Boyfriend: I'm going out now. If you hear a beep, don't worry, it'll the be the smoke alarm. I can't get it to stop beeping. I put it in the cellar so it shouldn't bother you, but if you do hear it, don't be alarmed. Excuse the pun.
Girlfriend: Okay, no problem, have a lovely time. I'll see you when you get back.
(They kiss, grudgingly)
(Boyfriend strides away and the door slams shut)
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP (Already?) BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP (It's really loud considering it's down in the cellar) BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP (Hell, it's getting really annoying now) BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEE (Right that's it, I'm going down there) P BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP (Girlfriend slowly descends the dark, stinking stairs, reaches the night black cellar, clumsily gropes for the switch, and eventually relieves the suspense by allowing light to flood the dank room)
Little girl in the cellar: Beep Beep (grinning horribly) Beep Beep (now laughing powerfully) BEEP BEEP
