Lisa and Jack are talking about Jack’s family portrait on the wall.
Lisa: Oh, is this your family?
Jack: It is. These are my grandparents at their old house in Thailand.
Lisa: Do they live there?
Jack: No, they were just visiting. They moved to the US when my dad and aunt were babies.
Lisa: Wow, I didn’t know that.
Jack: Yeah. My grandfather was a doctor in Thailand, but when they moved here, he had to work as a cleaner.
Lisa: Your dad’s a doctor, right?
Jack: He is. He wanted to follow in his dad’s footsteps. And those are my parents.
Lisa: That’s really inspiring.
Jack: Yes, my sister and I wanna be doctors, too. I guess it’s in our blood.
Lisa: Hey, are you in this picture? Is this you?
Jack: No, that’s my cousin. I’m over here.
Lisa: That’s your mom!
Jack: Yep, pregnant with me!
