A:  
 Claire:  Mike, we're helping Ms. Flower decorate her cafeteria! Wanna help?
Mike:  Yeah, I'll help with some advice. Don't take the decorations down and you won't have to put them up again next year! Actually, Claire, I just don't have the time!
 Bob:  Mike, Mr. Cleaner sprained his back. Let's all shovel the school walk for him!
 Mike:  Bob, I don't even do my own walk! Besides, I'm pretty busy right now!
 (Mike left.)
 John:  Sometimes I think Mike isn't such a nice guy!
 Bob:  John, he's that way only on the surface! Underneath that hard exterior beats a heart!
 John:  Oh yeah?
