Safety First

Brighton: Daddy, what objects in the yard to you not care if I shoot them with a flamethrower?
Bo: Wh-what!?!? None of them. Flamethrowers are very dangerous.
Brighton: Well, I'll just just shoot the tops off so they won't burn too much.
Bo: I don't want you shooting anything with a flamethrower!
Brighton: Where can we buy a flamethrower? Do I have enough money?
Bo: I'm pretty sure you cannot buy one anywhere. It's a war thing. It's bad.
Brighton: Daaaarn, where can I get a flamethrower? Oh, maybe I can use Felix's.

[in fact, the conversation went on much longer than this. I'm worried.]
