This little genius is Chekov. Her name is this involved joke. Chekov’s Gun is “don’t show a gun in act 1 unless it’s going to be fired in act 3”. My son and I generalized this (Chekov’s skill, Chekov’s fast car, Chekov’s ex)
On Father’s Day he came home and said “someday you might need a cat.”

How Québécoise say “I am upset and would like to discuss it with the you”. There was more, but it was in French and seemed to largely involve Catholic things (what is a tabarnak? I’m an agnostic cultural neopagan. Is it like, a field?) I don’t understand.
