Knock! Knock! Heard at the bathroom door...
'Daddy', said daughter? (Quizzically)
'What', said father? (Irritatingly)
'Can I go in', said daughter? (Urgently)
'No', said father! (Firmly)
'Why', said daughter? (Distraughtingly)
'Take a wild Guess…', said father. (Exasperatingly)
'Well, You're not showering, shaving or brushing you're teeth', said daughter. (Thinking thoroughly)
'That's good… you're eliminating possibilities', said father. (Tauntingly)
'Unh, ...OK, fine', said daughter…(Resignedly)
'So now you know what I'm doing here', said father…(Triumphantly)
'YES, TAKING MY PLACE', said daughter! (LOUDLY)
