[hands Mr. Conductor an envelope] This came in the mail for you today. It has no address on it, but I guess it's for you.
[opens the envelope] Let's see. Who could be writing to me?
[he extracts a letter from the envelope and reads it]
Oh, no. No! This can't be happening! No way!
What's the matter?
My sister's coming for a visit.
You have a sister?
Well, I know we had the same parents, and we grew up in the same house. But somewhere along the way, my little sister was raised by laughing hyenas.
Little sister? How little is she?
Oh, she's grown up now, but you never know it.
What do you mean?
Well, you see how neat and polite I am? She's messy and rude. She got away with everything when we were kids.
Like what?
One night at dinner, she took off her shoes and socks and put her feet in the mashed potatoes! UGH! Another time, she took my drawings and made paper airplanes out of them!
Well, she was younger then. She wouldn't do that now.
Oh? What about the time she threw my favorite mittens in the toilet?!
Maybe she was just trying to have some fun.
She had fun, all right. She laughed about it for weeks.
Still, it's nice when relatives come to visit, remember?
