"Get home this instant!"
"No, thank you."
"Now, Sophie. I'm not even joking."
"Sorry, I'm very busy today."
"If you don't come home, you'll end up visiting me in Wentowrth Prison."
"Daniel, stop being overdramatic."
"She told me that I had chosen the wrong look for the wedding, Sophie. The wrong look!"
"I honestly don't understand why you let her get under your skin like you do."
"I don't let her. She has this nack of pissing me off, that's all."
"Because you let her piss you off. You should just ignore her."
"I can't, Sophie. She's my grandmother."
"She means well."
"She said that I had chosen the wrong look for our wedding, Sophie! How does that translate to her meaning well?"
"Connie just wants to make sure that we have a nice wedding, that's all."
"What makes you thing the wedding I planned isn't nice?!"
"I didn't say that."
"It was implied."
"Daniel, you're her grandson. How many times does her grandson get married?"
"Twice."
"Twice? Wait, who are you marrying after me?"
"Me? No one. I meant Samuel. Her other grandson. The one marrying the she-devil."
"..."
"..."
"Where's Keira and Logan? Have they left yet?"
"No, they're still here. I have a feeling that Keira is loving Connie bossing me around too much to want to leave."
"Probably."
"How did this turn into a Pick On Daniel kind of day?"
"Would you rather that I lie to you?"
"Yes."
"But we promised not to lie to each other."
"Sometimes, little white lies is a good thing."
"What, like that time you told me that my haircut suited me when it was horrible?"
"I was being supportive! And anyway, it turned out you were wearing a wig."
"You didn't know that at the time."
"..."
"Look, Keira's flight is in a few hours and then she and Logan will be out of our hair."
"That doesn't solve the problem of my grandmother."
"..."
"..."
"Ok, so she thinks you've chosen the wrong look, yeah?"
"Yes."
"What did she suggest instead?"
"An Art Deco theme. Like Gatsby."
"That's not a bad idea."
"No!"
