>>Jay has joined the call<<

>>Cole has joined the call<<

>>Lloyd has joined the call<<

>>Kai has joined the call<<

>>Zane has joined the call<<

JAY: I got something in the mail today.

KAI: What is it?

COLE: Is it going to bring terror on this house?

JAY: No, why would it do that?

COLE: Oh, I don't know. Pick any plausible reason.

LLOYD: What is it?

JAY: A book.

ZANE: What kind of book?

JAY: Uh, the kind you read. Duh.

KAI: What's the book about, Jay?

JAY: It's a joke book.

COLE: Oh no...

ZANE: I don't think you need one of those to be funny, Jay.

JAY: But it's still funny.

KAI: Did you pay money, for that book?

JAY: Uh... yes? Why?

COLE: We could have bought Zane with that money.

JAY: Oh, we're really going to go here, again?

ZANE: Guys, it's not a problem that he didn't get me. I completely understand.

LLOYD: No, Zane, it's not okay. But guys, it's not just Jay's fault. You were all too lazy. Maybe Jay was a bit more lazy-

JAY: Hey!

LLOYD: -but you all contributed.

ZANE: That is correct.

KAI: And to think, Zane could be here right now, but no. He's headed towards a new home.

COLE: That's so sad.

JAY: Yeah.

LLOYD: Well, at least you'll be out of the box soon, right, Zane?

ZANE: Yeah, that's good.

COLE: Will we have to change the time we all meet once you're at your new house?

ZANE: I don't know. Maybe. I'm not there, yet, so I don't know how things will work.

LLOYD: That's unfortunate.

KAI: I hope we can still do this.

JAY: Oh, we'll keep doing it, even if it means doing it at 2am. We'll still be doing it.

ZANE: I agree with Jay. Sleep isn't the issue for me, personally.

KAI: Yeah.

COLE: So, Jay, what about your book?

JAY: OH, yes. It's a joke book.

LLOYD: What kind of jokes?

JAY: Tons of jokes.

ZANE: But what kinds.

JAY: Many funny jokes from around the globe.

KAI: What kind of jokes, Jay?

JAY: It's a Christmas book.

COLE: Oh.

LLOYD: That explains a lot.
