We're about to eat dinner. Phone rings. It's for me. Dad tells me don't stay on too long, we're going to be eating.

A few minutes later I come down to dinner. Who was it? "Oh, it was a guy from University of Chicago trying to set up my interview." And what did you tell him? "I said I had to go, we're eating dinner."

You can guess their reaction.

Wait, that was confusing. I thought *you* told your parents that you told the interviewer "I have to go, we're eating dinner."

Yeah, I did. I didn't understand what Zach was referring to until you pointed out that there was another way to read it...
