[Mrs. Prevert is washing a stack of books in the sink.]
Mom! What are you doing?
Oh, hello Adam. I was just washing some dirty books I found in your father's closet.
Mom, you're ruining them!
(faking concern) Oh, am I, dear?
You're doing this on purpose, aren't you? I'm going to go tell Dad.
That's a good idea, dear. While you're at it, why don't you tell him that I just finished washing the dirty books I found in your closet. Your father would probably be very pleased to know that you have similar tastes in literature.
...Okay, maybe I won't then.
Wise move.
