can't catch these words....

Hi,

I badly need your help again....

Please listen to this audio (just 10 or so seconds long!):

The kid is asking his dad for allowance :-)

KID: Yes! Thirteen dollars!
FATHER: Thirteen dollars? Why do I own you that much? Just seems like I paid you the other day?
KID: No, You forget every Saturday and ???? (can’t catch!)

If you could help me with the missing few words at the end of the dialog ?
