OT: The best line explaining why something is missing is ...

[Icebear]

Bill Cosby; "Why did you drink my soda that I told you not to touch?"
Kid; "I dun-no."

Cosby; "Why did you climb up on he shelf and get the cookie that I told you you couldn't have?"
Kid; "I was getting the cookie for you."

I have used both of those numerous times in sermons.
