Tim: Okay, here are some towels, a bathmat and a bathroom scale. Don’t forget the cleaning supplies. She’ll need some rubber gloves, disinfectant, bowl cleaner, and a plunger. Jan: All right. We have all that. Where are you going? Tim: She’ll need a soap dish and a toothbrush holder. She’ll need a trash can, too. Jan: Okay, I think we’re all done. Kimberly is moving into an apartment with college roommates, not starting her own bathroom supply store. Let’s not go overboard. Tim: I just need to get a couple more things. Jan: What? Tim: I’m buying her 10 packages of toilet paper and 20 boxes of Kleenex. She’ll be living on her own for the first time and she’ll need all that. Jan: Ten packages of toilet paper and 20 boxes of Kleenex?! She can shop for herself, you know. You don’t need to buy her a six-month supply. Tim: Clearly you don’t know college students. They’ll go through that in a week! Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
