2. Neither Sam or David like to set up the table for dinner. They each toss a coin to decide who will set the table. If both coins show heads, David sets the table. If both coins show tails, Sam sets the table. However, if the coins show a head as well as a tail, both Sam and David set the table together.

What is the probability that David will have to set the table alone two days in a row?
