Missy: That doesn't seem fair.
George: Yeah, we should get something.
Meemaw: Fine. How much you want?
Missy: Five dollars.

Missy: Each.
Meemaw: That's pretty steep. How about I give you a buck apiece?
Georgie: Let's meet in the middle, three dollars each.
Meemaw: Now we're haggling. Let me ask you a question. If you break something today, are you prepared to cover the cost of that?
