00:02 [ONSCREEN] "I" language

00:06 [DAVID and GINGER sit tensely on a couch with their legs crossed] GINGER: David, I need to talk to you about you about our credit card bill.

00:09 DAVID: Fine, Ginger, go ahead.

00:11 GINGER: It's getting way too high. You promised me that you were going to put money away so that we can go on vacation at the end of the year.

00:16 DAVID: Well, I --

00:17 GINGER: The past two months you have not put any money away.

00:20 DAVID: I didn't realize that I wasn't putting any money away, and I thought that we needed the camera equipment for the vacation...right?

00:27 GINGER: Almost all of our MasterCard bill is your camera equipment. You bought an underwater camera; you don't even like to swim.

00:35 DAVID: Well, I -- you know, I feel a little concerned here because I thought that I was sticking to the budget. I didn't realize that I was so out of control.

00:42 GINGER: I just need you to stop being so extravagant.

00:45 DAVID: Alright, well, I mean, I guess I can work on that and not be so extravagant.

00:50 GINGER: Thank you.

00:51 DAVID: I guess we don't need all that camera equipment anyway.

00:53 GINGER: You're not going to have anything to take a picture of if we can't afford to go on vacation.

00:56 DAVID: That's true. Alright.

00:58 GINGER: I'm sorry I got so upset, but I just, you know, I need you to stick to the plan.

01:03 DAVID: I think I can do that.

01:05 GINGER: Thanks.
