How much

Setting: Emma has just left the breakfast table to lie down on the couch. She is still recovering from a 24 hour bug that wreaked havoc on her tummy. Dad is covering her up with a blanket.
Emma: "Can I watch a little bit of TV?"
Dad: "As soon as Max is done with his breakfast."
Emma: "How much is that gonna take?"
Dad: "I don't know."
Emma: "Can you talk to Max?"
Dad: "Sure."
