Maribelle:
Now, repeat after me: "My name is Brady. Pleased to make your acquaintance."
Brady:
......
Maribelle:
Did you hear me? "My name is Brady. Pleased to make your acquaintance."
Brady:
...The name's Brady. Pleased to make your acquaintance.
Maribelle:
"My name IS," Brady. Not "The name's." Now, "My mother's name is Maribelle." ...Go ahead, darling. Try it.
Brady:
My ma... Er, my mother... Aw, nuts, Ma! Yer crazy if you think I'm puttin' up with this crap!
Maribelle:
Don't you dare walk out on me, young man!
Brady:
Ma, we're at war here. Ya know? With killin' and all that malarkey? If you wanna teach me something, teach me some tricks with a staff.
Maribelle:
I'll teach nothing of the sort to a boor who scoffs at the value of proper language!
Brady:
Why not?
Maribelle:
A person's words reflect their character.
Brady:
So anyone who speaks a little rough is some kinda knuckle dragger? Ain't that a little simplistic?
Maribelle:
Unrefined language shows a lack of concern for how one comes across to others. It demonstrates a lack of respect and is ample cause to judge someone.
Brady:
Why ya always gotta be so hardheaded about everything?
Maribelle:
Better a hard head than a brain made of mush! I'd sooner choose my words carefully than speak rashly and regret it.
Brady:
Sounds like somebody screwed up in the past, yeah? Who'd ya piss off?
Maribelle:
Really, must your EVERY phrase be vulgar? It should be "WHOM did you piss off," Brady. ...Go on, repeat it for yourself.
Brady:
Uh, something tells me that still ain't entirely proper speech...

Brady:
Huh... Never knew that...
Maribelle:
Good day, Brady. What are you reading?
Brady:
Oh! N-nothing, Ma.
Maribelle:
Don't tell me it's something salacious!
Brady:
What?! No! I don't even know what that word means!
Maribelle:
Give that here this minute! Let me see... "Proper Diction: A Beginner's Guide"?
Brady:
...Happy now? I was gonna surprise ya after I learned how to talk all pretty.
Maribelle:
Brady, you...
Brady:
Anyway, what of it?! I'm only doin' it what to get ya off my case!
Maribelle:
Brady, this book is designed for children seven years or younger...
Brady:
WHAT?! But it's so tough!
Maribelle:
I never imagined things were this grim...
Brady:
L-look, I just wanted to review the basics, yeah? You're always harpin' on the basics!
Maribelle:
Yes, they're paramount, naturally. But still... Chapter one: "Your Friend, the Noun!" ...This is honestly where you're starting?
Brady:
H-hey, get off my case! I don't need this! I talk just fine anyway, yeah? Forget all this! I'm'a make like pants and split!
Maribelle:
Goodness. Just what manner of education did my future self offer that poor boy?

Brady:
Indeed, I discussed the matter a fortnight past with Robin. Was I remiss in notifying you?
Maribelle:
Brady?! The voice is yours, but the words...
Brady:
I completed my reading of "Proper Diction: A Master's Guide" yesterday evening.
Maribelle:
Yes, I heard from many people. ...Frankly, the entire camp is terrified.
Brady:
I can only hope my more eloquent locution better conforms to your ideal son, Mother. Now, in further news of the day, I feel that we must allow for... *Gaaaaaasp*
Maribelle:
Are you all right?! What is it?!
Brady:
How do you breathe, Ma?! Talkin' like that damn near suffocated me! I seriously thought I might pass out.
Maribelle:
......
Brady:
I mean, uh, speaking in that manner nearly caused me to be overcome? ...From lack of respiration?
Maribelle:
Nice try, darling.
Brady:
Aw, horse apples! Ain't no good, Ma. The words just don't fit in my mouth. I feel like I'm gonna chomp my own tongue off here.
Maribelle:
Brady, I'm just so very pleased you even bothered to make the effort. But it's time I stopped foisting my ideals on other people. You can think and act responsibly without thinking and acting like me.
Brady:
You're creepin' me out here, Ma. What's with the sudden about-face?
Maribelle:
That's just it: YOUR sudden about-face creeped ME out.
Brady:
Right?! ...Wait, hey! Did you just call me creepy?
Maribelle:
Hmm, did I?
Brady:
I only did all that speakin' junk 'cause ya kept tellin' me to.
Maribelle:
I know, sweetheart. And I'm so very proud of my little honey bear.
Brady:
Gah, okay, stop! You're welcome, so just stop!
Maribelle:
Ah! Seems I've discovered another way to motivate you... Boo-Boo-Bear.
Brady:
No more, Ma! I'm beggin' ya!
