Hello Barbara, how was the opera? Of course. Norma, be a dear and take that paint in the kitchen. Alright, Barbara, I’m alone. Yes, he and I talked after you left. No, Bob’s asleep. I mean, not asleep, he’s–
Praying. In church. Which I call “sleeping.” Because our minister is boring. I don’t tell jokes very well. Well, what do you want from us? I need to speak with my husband first. When he returns from church. Certainly.
Well. Wasn’t that lovely? Goodbye, Barbara.
What? What was lovely?
SRALFOOMP.

Bob wouldn’t take well to us handling this without him.
I think she’ll feel less confronted this way.
ALATACAH,SGTUWSGFL.
As long as there’s a complaint against her, she’s going to use whatever she’s got for leverage.
Well. Sometimes paperwork is misplaced. It’s not unheard of.
WRGTDT? WCTB.
We’re really going to do this? Without consulting the boys.
