Toby and his brother, John, are going to (contend) in a car race. |
|
| I have to be (cordial), because he is my brother, and I need to respect him. | |
|
| I have a (credible) source saying that the race will be held in Paris. | |
|
|
|
|
John was right about the race being in Paris, and him and his brother talk before the big race. |
|
| We need to (curtail) this meeting, because I have to get ready for the race soon. | |
|
| I don't want to (demean) you, but you are a horrible driver, and I'm going to beat you. Sorry that this isn't the most positive meeting. | |
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, Toby is heartbroken and acts as if everything is bad. Right before the race begins, John and Toby talk one last time. |
|
| I'm sorry for being so rude to you, and saying that you're a horrible driver. Try not to be so (cynical), you really are a great driver. | |
|
| I accept your apology. Though, I believe I will beat you in this race. | |
