WOMAN: Going in here. Actually, you have
a treat. You like marshmallows?
CHILD 1: Yes.
WOMAN: Do you want to have a seat? Let's get comfortable.
The deal is, you can eat this marshmallow now,
or you can wait until I come back and I'll give you two marshmallows.
If you decide to change your mind, that's fine, okay?
CHILD 1: I'm waiting.
WOMAN: I'm going to push you in a little bit more.
I'll be back in a few minutes. [ONE MINUTE PAUSE]
CHILD 2: You want to have two marshmallows?
CHILD 3: Yes. CHILD 2: Then don't eat the marshmallow.
WOMAN: Hey, Lola, how did you do?
LOLA: Good, I was waiting.
WOMAN: You were waiting? Good job.
Here's your second marshmallow.
LOLA: Thank you.
WOMAN: You didn't eat your marshmallow,
now you get another one.
CHILD 4: You took a little bit too long.
WOMAN: I know. I'm sorry.
Do you think your mom or dad would eat
the first marshmallow or do you think they would wait like you did?
CHILD 5: Well, my dad would eat the first marshmallow and my mom would patiently wait.
CHILD 6: I think my dad would eat it right away.
CHILD 3: I think he would eat the marshmallow.
CHILD 6: I think she would try the best as she could to wait.
CHILD 5: I chose to wait because patience is good.
