A BOY
Can I try the dish ratatouille?

HIS MOM
Of course! I don’t know where to get it, though.

A BOY
I do! Paris!

HIS MOM

A BOY
February 2010.

HIS MOM
You’re going to Paris in February 2010?

A BOY
(skipping downstairs)
Sophia! We’re going to Paris in February!

You know, I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find myself in the City of Lights ’round about seven months from now.
