Speaker 2 (3:22) Bernice and her friends are sitting and eating lunch. Bobby has a story to share and everyone wants to finish eating before he starts. They all eat a bit more while Bobby tries to finish some baby carrots. And then he tells them all about his dream. Speaker 2 (3:46) Bobby has a very crazy dream. Speaker 2 (3:54) Okay, are you ready? I mean, really ready to listen? Bobby asked. Can I finish my rap first? Elizabeth asked. Or just a few more bites? I listen better when I've finished my Speaker 1 (4:07) lunch. Speaker 2 (4:09) Yeah, and you make noise when you eat, so it's hard to hear what Bobby is saying, Gertrude said with her mouth full of food. Hard to hear, Ethan said. Bobby practically shouts whenever he wants to share something. Everyone in the whole cafeteria is going to hear. Speaker 2 (4:28) Okay, okay, I'll give you the time it takes me to finish these carrots my mom gave me, Bobby said. Oh no, carrot farts? And I have to sit beside you next period, Gertrude said. Blame my mom. Speaker 2 (4:46) Bobby started stuffing carrots into his mouth as fast as possible, chewing quickly, with a look on his face that made it seem like he was eating something truly terrible. Speaker 2 (5:00) You know, if you need help, those are my favorite kinds of baby carrots, Ethan said. They're sweet and yummy. Speaker 2 (5:10) Bobby quickly slid the remainder across the table. He finished chewing what was in his mouth, took a big drink of milk, and wiped his mouth with his hand. Speaker 2 (5:22) Okay, I see you all have had a few more bites and your brains should be significantly nourished and able to listen to this amazing story. Speaker 2 (5:35) A story, Bobby? Bernice said as she nibbled on her apple slices. I thought maybe you wanted to share some new experiment or robot. I'm not into robots for a while. Mom's orders. She said I need to focus on fundamental science for the next few months. I think that is what caused my dream. Speaker 2 (5:58) A dream? Bernice groaned. Oh, not another one of your I-became-something dreams. Speaker 2 (6:07) Burn. Let me finish. I gotta share this. Speaker 2 (6:12) Bobby leaned across the table and spoke a bit quieter to get everyone's attention, which everyone knew wouldn't last. As soon as he got excited, the loud voice would follow. Speaker 2 (6:28) Last night, I had this crazy dream. I don't know if it was the carrots my mom has been forcing me to eat or the extra bowl of chili I had last night. My dad makes good chili, but he puts beans in it, which have the same effect as carrots. Which is funny because we can go around the house making
