an evening with the petersons

R: They all but drowned me in that pool they had, in that house in Ventura.

L: Ventura! Ventura! They never lived in Ventura!

R: Sure they did, that house was in Ventura. Justin was born there, remember?

L: Ventura is right on the beach! No way that house was there. We visited them in it. They never lived in Ventura. Ach! Du lieber!

R: Here's the phone. Dial Linda. Dial it. I bet you I'm right.

L: What are you going to bet?

R: A whole... quarter.

L: You're on. Katie, get on the other phone. He'll lie.

R: Dan! Oh, watching the game. Bet on the Steelers. Oh, I bet a hundred bucks. Well, with Lucie. Yep. Hey, when you lived in California and were the president of Six Flags, what city did you live in? Newhall!!!

L: Ha!

R: Newhall! Oh, that's right. Well, where was Kindra born then? VALENCIA.

L: I told you it wasn't Ventura.

R: All right. Well, pass the phone to Linda. Here's Lucie.

L: LIN. Well, we're arguing and Katie is laughing herself sick over here watching us. Is he not the most stubborn damn Viking you ever met in your life? Yep. Okay. Buh-bye. *Click.* Newhall!

R: Well, I can't be right all the time.

L: Just ninety percent. Seventy-one-years of this, I tell you what.

K: At least you got a quarter out of it.

R: I haven't got a quarter! Not a cent.

L: Ach! Du lieber!

R: She won't give me my allowance.

L: Du bist... full of Scheiß.
