Alexis: No, everything's fine, it's just we don't spend a lot of time together just the two of us, which is why it's totally easy to just rain-check.
Ted: Isn't that all the more reason to go? I mean, I try to have lunch with my mom at least once a week.

Alexis: For sure, for sure. Okay, well I guess lunch is free, then. So I guess I will see you tomorrow.
Ted: Oh, well, there's still work to be done, so probably best if you come back after lunch.
Alexis: Okay, but nothing during lunch, though. Maybe?
Ted: Tell your mom I say hi.
Alexis: Okay, thanks.
