Eddie: No, grandma. Dad took Waldo instead of me. Can you believe that?
Harriette: [unsympathetic] Yes! Eddie, your father left you three messages for you and you never called him back.
Eddie: It's not fair.
Harriette: [still unsympathetic towards Eddie's selfishess] Fair? Was it fair that you stood your father up for bowling? And what about the car show last Saturday? Your father waited at the Box Office for an hour.
