Judy:Ready as I'll ever be.

Ronny:Try to work up a little enthusiasm about meeting my parents.

Judy:It's not them I'm worried about.

It's me. What if I don't pass muster?

Ronny:My parents are going to love you.

They're open-minded and nonjudgmental people.

They won't care about anything except that I like you and you make me happy.

Judy:Me and parents are like oil and water.

I've never been good at making a good first impression.

Ronny:Then you'll gradually win them over.

Meeting my parents will be a cakewalk. They're nice people.

It's not like you'll be running the gauntlet meeting my nine brothers.

Judy:You didn't tell them I'd be meeting your parents tonight, did you?

Ronny:I may have mentioned it to Mark. Why?

Judy:What if they decide to show up and ambush me?

Ronny:They won't.

Judy:If you found out that one of your brothers were bringing a girlfriend home to meet your parents, wouldn't you want to be there?

Ronny:You have a point there, but it's too late to back out now.

Put on your game face and let's go, or we'll be late.

Judy:Okay, but just don't be surprised if I make a break for it.
