This episode is a dialogue between Piero and Annie. They’re going to something called a “ranch,” basically a large farm with many different kinds of animals. Let’s get started. Yee-haw!
Piero: What’s all this?
Annie: I’m visiting my sister and brother-in-law’s new ranch next month and I’m getting ready for it. I know I’m a city girl, but I plan to fit right in on that ranch and work alongside all of the other cowboys.
Piero: Well, you look the part. You’ve got your cowboy hat, a lasso, and are those chaps?
Annie: Yes, of course.
