You're late, Serge. Sleeping in as usual, I suppose?  You promised you'd go get some Komodo dragon scales for my necklace, remember?
Since you were late, my mom asked me to baby-sit the kids!

Good!  That's what I wanted to hear! OK, then! Don't just stand around! Go collect some scales at Lizard Rock. Let's see...I think 3 should be enough.  Good luck, Serge! I'm counting on you!

But the important thing now is not our childhood but my Komodo-scale necklace!!! YES! We have to face up to reality and live each day anew!!!
