| 0:00.0 | Greetings. |
| 0:05.7 | Welcome back to Clock and don't you lock this back? |
| 0:08.3 | I'm just saying, child, we look good. |
| 0:10.1 | I'm not going back. |
| 0:11.6 | I'm not going back. |
| 0:13.6 | This week, folks, our recommendation to you is to set up your Google Flights Price Alerts for your summer vacation, please, right now. |
| 0:21.4 | Immediately. |
| 0:21.7 | Okay? Because these prices, child, they are high and they are only going to get higher |
