0:01:20 > 0:01:23First, you have to make sure you have your favourite pencil

0:02:22 > 0:02:25Will they be done by the time I get home from school?
0:02:25 > 0:02:27I have a three-page paper due.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30I'm afraid the contractor said it could take a week, Arthur.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11and I had to write my paper yesterday in the tree-house.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17I, uh, ha-ha, included visual aids!
0:03:17 > 0:03:21Why don't you come over and study in my room until the leak gets fixed?
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Really? That'd be great!
0:03:23 > 0:03:25I'd advise against it.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58I've got a different vegetable for every country in the UN.
0:04:58 > 0:05:02I nibble them into the correct shape. This onion is Oman,
0:05:02 > 0:05:05the pepper is Peru and that radish is Romania.
