Phone Call From Mother

A man answers the phone and has the following conversation:

- Yes, mother, I've had a hard day. Gladys has been most difficult - I know I ought to be more firm, but it is hard.

Well, you know how she is.

- Yes, I remember you warned me. I remember you told me that she was a vile creature who would make my life miserable and you begged me not to marry her.

- You were perfectly right.

- You want to speak with her? All right.

He looks up from the telephone and calls to his wife in the next room:

- Gladys, your mother wants to talk to you!
