@nite5: come on, please? just this once? ─ elizabeth!
please prompts / accepting
William puts on a show of considering it, but in reality, he's already made up his mind. While letting his child skip school is not the responsible parent decision, William is not a responsible parent. If doing so gains him favor with Elizabeth, allows him to spend time with her without having to inconvenience himself all that much...well, it will be a slow day at the restaurant tomorrow, anyway. Besides, what's a better way to teach his daughter what working really looks like? "Well, I suppose, just this once you could come with me to work..."
