    Mrs. Shing: [Leaving message on the answering machine] Hello, Viviea? This is your mother. Just calling to say hi. Hope your birthday good. Did Wil show up? Thought you may wanna talk after she leaves. Oh, maybe she's still there? Okay. Bye.
    Wil: Oh, my God. You talked to your mother about us?
    Vivian: Yeah. So?
    Wil: "So"? Does she know we have sex?
    Vivian: [sighs] No, Wil. She thinks we conjugate Latin verbs.
    Wil: Really?
