The Major Award Delivery Scene

[the Old Man reads a side of the box with the prize that he won]
The Old Man: Aaah! "Fra-GEE-leh!" It must be Italian!
Mother: Uh, I think that says FRAGILE, honey.
The Old Man: Huh? Oh, yeah.

*******************************************************************

The Old Man: Get the glue.
Mother: We're out of glue.
The Old Man: You used up all the glue on purpose!
