Transcript:

Charlie Brown stands next to Patty, who is sitting in the chair and reading. He looks at her as she asks,"Charlie Brown, see what time it is, please?"

He walks down the hallway.

He looks at the clock which is sitting on a cabinet with a vase of flowers behind it. He is puzzled.

He smiles and looks up at her with his hands outstretched, holding his right hand slightly higher than his left one. She looks at him and says,"Ten minutes to three? All right, thank you"
