Kaz: Ugh. Oliver, your backpack stinks!
Oliver: I know. Stop putting your gym shoes in here.
Kaz: Where else am I gonna put them, in my backpack? They stink!
Oliver: You know what else stinks, by the way? The advice you gave me about my dad.
Kaz: Oh, why? What happened?
Oliver: Well, I know he doesn't like the theater, so I told him I was in a play.
Kaz: Ah, what play?
Oliver: That's what he said. And since I wasn't prepared for him to ask, I was like "Um... um... um." So now he thinks that's the title of the play.
Kaz: What could a play called "um, um, um" possibly be about?
Oliver: That's what he said. And since we're reading Frankenstein in English class, I told him it was about Frankenstein, but the monster says his name like "UM... UM... UMMM"
Kaz: Frankenstein? That's so played out. Why would a bunch of high school kids wanna go see that?
Oliver: That's what he said! So I told him it was an updated version set in the White House.
Kaz: Oh, that actually sounds good. I'd like to see that.
Oliver: That's what he said! So on Friday, he wants to go to a play that does not exist! What am I gonna do? He's gonna know I'm lying.
Kaz: Well, Oliver, when you're caught in a lie, there's only one thing to do,
Oliver: Tell the truth?
Kaz: No! Pile an even bigger lie on top of the first lie. My brother taught me that.
Oliver: The brother who's in jail?
Kaz: You'll have to be more specific.
Oliver: Well, I really hate lying, but I can't tell my dad about Mighty Med. So I guess I'll have to write and produce an entire school pay by Friday, which means I can't work at Mighty Med, so my dad doesn't find out I work at Mighty Med.
Kaz: It's pretty funny when you think about it.
Oliver: No, it's not.
Kaz: Well... It's pretty funny when I think about it.
