#Person1#: Listen, Karen, I need your help. I don't know anyone here yet. 
#Person2#: I'm glad to help you. What's wrong? 
#Person1#: My mother-in-law just went into the hospital in L. A. Hank and I will be flying there tonight. 
#Person2#: I'm sorry to hear it. What's wrong with her? 
#Person1#: Doctors aren't sure yet. But the real problem is Suzy. She has a bad cold, and we don't want to take her with us. But we don't know who can stay with her. 
#Person2#: You need a babysitter. 
#Person1#: Yes, I'd ask Jill, the girl I've had before, but I need someone overnight. Maybe even for two nights. 
#Person2#: I could have Suzy stay at my place. 
#Person1#: I don't want to do that to you, Karen. 
#Person2#: Why not? 
#Person1#: Your own kids would get Suzy's cold. I think it would be better to have a good babysitter here. But I don't know who to ask. I need someone more mature than Jill. It might even be for two or three days. 
#Person2#: I know who we can ask. There is a girl I know, Sara Ralston. She is 17, and she will usually take this kind of job. I know her from my church, and I trust her completely. 
#Person1#: I'd like to talk with her. This is short notice, I know. But Hank and I are leaving tonight. 
#Person2#: I'll get you her number. I hope she can do it. She is very responsible. 
#Person1#: I'm glad you know someone. I knew you would be the best person to ask about this. I don't want to insult Jill or her mother. I think Jill maybe could do it. But I'd rather have someone a little older. 
#Person2#: I'll go home and get Sara's number. I'll call her first myself. 
#Person1#: Great. Then call me and let me know if she's free. 
#Person1# asks Karen for help to find a mature babysitter for two or three days because #Person1# will fly to L.A. to see #Person1#'s mother-in-law in the hospital and has to leave Suzy, who has a cold, at home. Karen recommends Sara who is mature and responsible, and she will contact her.
