Location: Dreamer's Respite, WA

Amber: -And that was Gold Heart Six with their new hit single Bring the Music Back, which they certainly have brought back.

Toby: Until now, because like all good things, music must come to an end!

Amber: Yes, true. Welcome back to the Amber and Toby show. Glad you're all tuning in to Broadcast 100.3 once again for the best of banter and heartfelt advice.

Toby: Speaking of advice, I was wondering, have you heard of any new cold or sickness going around? I think I've caught something but I'm not sure what.

Amber: You know, I was just thinking you looked a little sick today. Not that they would know, of course, but… (both laugh.) Have you been to the doctor?

Toby: Yeah, and she said I was just sick and that I shouldn't worry.

Amber: Well, if you're still well enough to come in for work, I bet it can't be too bad, right?

Toby: Sure, but I've got a bad headache. Like something is trying to poke out of my skull.

Amber: That would explain why you're not bouncing off the walls like usual.

Toby: Come on! Do you really need to roast me right now?

Amber: Hey, laughter is the best medicine, right?

Toby: (Sighs) Fine, good point.

Amber: Have you been having any other symptoms? Sorry to bore everybody listening, but maybe you'll need to watch out for this.

Toby: No, I don't think so. But you said I looked sick?

Amber: Yeah, you're a little paler than usual, and your eyes are a bit watery... otherwise, I think you're fine. Maybe you just need some more sunlight?

Toby: You think after last summers... incident I want to stand out in the sun?

Amber: You mean the time you fell asleep at the beach and forgot sunscreen and-

Toby: Yep, that's the one.

Amber: That was a riot!

Toby: Sure it was.

Amber: Honestly, I'm no doctor, but I think it's just the flu or something.

Toby: Yeah, I hope so.

Amber: What I hope is that it isn't contagious. I don't need you cooties in me.

Toby: Is that really the best comment you've got?

Amber: Yeah, you're right. After five years with you, I'm already immune to your cooties, so that's a moot point.

Toby: Do you not have any sympathy? The only reason I didn't take a sick day is because I knew you couldn't carry this show on your own!

Amber: Now that's just low, Toby. I can't believe you. (Toby groans.) Anyway, if you see Toby out on the streets, be sure to stay away, just in case.

Toby: That isn't helping!
