Scene: Morning. Hosea is getting ready to leave for work. Wife is sitting in bed recovering from foot surgery a few days ago.
Wife: Have you seen yesterday's newspaper? I had it here for a little while yesterday and then it disappeared.
Hosea: "A little while"? It was on your bed all day. When you finally fell asleep last night I scooped it up ... I think I recycled it.
Wife: It wasn't on my bed "all day"! Just since Leia came over to visit me.
Hosea: [peevishly] Oh stop it. You don't have to contradict everything I say. Just let it go.
Wife: I'm not contradicting everything you say ....
