TOM: Carla! Please stop. I've got a headache. Carla!
CARLA: What is it, Tom?
TOM: Can you stop playing, please. I've got a headache.

TOM: Maybe your piano playing gives me a headache!
CARLA: I need to practise. I need to find a new talent. I know it's there. One day when I'm famous ...

LISA: Mum, can I join the football club?
MUM: I'm not sure, Lisa. What do you think, Bob?
DAD: Football. It's not really for girls, is it?
LISA: Don't be so silly, Dad. Lots of girls play football these days.
MUM: She's right, Bob. Don't be so old-fashioned.
DAD: Hmmm. Can't you just play in the garden with your brother?
LISA: It's not the same. I want to be in a team and meet new people.
MUM: It is a good way to meet new people and for Lisa to make new friends.
DAD: Oh, OK.
LISA: You're the best, Dad!

MUM: James. It's time for dinner.
MUM: Come on, James. Dinner is ready.
JAMES: Sorry, Mum. What do you want?
MUM: I want you at the table. It's dinnertime.
JAMES: OK.
JAMES: I love music. It's great just having some time to do nothing – just listening to music.
MUM: Is it? I never have any time to listen to music. I'm too busy with my work ... And looking after you lot.
JAMES: And that's why I love you, Mum.
