本對話選自Kyle XY《神奇凱爾》。Nicole希望Kyle能在Josh房間里暫住幾天，所以Nicole在征求Josh的意見。

Nicole: This is Kyle, the special boy I was telling you about.
Josh: If he's suppose to be so special, why'd you stick him in the bathroom?(to Kyle) Nice to meet you...perv.
Nicole: The reason I am letting that slide is because I have a favor to ask of you. I would like Kyle to bunk down in your room for a couple of nights.
Josh: Are you kidding? This guy's got bed-wetter written all over him.
Nicole: Well, I'm only asking.
Josh: Fine. But you'd better bust out the rubber sheets.
Nicole: Have you seen Lori? She was supposed to be watching him.
Josh: Some tewacher called with test results. Mrs.Plounty-Pernhood.
