The context of the following conversation is others were going to the carnival, so bailey jumped through hoops to go to the event.:
Bailey says I didn't think I could make it to the carnival, but I managed to clear out my schedule and I can go now..
The friend responds I thought you had a ton of work to do..
Bailey responds I did, and I had to jump through a lot of hoops to finish everything before the carnival started. But I managed it..
The friend responds I'm glad you're coming along. I saved your ticket just in case..
