Dos personas con sus camas en la misma casa. Espero que ellos no son familia. Ewwwww.
It sounds like a line for Rob or Laura Petrie rejected by the censors.

So why exactly is, "Will we sleep in your bed or my bed?' a wrong answer when, "Shall we sleep in your bed or my bed?" is acceptable?
Edit: three years later, I turn to Google for insight. From Oxford dictionaries: The traditional rule is that shall is used with first person pronouns (i.e. I and we) to form the future tense, while will is used with second and third person forms (i.e. you, he, she, it, they). For example: I shall be late.

Because the 'will' indicates future action. This is a little more 'in the now', if you catch my drift ^_^ Therefore, 'shall' (or 'do') is the correct word!

'Shall' only is correct, for the simple future. The correct convention is that, for the simple future 'shall' is used for first person singular and plural; 'will' being used for the other persons. For the emphatic (or 'coloured' [Fowler]) future, the usage is reversed. "I will do it" meaning, "I will that it be done".
my grandfather ( multilingual) explained about the German guy swimming off Brighton beach shouting ' I will drown and no-one shall save me! ' - so no-one did.

Also, what is the appropriate translation of "Hey baby, do you have fries with that shake?" These two sentences would appear to go together....
Imagine having the statement 'la mujer toca mi camisa' and then this one. Lol
I was showing my brother Duolingo, and he thought that Lingots were called DINGOS give him some DINGOS
