CAROLINE: What should I get Uncle Teddy? 
DRAKE: You could get him a tie.
CAROLINE: Are you kidding?
That's the stupidest gift one can buy. I don't want to get a tie.
DRAKE: Why not?
CAROLINE: Everybody gets men ties for Christmas. It's too boring.
Everybody buys either ties or sweaters. I want a more unique gift.
DRAKE: Well, you can buy him a pet iguana then.
CAROLINE: That's a cool idea. At least it would be a surprise.
But I'm afraid he wouldn't take care of it.
DRAKE: He would think you were crazy, Caroline.
CAROLINE: Yes. An iguana is too strange for a gift, and a tie is too normal.
So I have to find something halfway between.
DRAKE: How much do you want to spend?
CAROLINE: Well, he was very good to me.
He helped me edit my essay for the scholarship contest.
So I want to spend at least 75 dollars.
DRAKE: Alright, I have an idea.
You know he carries that conservative-looking briefcase every day.
CAROLINE: Yes.
DRAKE: Well, he isn't a lawyer, so I don't think he needs to have a briefcase like that.
CAROLINE: What should he have then?
DRAKE: I think he would appreciate having a very fine leather bag.
But more like a bookbag or shoulder bag.
You know, not so hard and square like a briefcase.
CAROLINE: I think that's a great idea. Men look great with that kind of bag.
Where can we buy one?
DRAKE: I don't think this mall has a leather goods store.
So we have to go to State Street.
CAROLINE: Alright. We can go later then.
DRAKE: We can buy something for Mom and Dad here,
and then go buy Uncle Teddy's gift on State Street.
CAROLINE: Good plan. What should we get for Mom though?
DRAKE: She said she wants one of those automatic foot massagers.
I think they sell them at Sears.
CAROLINE: Alright. We can go check at Sears and see if they have them.
And what about Dad?
DRAKE: How about the iguana?
CAROLINE: I think it would be a great joke.
But I know we'd have to take the iguana back. And the pet store might not let us.
So why don't we get him something else? Some clothes maybe.
DRAKE: A tie?
CAROLINE: Oh, shut up about ties! Forget about ties, why not?
DRAKE: I was just kidding.
