   Patricia: What are you doing?


 
  Luis: I’m setting up a practical joke for Bobby. I can’t wait to see the look on his face when he walks outside and finds his bike in pieces. It’ll be the best prank 1 ever!
 
  Patricia: You’re not really going to take apart his bike, are you?
 
  Luis: I’ll let you in on the joke. He’ll just be looking at spare parts. I’ve hidden his bike in the garage.
 
  Patricia: He’s really going to freak out when he thinks that you’ve run over his bike with the car, though. I think this is more cruel than mischievous 2.
 
  Luis: Lighten up! When he realizes he’s the butt 3 of the joke, he’ll think it’s hilarious 4, trust me.
 
  Patricia: Couldn’t you just play some other kind of practical joke, maybe with a whoopee cushion?
 
  Luis: A whoopee cushion? That’s child’s play. This practical joke is worthy 5 of a master prankster!
