Panel 1: (Desmond and Cedric are entering through the doorway. Desmond looks tired, waving hello. Cedric is smiling and holding out a whistle resembling a rubber duck, showing it to Helen. She is smiling and waving hello back, holding a piece of paper)
Cedric: “HI MOM, WE’RE BACK FROM THE ZOO. DADDY BOUGHT ME A TOY! LISTEN…”

Panel 2: (Cedric is closing his eyes, blowing the duck whistle. Helen is covering her ears, closing her eyes with a pained look)
Cedric is blowing the whistle: “QUAACK! QUACK! QUAAACK!”

Panel 3: (Cedric is holding the duck whistle, looking at it. Helen is signing only and pointing to Cedric, looking concerned)
Helen: “CEDRIC. HERE’S THE DEAL. YOU CAN ONLY BLOW THAT THING AROUND DADDY… NOT ME.”

Panel 4: (Cedric is looking at Helen, pointing at his ear and holding the duck whistle. Helen is smiling, signing exactly, with her eyes closed)
Cedric: “BUT DADDY CAN’T HEAR IT.”
Helen: “EXACTLY!“
