Setting: shoestore in Winnetka Illinois, ca.1982. Mother comes in with girl who appears to be an early-grade school child, with a pacifier stuck in her mouth. The pacifier stays there while we try a number of shoes per mom's instructions. Finally Mom turns to daughter and asks, "which ones do you like". The kid takes out the pacifier, and, with voice and articulation that could have passed for an intelligent teenager, says:

"Actually, I prefer this pair myself".
