April: Just a minute, guys! I gotta get new gloves....These ones are soaking! Elly: April! You left the front door wide open! We're not paying to heat the neighborhood, you know! What was that? April: What was what? Elly: You gave me "the look." April: What "look"? Elly: You know what I mean...the "oh, cheez, not this again...go stuff a sock in it" kind of look. Don't stand there like that! April: Like what? Elly: With your attitude. April: What "attitude"? I'm just standing here! How about if I lie down and look at the floor, ok? Elly: that does it! John: Why did your mother send you to your room, April? April: ...I left the front door open.
