3:57 Whose
4:40 Where, When, and Why in adjective clauses

NOTE: Not all sources recognize WHERE, WHEN, and WHY as relative pronouns, but for our purposes I think it's easier to include them in our list of pronouns we use to form adjective clauses. You'll also hear these three words called relative adverb when they're used to form adjective clauses.
