Imogen: Liam, what do you want to be when you grow up?

Liam: I don't know.

Imogen:  You don't know???

Liam:  I want to be a unicorn.

Imogen:  You can't be a unicorn!

Liam: Why not?

Imogen:  Because unicorns aren't real.

Liam:  They'll be real when I become one.

Imogen:  Liam.  It's not like a Fairy Godmother is going to come along and turn you into a unicorn.

Liam:  Why not?

Imogen, exasperated:  Because Fairy Godmothers aren't real!  Unicorns aren't real!

(pause)

Imogen:  Well, except for water unicorns.  They're real.
