Another Brilliant Idea

 

Holly Belle: Today's the day!  Are we ready?
Nathan: Ready for what?
Holly Belle: Don't you remember my brilliant idea?
Nathan: Um, you've, uh, had so many...

Holly Belle: It's the end of summer picnic that I planned.
Ann Marie: I don't know Holly Belle.  Isn't it a little late for that?

Holly Belle: Well, we couldn't have had it while it was still warm, 
because it wouldn't have been an 'end-of-summer' picnic.  
It would have just been a picnic.

John Martin: It's freezing outside!
Holly Belle: It's not that cold!  It's just bracing.  Invigorating.
We are British, you know.
John Martin: Speak for yourself.  I'm officially a soft American.
Ann Marie: Sorry, I think we'll sit this one out.

Holly Belle: Nathan!
Nathan: Good grief!  Oh, very well.  Let's have a picnic.

Later...

Nathan, teeth chattering: M-m-more lemonade?
Holly Belle: >Ugh< It is cold out here.

Holly Belle: Alright, this was a terrible idea.

Holly Belle: Go ahead, Nathan, say it!  I have terrible ideas!

Nathan: Well, that's not really true.  You just have a lot of ideas.
They can't all be winners.

Holly Belle: Why, Nathan, I think that's just about the nicest
thing you've ever said to me.

Holly Belle: What the heck's the matter with you?!?
