TIME: mid-afternoon
SCENE: kitchen of a family's home. Mother is loading dishwasher. Oldest son, Evan, is doing crafts at kitchen table. After a few minutes, the daughter, Addie, walks in and stands by mother at the dishwasher.
ADDIE: Speaking of swim pants....
MOTHER: Addie, nobody said the word "swim" or the word "pants". In fact nobody was talking.
ADDIE: Oh... [whispering] Evan, say "swim pants"!
EVAN: [without looking up in a monotone voice] Swim pants.
ADDIE: Speaking of swim pants, can you get out the sprinkler?
