Finn...
I need a favor.  I think you know who Bella Banks is.  Well, Sunday
is her birthday and I'm putting together a little surprise thing for
her.  I talked to her dad about having it at her place and he really
wants to, but that means getting rid of Bella for a little while. I
was trying to come up with an idea and I thought of babysitting.  Do
you think you could talk to Ms. Ryan about asking Bella to watch her
daughter say from about 4:00 p.m. on Friday until 8:00 p.m.?  I would
really appreciate it if you could.  You and Ms. Ryan and her daughter
are invited too, of course.  Thank you.
