W: Dad, what will we have for dinner?

W: Oh, no, I'm tired of such things now.

M: I'm sorry. But that is the only thing I can cook. What do you want to have then?

M: OK then. You'll drive, won't you?

W: No, I'm a bit tired today. You should drive.

M: OK, OK. I always do things like that. I hope your Mom will be back soon. Ah here we are.

W: Dad, what would you like to have? I'd like a hamburger.

M: I want one, too. And some French fries, Jill?

W: Please buy me some salad instead. And a glass of Coke. OK?

M: Hamburger, salad, and a glass of Coke. Is that all for you, Jill?

W: Right, and give me an ice cream, too. I'll go and find the seats.

M: And I'll get some vegetables for myself, and a coffee...
