It was Lorraine in her nightie and Mo in his cap. They'd just settled their brains for a long winter's nap in front of the television. When out in the lot there arose such a clatter, they sprang from their recliners to see what was the matter. Away to the window they flew like a flash, tore open the blinds and threw up the sash.

Hypnotized by the wings of the butterfly, and awed by the discovery of a terrible possibility in life, she sat for some time longer.
