"Hello?"
"Hi...Marge? Hi, this is" -- couldn't catch the name -- "from the New York Times subsription office, and I was just calling to wish you a happy New Year -- "
"Wait, this isn't Marge. This is her daughter."
"Um-hmm." (sounds very unconvinced) "Is your...mother or father home?"

"Um-hmm." (sounds very unconvinced) "Marge, thank you for your honesty. Goodbye."
