Gwen and Sean said in unison, “Don’t worry about us. We’d rather eat crap than let him give us food.”

Caroline couldn’t help laughing at how in tune they were with each other. “It seems that Sean’s probation will be over pretty soon.”

Sean said proudly, “Look, Kirk, Carrie has a way with her words.”
