TERRY: (Rolls eyes).
MRS. ADAMS: (Walks over). Good morning, boys.
BROCK AND TERRY: Good morning.
MRS. ADAMS: (MOTIONS). Sit down, boys.
TERRY: (Pushes Brock.)
BROCK: Why’d you do that? (In a rather loud voice).
TERRY: (Throws hands into the air and pushes Brock again).
MRS. ADAMS: (Runs over). Boys, is this how we want to start off the week?
TERRY: (Sighs.) But, Brock says it is a great day, and…
MRS. ADAMS: (Looks confused). You are upset, just because Brock is happy?
TERRY: (Shakes head no).
BROCK: I don’t know what’s wrong with him.
TERRY: (Reaches into his pocket.) My mom gave me twenty dollars to pay for my lunch bill, but I can’t find it. She is going to be really mad.
BROCK: (Smiles.)
MRS. ADAMS: When did you last have the money?
BROCK: (Reaches into his pocket.) Remember that I told you I found something?
TERRY: (Nods).
BROCK: (Hands money to Terry). I found this outside. I bet you dropped it.
TERRY: (Hugs Brock).
