Maggie： I'm definitely about to kill myself.

Peggy： Why？

Maggie： Because you think I'm all like， "Hey， man. Check me out."

Maggie， you've been like this since we were kids and all I'm thinking is， now that you're aware of it and that it hurts people's feelings sometimes. Maybe it's time to get on with life and 13）commit to someone of your own like Bob， if he's the one.

Maggie： I know. Is there anything I can do to 14）make it up to you？

Peggy： Well， there's always the thing that brings warmth to my heart and that is 15）duckbilled 16）platypus.

Maggie： Duck-billed…that is only funny in like Camp Birchwood on a…

Peggy： Just do it， do it.

Maggie： Trip with the tent and my leg is the 17）pole and it's raining， and you know that's the only time that's funny.

Peggy： Let's just see.
