Mom was reading Corwin a book that talked about scientists while I was trying to rescue a car for Charles. The car had fallen behind the headboard and Charles was laying on the floor in tears over it. While I was looking back to see if I could spot the errant vehicle, Mom was reading the section to Corwing about “mad scientists”. The book claimed that there were no such things but I piped up “Yes there are! Don’t believe her!”. I bent back down to continue my search when I felt the rap of a knuckle on my head. I figured Mom was indicating my lack of helpfulness but it was in fact Corwin who had decided to explain that to me. I complained to Mom about this and her response was “who do you think he learned it from?”. No sympathy at all! She’s so mean.
