Target, McKnight Road, North Hills.
A young husband and wife are with their three children, two boys about four or five years old and a little girl about six. The boys are each holding a small, colorful plastic handbag, meant to carry a child’s lunch:
Boy #1: Are these bags or purses?
Girl: Purses.
Boy #1: [ecstatic] Look at our purses!
Dad: Ahhh, I don’t know if…
Boy #1: We’re gonna get purses! Look at our pretty purses!
[The family walks away, Boy #1 skipping and swinging his purse.]
