Todd talks with Meg about what she has to do and offers to help her out.
Todd: Meg, thanks so much for helping me clean my house.
Meg: Yeah, no problem.
Todd: Oh, you were a big, big help. So I want to thank you. I want to repay you. So tomorrow can I take you to lunch?
Meg: Oh, it's too bad, but tomorrow I'll be really busy.
Todd: Oh, yeah. Why?
Meg: Well, I only wash my clothes once a week, so I need to do my laundry tomorrow.
Todd: Oh, right. Do you wash your clothes at home or at the coin laundry shop?
Meg: I usually wash my clothes at home because I have a washer.
Todd: Oh, nice. Do you have a dryer too?
Meg: I don't have a dryer, so I have to go to the coin laundromat to dry my clothes.
Todd: Right. So for work, do you usually iron your clothes?
Meg: I usually iron my work clothes before I hang them up.
Todd: Oh, right. You know, I never iron my clothes.
Meg: Really? Why not?
Todd: I just put my clothes in the dryer and then I take my clothes out of the dryer when they're still hot and fold my clothes, and usually they're okay. I don't have to iron my shirts or pants or anything.
Meg: That sounds good. I also have some clothes that I cannot wash at home, so I have to drop them off at the dry cleaners.
Todd: Oh, yeah. Oh, right. I use the dry cleaner sometimes. Do you use the dry cleaner by the supermarket?
Meg: I use the one by the train station.
Todd: Oh, right. Okay. I know that one too. Yeah. Well, since I want to do something for you and I can't take you to lunch, maybe I can drop off your clothes at the dry cleaners.
Meg: Really? Will it be okay?
Todd: Oh, no problem, because tomorrow I have to return some movies that I rented. So after I return the movies, I can take your clothes to the dry cleaners.
Meg: Wow. Thanks. While you're going to the dry cleaners, could you also mail some letters for me?
Todd: Sure. No problem. Just at the post office, right?
Meg: Yes. Just at the post office.
Todd: Okay. Oh, I have an idea. How about this? Since you are busy, after I go to the dry cleaners and I drop off my movies, I buy lunch and I bring you lunch to your house?
Meg: Yeah, that sounds great.
Todd: So what would you like for lunch? I can get Thai food, Chinese food, pizza.
Meg: Pizza sounds great.
Todd: Okay. I'll go to the same pizza place we use for the party. It's really good.
Meg: Sounds great.
Todd: Any kind of pizza?
Meg: I like pepperoni pizza. What do you like?
Todd: Oh, pepperoni's fine. It's for you, so definitely, I'll get pepperoni pizza.
Meg: Oh, okay. Great. Thanks a lot.
