It means you probably did put the right amount of everything and you didn’t burn them which is a really good sign.

That doesn't mean anything.

They look like they’re the right colour. 

Which doesn't mean anything.

Do you need some help there? I know a great way to remove stains. 

We're both Candor born, so we've been wearing whites our entire lives.  By now all of us should know a great way to get out stains.

I know, and I will take on the charges, but I am really sorry, Nicholas.

Whatever.

No, no, no--Wait!

Well now I have to go change.  So you may not have meant it, but it is definitely your fault.

What do you want to be, Nick? I’m sure there’s something you’d like to do. -walks ahead and sits on the grass-y part of the quad-

Faction leader.  I'm pretty sure I've told you that before Dani. Lawyer's my second choice.

Of course I’ll think about it. I’m not stupid you know. And if I were, which I am not, you’ll be there to knock some sense into me. 

Not recently.  Just school, homework.  Both my parents are trying to make me think of following in their footsteps and becoming a lawyer so I've had to deal with them both calling me to talk about that.  Or in my mom's case talk about being a lawyer and then ranting about how much she hates Hayden.

Let’s eat it together then. That way, I wouldn’t regret eating it since your going to eat it with me.

Fine.  -slides a very burnt pancake onto her plate- 

So if I hook-up with someone? Is it still not a big deal?

Dani, it's your decision.  And no matter how I feel about it, it doesn't stop the fact that you'll do whatever you want.  So all I hope is that if you do decide to hook up with someone you aren't stupid about it.

Did she eat it?

Yeah. That's how you get food poisoning.

I’m telling the truth! If I were to rate from 1 to 10, I’d give it a 6. It’s not near perfect, ‘cause let me tell you, you are not a good cook.

You sure?  The last time I cooked something I gave Hayden food poisoning.

I wasn’t expecting a condom in there!

Stop overreacting.

It’s not really an ordeal to pick up a blanket and a box. 

Good.

Probably because we started making out. 

You better be prepared to clean it up later.

Why do I get the feeling the picnic is over?
