E’Clair: Guess I’d better do some laundry, if we expect to have clean undies, eh, Lovechild? *chuckle*

Lovechild: Well… yes, maman, I suppose that’s a logical projection –

 

 

E’Clair: You’re so funny, sweetie, when you’re being serious – it’s just laundry day!

Lovechild: My point, exactly! Um, maman, I think there’s something, or someONE in the washer –

 

 

E’Clair: SomeONE, you say? **opens washer** Oh! –

Lovechild: Who is it?

 

 

E’Clair: Oh my, it’s the Sparrow Sisters – what ARE you girls doing in the washer?
