“Good night, Bobby, don’t let the bedbugs bite. I’m going to turn off the overhead light now.”
“But, Auntie, I’m afraid of the dark.”
“You won’t have to be any more, Bobby. I bought you a surprise yesterday. Want me to go get it?”
“Yes!” (eager bed bouncing and sound of retreating footsteps)
(sound of footsteps returning)
“Okay, Bobby, I’ve got it right here. Hold on a second…where’s that outlet? Got it! Now, let me get this light bulb…all right, you ready, sweetie?”
“Yes!” (more eager bed bouncing)

(scream, followed by loud crying) “Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off! I want my Mommy!”
