The Scene: It is late evening. Both children are in bed for the night (more or less), and Joey and Andrea are both sitting in a warmly-lit family room. Andrea is devoting much (too much) attention to a Sudoku puzzle. Joey is reading a book about Israel. Classical piano music fills the air.
Andrea (looking up in shock): What's this? You actually chose to play classical music?
Joey (in a high-pitched, self-protecting tone) : You were playing Sudoku, I was reading... it felt like an intellectual moment!
Andrea (rolls eyes): You're a dork.
Joey (fake whimpering): What?!
Andrea (laughing): But a very cute dork!
The two tease each other for a few more minutes (the subject of which is not worthy of mention). Strange noises proceed from Joey. Andrea laughs/cries in shock and disbelief. A moment later, similar noises proceed from her. Cue explosive laughter.
Joey: The music definitely can NOT make this an intellectual moment anymore!
End Scene.
