Cloe comes down the steps with her hand clinched shut...

C: Adelyn!! You have to pay me dollars!! You broke my bracelet!!
A: No, I didn't. 
C: Yes you did, Ada! You have to pay me dollars!
A: It was an accident. I was trying to take it off the Barbie. 
C: You did it on purpose!! You have to pay me dollars. 
A: It wasn't even yours. It was Mommy's. 
M: Actually it was Aunt Sammy's. 
C: YOU BROKE MY SAMMY BRACELET!! You have to pay me dollars!
A: Cloe, I'm not paying you dollars for something that doesn't belong to you. 
C: Sammy gave it to me! YOU have to pay me DOLLARS!!!
A: Cloe...
C: No Ada. I taking dis (her handful of beads) to the store to give to the lady and tell her you broke my bracelet and tell her you're going to pay dollars for my new one. 
A: How about I make you a new bracelet?
C: Just pay me dollars!!! 

Adelyn gets the beads out, puts them on the living room floor and goes back for string. Cloe hides the beads
A: Cloe, where is it?
C: It's hide and seek! (angry voice)
