Cousin Abby is wandering thoughtlessly across the lawn, drifting past Miranda, whose intolerance for ill-behaved children is well-known. Abby takes notices of Miranda’s rather wide rump, and administers an ungainly yet somehow swift kick to her target. As she does so, she narrates: “and then the angry dwarf kicked her in the butt!” We look on horrified. She has been acting out this movie line for weeks.
That night, as the band announces its closing song, the drunken dancers, including Abby’s mother, protest. And without sobriety holding her back, Aunt Loren lands an uncoordinated kick to the lead singer’s thigh.
