"Gramma, what's 'rogue'?"
"Here, let me look it up on the internet. Let's see..."
Gramma: "H'mm, that explains a lot. Here, there's more."
"So is that why Cindersara quit her job as governor, Gramma? Because she had gone rogue."
"Something like that. But politics is full of rogues, honey."
"But Gramma, what happens if you start going rogue and you don't want to go into politics? Is there medication or something?"
"Oh, that would be too boring. Why are you reading that book, anyway? It will stunt your growth."
"Hi, Kelly!"
"Oh, hi, David."
"Wow, good taste in books."
"You think so?"
"Sure, it's a riveting read. A rare anthropological study of the Cinderella complex in a fragmenting oil-based society."
"Well, there is that."
