Sarah: "I'm making a shadow of a rabbit on your face with my hand."
Owen: "Well, stop."
Sarah: "Why? Am I bugging you?"
Owen: "Yes."

Owen: "Leave me alone, Sarah."
She leaves him alone, briefly.
Sarah: "I bet I can make a butterfly shadow."
Owen: "QUIT IT SARAH! I MEAN IT!"
Sarah: "I don't know why this is bugging you. It's just a shadow."
