Ace and Grampy are sitting out on the steps of the front porch, talking while Grampy smokes a cigarette.
Grampy: I'd forgotten how clear the night sky can be here. Thank you for coming out to talk, Ace.
Ace: No problem.
Grampy: Want a puff?
Ace: No, thanks. I don't smoke.
Grampy: Good. It's a filthy habit. How close are you and my granddaughter?
Ace: We're really just friends, sir.
Grampy: Really? She tells me you've slept together.
Ace chokes. Grampy laughs.
Ace: ACK! *cough cough*
Grampy: Ha ha! Just pulling your leg, Ace. I have to confess that I'm a little relieved. I was sure that when she finally settled down, I'd be welcoming a new granddaughter instead of a grandson to the family.

It’s kind of wholesome and gently amusing. Let me see if I can find it again… yes, here it is:
