A and B are out having a stroll in a local park.

"Bet you can't do it!" B dares.

"Try me."

A is high on a tree branch, daring to climb higher.

"Hey, uh, A?"

"What? Finally regretting your choice of words?"

"Uhhhh... not exaclty, but i think you might..."

"...What's there??" Her voice bwgins to panic.

"...A spider..."

At the top of her lungs, A cries, "MOVE THE SPIDER!!"

B hysterically laughing by the base of the tree yells back, "Just come down, dammit!"

"No way!" She roars back.

"I'll call the police if you keep this up any longer..."

"Screw the police, I'll fight them!"

He takes a final calm attempt before 'calling the cops', "I have cookies..." he says in a taunting way.

A stops the whining in a sudden, gazing at the cookies. She carefully climbs down each branch until she meets him at the base of the tree, silently grabbing a cookie and nibbling on it, "I could've taken the wrath of the police..."

"I know."
