(Driving home from zoo in bumper-to-bumper freeway traffic.)

Elian: Is this the way home mama?

Mama: Yep, we're going home?

Elian: Is this the way home mama?

Mama: Uh huh, this way!

Elian: Mama, is this the way home?

Mama: Yes, we're going home now. This way.

Elian: Is this the way home?

Mama: Yes, honey, this is the way home.

Elian: Is this the way home?

Mama: (Silence)

Elian: Mama, is this the way home?

Mama: Yep.

Elian: Is this the way home, Mama?

Mama: Yes.

Elian: Mama, are we going home?

Mama: Uh huh.

Elian: Is this the way home?

Mama: Yes, honey. This is the way home. We are going home right now. This way. Because this is the way home. This way? This is the way our home is. It's this way. We are going home. We are going in that direction. The direction of our home. Which is this way.

Elian: Mama, are you angry because I keep saying something?
