Deshawn: Excuse me. I think I left my jacket in the gym yesterday. It's dark blue with a white stripe on the sleeve.

Ms. Lozano: Everything left in the gym goes to the lost and found box by the nurse's office. But that box gets emptied every Friday, and anything nobody picks up is given to a clothing drive.

Deshawn: But today is Friday! Is it too late?

Ms. Lozano: The volunteers come for the box at three o'clock, and it's only two fifteen. Go now, and check the bottom of the box. Jackets always end up underneath everything.

Deshawn: Thank you! My grandma gave me that jacket for my birthday.

Choose the best answer.
