Dad: [name] is sitting over there! He ordered ice cream. Should I go talk to him?
Me: He's suing you. Are you allowed to talk to him directly?
Dad: But he's still working for me! He's working for me on the X case and suing me over the Y case.
Me: How is he supposed to get you his report? Like he sends it via counsel?
Dad: I got it in the mail. Should I go over and say hi? What's the protocol, honey?
Mom: *heavy sigh*
Dad: I'm going to go talk to him. *leaves*
Me: If Dad grabs a spoonful of his ice cream and then runs away, we'll know the conversation's gone badly.
Mom: Let's just leave. We came in separate cars, anyway.
