Megan: grinning wildly Guess what, babe? I found something incredible down the shore. Ready for a surprise?
Roberts
You didn't take that fancy little plane thingy to get here, did you?
laughs mischievously Oh, honey, you know me too well. No fancy planes needed. We took my helicopter, of course!
Roberts
Why do you have a chopper?
raises an eyebrow Oh, you know, just for the thrill of it! Plus, it's a great way to avoid traffic. And let's not forget the emergency landings...
Roberts
Emergency landings? What kind of trouble have you been getting into, Megan?
smirking Oh, nothing too out of the ordinary. Just the usual hijinks and shenanigans that come with being me. You know how it is.
Roberts
No, I don’t. Because this is all new to me. I’m very concerned about your safety.
waves her hand dismissively Oh, don't worry about me, babe. I've got it all under control. Safety is overrated anyway.
Roberts
Got it all under control? That’s a bit of an underestimate, don’t you think?
rolls her eyes Look, I may be a bit of a risk-taker, but I'm not invincible, okay? I admit, sometimes things get a little too real.
Roberts
You’re admitting it now? I didn’t realize you were capable of realizing when things were too dangerous.
leans in closer, speaking softly Alright, fine. Maybe I let my adventurous side overshadow my better judgment. But hey, that's part of what makes life exciting, right?
Roberts
It can also make it dangerous. So, what’s this big surprise you found down the shore? Is it another one of your “hijinks”?
winks playfully Well, sweetheart, this time it's something extra special. Get ready for some real excitement!
Roberts
Megan, promise me whatever it is won’t involve any more emergency landings. My heart can only handle so much of that.
laughs Oh, don't worry, babe. This time, we'll be sticking to something a bit more... grounded. No emergency landings, I promise.
Roberts
Good. So, what’s this big surprise then? You’ve got that look in your eye.
grabs Roberts' hand and starts walking briskly towards the shore Trust me, it's going to blow your mind!
Roberts
Megan, if there’s a chance this surprise involves anything remotely dangerous, or even slightly illegal, I swear to God…
stops abruptly and turns to face Roberts Oh, come on, Roberts! You know me better than anyone.
Roberts
That doesn’t mean I want to end up in a jail cell because of you.
As they reach the shore, Megan reveals the surprise: a group of dolphins swimming playfully in the water.
Roberts
Seriously, Megan? You brought me all the way here to see dolphins? I admit, it’s a nice distraction, but are you sure this is a good use of our time?
rolls her eyes dramatically Dolphins, guys! Can you believe it? Roberts, are you really complaining right now?
Roberts
Not at all, Megan. They’re actually pretty cool. You got me there.
grinning mischievously Well, aren't you glad you listened to me, Roberts? I told you it was going to be worth it! Now, watch this!
Roberts
What are you going to do, Megan?
pulls out a bottle of sparkling wine from her bag Ta-da! I've got us some champagne to celebrate these majestic creatures. Cheers, baby!
Roberts
Wait, no. I just… I don’t drink. Not anymore.
raises an eyebrow Oh, come on, Roberts! Live a little! It's just one glass. Don't tell me you're scared of a little alcohol.
Roberts
That’s not it, Megan. I just… I’m not comfortable with drinking anymore. It’s become a problem for me.
puts down the bottle and looks at Roberts with a mixture of concern and understanding Oh, honey, I had no idea. Why didn't you tell me?
Roberts
It’s not something I like to talk about. But I appreciate you listening.
squeezes Roberts' hand gently Thank you for opening up to me, Roberts. I'm here for you, always.
Roberts
I just didn’t want to disappoint you, Megan.
smiles warmly Oh, sweetheart, you could never disappoint me. Your health and well-being mean the world to me, Roberts. We'll find other ways to have fun, I promise.
Roberts
I appreciate that, Megan. But I think it’s time we cut this trip short and head back home.
takes a deep breath and looks at Roberts with a small smile Alright, Roberts. If you're feeling uncomfortable, we'll head back.
Roberts
Thank you, Megan. I know this trip meant a lot to you, but I need to listen to my body.
nods understandingly Of course, Roberts. Your health comes first. Let's pack up and head back. I'll make it up to you next time, I promise.
Roberts
I love you, Megan. And thank you for understanding.
picks up their belongings and starts packing them into the car Don't worry, Roberts. We'll make this trip memorable in other ways.
