the adventure of the dish network boy

Mary: Sitting at home, working
[Knock on the door]
Mary: Answers door and sees a young boy with a Dish Network clipboard
Dish Network Boy: Hi, do you have Dish Network
Mary: No, we just have basic t.v.- you know the free kind and that is all we are really interested in
Dish Network Boy: What? Free t.v.? I don’t understand?
Mary: You know, the free basic channels, like 2, 4, 5
Dish Network Boy: Sorry I have no idea what you are talking about- but when will your parents be home?
Mary: My parents?
Dish Network Boy: Ya, like 5 or 6?
Mary: Ya, they should be home around then
Door closes…awkwardness remains on both sides of the door
