00014: MOTHER's Obvious Laziness

Hortense: ...then once we overthrew the evil government ruling the city in the 4th dimension, we rode a mystical giant ferret back home. Did you get all of that?
Hector: Sure. Can we go in the house now?
Hortense: Let's go!
Hector: Yay!
Hortense: The power STILL isn't on?
Hector: I can't see MOTHER anywhere. She must be out paying the bill.
Hey, get out of my bedroom! I'M SLEEPING!
Hortense: This is the kitchen.
MOTHER: WHAT PART OF SLEEPING DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?
