Me: “Can I help you?”

Mother: “Yeah. My daughter is doing a report on Shakespeare, so we need to buy the book.”

Me: “Great, I can help you with that. Which play is she studying?”

Mother: “[Daughter], which Shakespeare play are you studying?”

Daughter: “There’s more than one?”

Mother: “Uh… yeah, sweetie! He wrote a lot! What is the story about?”

Daughter: “Ugh. It had some guy called Romeo trying to ask out some girl called Juliet, but I don’t know what it’s called.”

The mother looks at me with a pained expression.

Me: “I think I know which one that is…”
