Little Boy: What's the name of this game?
Dad: War.
Little Boy: I thought war was bad.
Dad: It is.
Little Boy: But we're playing war.
Dad: It's different. This is a card game, it happens to be called 'war'. But war, the kind that's real, that is bad.
Little Boy: But we're playing war.
Dad: Right.
Little Boy: But if war is bad, aren't we bad if we're playing war?
Dad: (pauses, sips coffee) Thing of it, you know what Alex, I just realized, I made a mistake. This game isn't called 'war', it's really 'highest number'.
Little Boy: Then what game is war?
Dad: There isn't a game, war.
Little Boy: But you said...
Dad: Finish your juice, pal. Mom is waiting for us.
