Wyatt:
Hey, Pop.

Me:
Hi, guys.

Boone:
Why do you look all flat?

Me:
This is a video chat.

Boone:
I don't get it. Where are you?

Me:
I'm actually on the other side of the country. This is like a phone call, but you can see me on this computer screen.

Wyatt:
Okay. That's why you look smaller.

Boone:
It looks like television.

Me:
It is like television, sort of.

Boone:
So, you're with Elmo?

Me:
No, it's not—

Boone:
But, you said it was like television. Elmo's on television.

Wyatt:
Hey, bro. Elmo's over here on this screen.

Boone:
Elmo!

Me:
Guys... Can you turn off the TV?... Hey, guys...

Wyatt:
Quiet, pop. We're watching Elmo.

Me:
Come on. I don't know when I'm coming home. I miss you.

Boone:
What's the big deal? You're here on that screen.

Wyatt:
Yeah, dude. It's like you never left.

Me:
Don't you want to talk to me?

Boone:
Quiet. Elmo's on.
