Dash: "Mom, I have money in my pocket! No -- MONIES!" (he pulls out a few coins)
Mom: "Wow, Dash, what are you going to do with all of your monies?"
Dash, sweetly: "Mom, I could buy YOU something with it!"
Mom: "That's so sweet! What would you like to buy me?"
Dash: "I could buy you a fire extinguisher."
Mom, stumped: "Well, that would be... nice."
Dash: "Yeah! And when we blow something up in the backyard, we could use the fire extinguisher to put out the explosion!"
Mom: "Dash..." (interrupted)
Dash: "NO! We could BLOW UP THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER!"
