Mama: “Lulu, did you steal this plastic drain cleaner?”
Lulu: “The what now?”
Mama: “This plastic drain cleaner right here.”
Lulu: “Never seen it before in my life. Maybe it was one of the cats.”
Mama: “Really? Let’s go to the tape.”
Lulu: “Oh, THAT plastic drain cleaner.”
Mama: “Well, I’m glad you brought it to me instead of chewing it up and swallowing it.”
Later …
Chaplin: “Tough break about Mama taking that drain cleaner away before you could chew it up properly.”
Lulu: “Well she gave me a fish skin in trade for it so it worked out pretty well, actually.”
Soon …

That was the best of both…mom got her evil drain cleaner back….cause I don’t think you would want to suffer the consequences of chewing *that* up…and a fish skin?? Wow, we need to have a chat with petcretary! You know, last night *she* was using our long plastic drain cleaner in our tub and sink…was there ESP at work??

We would trade almost anything for a fish skin. That Chaplin is going to get in trouble we bet.
