Change the genders around if you like!
① WOMAN: I wonder why he lags behind, just a little bit, sorta echoey? MAN: I wonder why I lag behind, just a little bit, sorta echoey? W: I wonder if he knows he's doing it! It's beginning to drive me crazy! M: I wonder if she knows I'm doing it! I must be crazy! (woman's part changes, words only) ② W: I wonder why he lags behind, just a little bit, sorta echoey? I can't believe he honestly doesn't know! It really makes me crazy! ③ W: I wonder why he lags behind, just a little bit, sorta echoey? I'll bet he's doing it on purpose, 'cuz he knows it makes me crazy! ④ W: I wonder why he lags behind, just a little bit, sorta echoey? I'll just ignore him! That'll serve him right! He can't make this kid crazy! (5) W: I wonder why he lags behind, just a little bit, sorta echoey? I wonder if he knows he's doing it... (ends only half way through -- sincere question!)
