Kelly: He is a professional football player.
Teresa: Ah-ha, I thought so.

Vernassa: Of course, I am sure.
Serena: You shall go easy on her. she is new here.
Vernassa: Just how am I supposed to do that?
Serena: You shall just take it in surprise.
Vernassa: I've tried, but she keeps pushing my buttons.
