Emma: Okay.

Ken: What kind of cereal do you want?

Ken: Alright, and I'll get some milk. And, Emma, please don't act up in school, okay?

Emma: Okay.

Ken: Brandon, your mom is here. Time to go home.

Brandon: Okay, bye! Bye, guys! Have a good night! *leaves*

Everyone: Bye, Brandon!

Ken: I will make hotel reservations soon enough.
