Lois: Dewey, how was your day?
Dewey: I got a new friend, his name's Ronnie. He just moved here. He's got a Nintendo, a Playstation, and a nanny. He's really rich.
Hal: [to the empty seat] Well, nice to meet you, Ronnie.
Dewey: No, he's real! I can make real friends, too!
Lois: Oh, of course you can, honey. Just don't be frustrated if it takes you a little bit longer than the other boys.
Dewey: Ronnie is real!
