I think we ought to make her something!
gpt
Well, what? asked Sarah.
human
I most know she'd love to have one of Tootles' kittens, but I don't suppose we could mail that, could we?
gpt

human
Those kittens will be the death of me yet, and what they'd do to sick folks in a sanatorium, I'm sure I don't know and don't want to.

What'll we make Mother?
human

human

gpt
I like blue,

human
