| 0:00.0 | This is the Friends Visture Debating Society. I'm John Batchel. When last we left Dallas, |
| 0:05.7 | his family or two families of magpies, had become accustomed to ordering whatever they want at |
| 0:13.6 | that moment. Dallas then passes the order onto Jeremy. Jeremy supplies supposedly Dallas, |
