Dick: Wait a minute. How did you fall into a vat of chocolate, anyway? Where was this vat of chocolate?

Tom: It was on my way home from school. I would pass by this vat of chocolate.

Dick: But wasn't there some kind of railing or something, to keep people from falling in the chocolate?

Tom: Well, um, you see, I used to kind of walk on that railing...

Dick: And you fell in the chocolate.
