Grace: Hey, Ryan. How's your stay at your friend's?
Ryan: Yeah, about that...
Grace: (Sighs.) What happened?
Ryan: Well, you see, I'm allergic to dogs.
Grace: Uh huh.
Ryan: And, well, he has one.
Grace: So where are you staying?
Ryan: He's my only friend. Well, actually, he's my cousin.
Grace: What about your other friends?
Ryan: Lost them after I stopped talking.
Grace: Really?

Grace: You can stay with me.
Ryan: Are you sure?
Grace: Yep.
