Craig wakes up at home with a huge hangover he can't believe. He crawls out of bed, forces himself to open his eyes, and the first thing he sees is what looks like a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them, a single red rose!
Craig sits down and sees his clothes in front of him, all clean and pressed. He looks around the room and sees that it's in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror, and notices a note on the table: "Sweetie, your breakfast is on the stove. I left early to go shopping. Love and kisses, Kelly."
He stumbles downstairs to the kitchen and, sure enough, there is hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His teenage son, Eric, is also at the table, eating. Craig asks, "Eric, what the hell happened last night?"
"Well," Eric says, "you came home after 3 o'clock in the morning, drunk and out of your mind. You broke some furniture, puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door."
Craig asks, "So, why is everything in such perfect order, so clean, and breakfast on the table waiting for me?"
His son replies, "Oh that! ... Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave me alone, lady, I'm married!"
