried but I realized I didn't even have half of the tools or parts I would need", "Can you get the things you need and then try again?", "No it is going to be too expensive, I'll just sell the car as is and not do the restore on it", "I guess that is a valid option, but I know you really like that car!" ]

[ "I was so stupid that I thought I could win her love back.", "I told you that she had already moved on Austin, you have to let it go.", "The flowers, the candy, the money, none of it seemed to matter. I just abandoned the plan altogether.", "You can't win her back with that kind of stuff. You should have shown her affection and loved her, while you still had her.", "I know that now." ]

[ "My friend Sash welcomed my daughter for a visit.", "Is your daughter the blind girl?", "Yes and my daughter wanted to know where the bathroom was located.", "Did Sash show her?", "Sash graciously walked my daughter to the bathroom.", "Sash is a kind soul." ]

[ "My mom needs to apply sunscreen on me again. She does it a few times a day when we are out in the sun.", "She's protecting your sun from damage.

I get burnt so easily that I need to drench myself in sunscreen.", "Or not go out in the sun." ]

[ "My mom is so worried about me getting burned.", "Well you do have red hair and really fair skin, Austin.", "But it's a little embarrassing to have my mom yelling at me to put on sunscreen.", "Yeah, that would drive me crazy.", "I guess I'll keep putting in on every now and then so she'll leave me alone.", "Sounds like a good idea." ]

[ "I hate having to judge this singing competition", "Yes, everybody is so good.", "It's not that; it's just that Jan is my friend.", "Well, you shouldn't be judging at all.", "I didn't know that Jan was in it when I volunteered, and I'm the only judge; everybody else dropped out. so I couldn't quit.", "Well, it's too late to pull out now. You'll just have to make a fair decision and hope everyone accepts it." ]

You already prepared for the role, right?", "Yea but I forgot a lot of it since they turned me down the first time around. I'm gonna need you to help me this week with the role man.", "Oh I don't know how much help I would be these days Kendall. It's been many years since I walked the wooden planks of a Broadway stage. Those glaring lights and the sea of people feeling your every move.", "Nonsense, it's a T.V program, you'll do fine. Just remember, this could be the gig that catapult's my career into superstardom, so we both need to be completely focused.", "Agreed. Thanks I needed that. We can rehearse at my cabin, it's a perfect spot in the middle of the woods. It's cozy and there'll be no interruptions." ]

[ "I just got back from my friend's home where I went for a visit.", "Hope they are doing okay. What happened?", "My friend Kendall got home from the hospital after she got in a motor accident and fractured a couple of bones.", "Ouch! I'm sure Kendall was grateful for your support.", "I brought some freshly baked scones and fresh fruit along with some Gatorade. I will do everything I can to help ease the pain.", "You are a true friend. All that you do for others is wonderful." ]

[ "I've been busy buying supplies for Kendall since she just got home from the hospital.", "It's really nice that you're taking care of her.", "I\"m happy too. She would do the same for me.", "Do you want me to help you out with anything?", "Thanks. But I think I have everything Kendall needs.", "I hope she remembers all this around the holidays." ]

[ "I feel so bad about my behaviour the other night at the party", "What did you do?", "I was taking meds and wasn't supposed to drink but it was a party so I drank way too much!", "Oh no, did you cause a scene?", "I think so, I was told I made a spectacle out myself but I don't even remember", "I hope you apologized and learned your lesson!" ]

Bless your Mom. Is this the first time he's actually put his hands on her?", "First and last! I took him down with one punch and screamed that he better never lay another finger on her or he'd have to deal with me!", "Good for you standing up to him and for your Mom! You're a brave and good son." ]

[ "I knew that this day would come.", "What day are you talking about?", "The day that I stood up to my abusive father.", "I’m so sorry to hear about your father.", "Don’t be because that man has serious drinking issues.", "Austin, I really hope your father is not too abusive." ]

[ "I stood up to my father yesterday after he's beating us up every day and punched him hard.", "You need to report this. It was self-defense.", "Do you think that it was the best thing to do, you know he was drunk as usual.", "Did you really hurt him?", "He looked fine when I saw him this morning, only got a few bruises, hope he learnt the lesson and won't be abusive anymore." ]
