Frankie: Okay, then I'll start. Well, Tuesday night, I really want you to come to Ehlert's with us so we can all pick out a Christmas tree together.
Sue: I love picking out the Christmas tree!
Axl: Yeah, that's not gonna for me. I'm going night sledding with a bunch of people at Killer Hill.
Frankie: Well, if you come with us to pick up the tree, I could push the decorating till after.
Axl: [scoffs] Can't we just get the tree the next night? If you can make that work, I'd be willing to throw in two family dinners with light conversation.
Frankie: I was gonna do cookies Wednesday, but I could move the cookies, and I will hold you to your offer on the meals.
Axl: Fine. I will give you Wednesday, but that's a no on the cookies.
Frankie: Can you do cookies on Thursday?
Axl: I'm not doing cookies at all.
Frankie: Not even-
Axl: Cookies are off the table.
