Baby Blues

Melinda:
Ooh, padded walls. The kids have wanted these ever since we visited Grandpa.

Wanda:
Yeah, Darryl thought the house should be safer.

Melinda:
Carl's a safety nut, too. He puts the loaded guns on the top shelf -- no exceptions. You can't be too careful with your most precious possessions.

Zoe:
Ah-choo!

Wanda:
Uh-oh. I think Mommy better take your temperature.

Melinda:
It's just a sneeze.

Wanda:
Yeah, and before I would have let it pass, but Darryl's got me spooked. Here we go, Zoe.

Melinda:
Oh, you do it _that_ way.

[Wanda hums]

Melinda:
So, you see the Richard Gere movie?

Wanda:
No. What made you think of that?

Melinda:
I don't know.

Wanda:
[pause] Wasn't Richard Gere in Deliverance?

Melinda:
I think that was Ned Beatty.

Wanda:
Ohh, that's right.

Melinda:
[pause] By the way, how long is the Chunnel?

Wanda:
About 50 kilometers.

Melinda:
Huh.
