[Saturday evening. Mia is at university. She is calling her dad.]
Mia: Hi, Dad! What are you doing?
Dad: I'm cooking dinner. Your mum is working late today.
Mia: You're cooking? You never cook.
Dad: I know. I'm trying something new. It's Grandma's fish soup.
Mia: Oh no. Is it going well?
Dad: Well, the kitchen is getting very hot. And the dog is looking at me strangely.
Mia: Dad, what is that noise?
Dad: That's the smoke alarm. It's singing.
Mia: Dad! Open the window!
Dad: I'm opening it now. Okay. The smoke is going out.
Mia: And the soup?
Dad: The soup is now a fish cake. A black one.
Mia: Dad, please order a pizza.
Dad: Too late. The dog is eating the fish cake. I think he likes it.
