[Sorry, guys. She's one of those newbies.]

For God's sake. Really? This has got to be a first. Do these people even know who they're taking in? What am I even going to do here? I'm just a radio host back home, not - whatever you think I am.

I won't do this.

[Look. She's even throwing in a pause to show how serious she is.]

You wouldn't happen to have any annoying future-sister-in-laws of your own, would you.

[stillbetter]

[stillbetter]

[awkward silence indeed. Hmm.]

... Well. I should probably go now. I'm sure you must have things to do as well.
