when the scene opens, what do Rose and Cory talk about?

Rose is hanging laundry on the line and Cory comes in from his football practice. Rose warns him that Troy “like to had a fit with you running out of here this morning without doing your chores.” Cory asks if Rose told Troy about the recruiter and Rose says that she did but that Troy “ain’t said nothing too much.” Rose insists that he go and start his chores and make some lunch.
