Freddie, why did you stop
Freddie, is this what you meant by we can make it?

OK, lets get this out of here. Every job needs a supervisor so here I am.
I didn't do well enough so back to the worker ranks, local citizen will supervise
Ok, we're walking. Alberto assures us it is less than one kilometer
Alberto, do you know the way to the school?
