Gabe:Okay. Hit me with them.
Michelle:1) I want a lifetime membership.
Gabe:To the gym?
Michelle:Yeah, to the gym. You know what gym memberships cost these days?
Gabe:... yeah. I do. I own a gym.
Michelle:2) You pay my full rate. No friend discounts.
Gabe:You got it.
Michelle:3) You stay with me while you’re in New York.
Gabe:What? Why?
Michelle:It’s one of my conditions. If you want my help, you have to agree to it.
Gabe:I have to come out there soon to look at locations. But I’m staying at a hotel.
Michelle:No. You have to stay with me.
Gabe:Why can’t we just meet up somewhere?
Michelle:Gabe. I haven’t seen you in 13 years. You were my best friend, and you disappeared on me. You want my help? This is the least you can do while I work on your campaign.
Gabe:Where do you live?
Michelle:Hell’s Kitchen.
Michelle:That’s on the west side, in case you forgot.
Gabe:I know where it is.
Gabe:Fine. I’ll stay with you.
