So 88 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: you know, is there a particular favorite food that you 89 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: if you had to eat that for the rest You've 90 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: got a hot dog on your chest. 91 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 2: I like hot dogs, yes, okay, hot dogs. 92 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: Hot dogs okay, And final question number three, if you 93 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: could make one thing illegal, what would it be. Hmmm. 94 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 3: I don't like people judge how you look. Okay, okay, 95 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 3: because when I grew up, I grew up in China. 96 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: Yes, people tell me I look too fat. I was 97 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 2: really big. 98 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: I was a big kid too.
