0:20 Hey Steve. What happened? Why do you look so upset?
0:25 Oh man. I did not score good in my exams.
0:29 How much did you score this time?
0:32 I got a C - and now I’ve lost my one and only chance to get a PS4 for my birthday.
0:39 What do you mean?
0:41 I asked my dad to give me a PS4. He said he would only do it if I could get at least a B+.
0:48 Now, that’s real bad news for you.
0:58 Hey Jordan. Where have you been?
1:00 You have no idea. It’s been a real tough week, Steve.
1:03 What happened?
1:05 My uncle got really sick. I’ve been helping my aunt to take care of him.
1:09 Oh, sounds bad, I’m sorry to hear it. What did the doctors say?
1:14 They said it can be treated with proper therapies and a few surgeries. But, for now everyone back home is very upset.
1:21 He’s a strong man, Jordan. He’ll recover fast, I’m sure. Let me know if I can be of any help.
1:27 Sure buddy. Thanks a lot.
1:35 You look so sad Annie. What’s bothering you?
1:39 My boyfriend dumped me last week.
1:42 Whoa! But how did that happen?
1:46 Well..he was dating some other girl, too.
1:50 What are you saying?! Did he tell you that?
1:54 I read her messages on his phone. When I confronted him, he broke it down in pieces and told me everything.
2:00 Wow! It must’ve been really difficult for you.
2:05 It hasn’t been easy. I feel really bad. It was so humiliating.
2:11 That moron does not deserve you. Keep your head up high, Annie.
2:17 You’re a good friend, Carl. Thank you.
2:25 So, how did it go? Did you win anything?
2:28 Look at me. Do you think I look like a winner?
2:33 Ouch. Okay...Got it. You didn’t win.
2:35 Sorry Jordan, I didn’t mean to be rude.
2:39 Chill man, it’s okay. But you do seem to be more upset than usual.
2:44 I mean, you’ve been doing this for a while and by now you’re used to winning and losing. It’s part of the game.
2:51 But this time it wasn’t my driving. It was the car. It simply broke down.
2:58 Oh, but you did get it serviced before the race, didn’t you?
3:02 Of course I did, that’s why I’m so upset.
3:06 I can understand. Wish you better luck next time.
3:09 Yeah, and better mechanics as well, I should say!
3:18 What happened? Why do you look so upset?
3:26 Oh, sounds bad, I’m sorry to hear it.
3:33 Let me know if I can be of any help.
3:39 What’s bothering you?
3:44 But how did it happen?
3:50 What are you saying?!
3:55 It must’ve been really difficult for you.
4:04 It hasn’t been easy. I feel really bad.
4:12 But you do seem to be more upset than usual.
