Dialog
Maria- Honey, I'm really going to miss you while you are gone.
Jacob- It's only going to be for a week. Hey, why don't I take a
picture of us together and you can put it up on the refrigerator. You can
think of me every time you pass through the kitchen.
Maria- But it'll take a few days for it to get developed and you
will almost be home by then.
Jacob- No, honey. Remember I got that digital camera for my
birthday? It doesn't use film so it doesn't have to be developed. We'll
just print out the picture on our printer.
Maria- Oh, right. Okay. But who's going to take our picture?
Jacob- Hmmm... good question. It's too late to ask someone for
help. Everyone's sleeping.
Maria- Doesn't your camera have an automatic timer on it?
Jacob- Yeah, it does. Good idea. We just have to attach it to a
tripod and get it set up.
Maria- Great. But first I'm going to change my shirt.
A few minutes later...
Jacob- Say cheese!
Maria- Cheese.
Jacob- Okay, let's take a look.
Maria- Oh, honey. Your eyes are closed!
Jacob- Yes, and you have a strange smile.
Maria- Let's try it again.
