Have you heard of Janie Jean Taylor?
Oh, why yes! She's been a household name for years.
I know. She came to our high school reunion last night.
Oh!!! She was in your class?
Yes! We rolled out the red carpet for her.
I wish I could have been there.
Unfortunately, some paparazzi crawled out of the woodwork.
That figures. How many showed up?
Oh, about 40 or 50. It was a small reunion.
No, no, no, how many paparazzi were there?
Oh, that's a horse of a different color. Oh, there were at least a hundred.
(a horse of a different color = a situation or a subject that is different
from what you had first thought it was.)
A hundred paparazzi.
Yes!
Go go Janie Jean.

That's a lot of paparazzi.
So they love celebrities and ...
Paparazzi.
They love the paparazzi.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, my goodness. Well, here's the million dollar question.
Uh-huh.
Oh.
Has anyone ever rolled out the red carpet for you?
Well, you know, in our high school prom, the decorators rolled out the red
carpet for us and we had a red carpet that we walked across....
You did.
.... to get into the place.
A real one.
How about you, Jeff?
Umm... I've never had a real red carpet but my family comes to the airport
every time I go home...
Oh.
... from Japan. And they make a big deal out of it.
（make a big deal out of = 大騒ぎをする）
That's nice.
How about you, Ken? You are celebrity.
Oh, wait a minute.
You are celebrity.
I got some ....
We'll roll out the red carpet for you.
I got some red "tatami."
そんなことはない。（← No time と聞いてしまいましたぁ）

Mick threw all his money down the drain in Las Vegas.
What?
He's staying with his aunt in Rome in her villa.
Oh! He's lucky to have a huge roof over his head.
I'll say. He's got a job as a gardening assistant.
How's that going?
He's not into it. But he tags along to London, Paris, San Francisco, Puerto Vallarta
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puerto_Vallarta
（tag along = ついて行く）
Wow! Nice! Who pays for all the traveling?
His father, of course.
Wow.
I told him to quit doing that.
I think that's best.
Uh-huh.
I think that's best too.
Yes.

Did you hear about Denny and June?
I heard their marriage was on the rocks.
June walked out on Denny.
Would you pass the coffee?
Sure.
I'm not surprised. He treated her like a doormat.
Can you pass the butter?
Oh, sure.
When June left, she took everything but the kitchen sink.
Wow! Denny must have hit the roof.
Yeah. Pass the pancakes.
Oh, sure. There you go.
I'm sorry things didn't pan out for them.
Ohhh... How do you like the pancakes?
These are great, Wendy. Umm... They panned out for fine.
You can say that again. Would you like more, Peter Pan?
I would love to have more, Wendy, darling.
That was a twist.
Oh.
Oh, Hi Peter. The Wendy ... When did you become Wendy?
Oh, Wendy.

I'm going under the knife on Friday.
Is there anything I can do for you?
Yes, drop me off at the clinic then pick me up after the operation.
Okay.
Just to let you know, I've put my house in order.
Dad! You're only having a simple tooth extraction!
I know. But it's something that's been on the back burner too long.
Wow! Daddy, it's clean. You really did put the house in order.
Yes.
I'm impressed. I wish I could do this to my place.
You should have a tooth pulled out too.
Okay.
Hmm... maybe I need to have a tooth pulled out.
I need a couple.
How about you, Jeff?
Actually my house is pretty clean.
Oh, yeah?
Noooo ... Jeff, you are such a wet blanky. (a wet blanket = 場をしらけさせる人）
Yeah, you are pretending.
No, no. I'm a clean freak. （clean freak = 潔癖症）
Oh, really?
No more, no more of that comment.
