Busted!

Scene: John, Mark and Arthur pull into the driveway after Christmas gift shopping. Arthur has passed out in the car seat during the twenty block trip home.

John (turning off the ignition): "Honey, the child's asleep; you know what this means?"

Mark (from the backseat of the car): "Uh, no."

John: "Cookies!!"


(re-wind to earlier that day)


Scene: John stumbles out of the bedroom and into the kitchen where Mark is feeding Arthur nutritious oatmeal.

Arthur (upon seeing John reach behind a pile of gifts on the table and pull out a cookie): "Cookie!"

Mark: "Honey, are you modeling good eating habits for the child?"

Arthur: "Cookie!"
