Summary: Are you between the ages of 6 and 18? Do you feel hungry? If so, then try eating a school lunch in this episode. Slow dialogue: 1:15 Explanations: 2:56 Fast dialogue: 15:11 Chris: What are you doing? Let’s get into the hot lunch line. Sybil: See this lunchbox? My mom made me brown-bag it today. She says that the lunches served at school aren’t nutritious enough. Chris: That sucks. What did she make you? Sybil: A salad. Chris: Oh, gross. I really feel sorry for you. What else? Sybil: Let me see. There are some carrot sticks, too. Chris: Sucker! You should have thrown a fit. I wouldn’t have taken it lying down. Listen to me. You should ditch that lunch and buy lunch instead, like me. Sybil: I can’t. I don’t have any lunch money. Do you want to trade some of yours for mine? Chris: You’re dreaming. There’s no way I’m trading my pizza for your salad and carrot sticks. Sybil: Not even if I do your math homework? Chris: Math homework? Now you’ve got my attention. Sybil: Only if you give me the entire slice of pizza. Chris: You drive a hard bargain. How about this? I’ll split the pizza with you, if you’ll do my homework. Sybil: You must really think I’m a sucker if you think I’d agree to that! Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
