Sapphire: And people thought the tables were so cute they bought some to have at home.
KatieBear: If you live in a warm place, you can have your table on the patio. If you live in Alaska, you don't get to use your table much if you put it outside.
Mr. Vegas: What's Alaska? Oh, wait, I remember. You told me about Alaska when you first came here. It's a state, like California, and a state is a big place where lots of people live and there are fifty -- fifty, that's a lot -- states in the United States of America.
Patriot Bear SIR: Well said, Vegas. I'm glad you remembered all of that.
Nanette DuBeary: Me, too. And now can we show the pictures of the three bears in chairs?
This chair is too small! This chair is too big! This chair is just right!
Bitsy: Ms. Mary read me the story of the little girl and the three bears. There's supposed to be a little girl sitting on three different chairs.
Mr. Vegas: We don't have a little girl. We have a baby and two different chairs and lots of bears.
Bitsy: I like the story with the little girl. You said we were doing the three bears story.
Billy: This is real life. We are doing the story with real bears and real chairs. If we were pretending, we could pretend a little girl was here and we had three chairs.
BettyBear: This is pretending in real life, Billy. You are wearing a duck suit and I am wearing a little devil outfit. We could put Miss Liberty Melody Barbara Hope Francis -- how did such a little baby get such a big name? -- on the chairs, but both are too big for her.
Billy: If we were pretending, we could pretend one chair was the right size.
Lex: This is getting really confusing. I think I need to take a nap.
Mr. Vegas: Not yet, Lex. We still have more bears on chairs.
Marta Pearl Beary: And Ms. Mary bought something else, too. Remember? I didn't think she had a lick of fashion sense, but I have been surprised. She has taken a very important step in the right direction.
Nanette DuBeary: So let's do a fashion statement and then get back to the chairs. Please?
