Oh Auntie Donna, please let AustinB come to the Royal Wedding with us. This is a once in a lifetime event. He didn't mean to do anything wrong, he was trying to protect you from the sneaky, devious trash can mice! They're very hard to find and harder to catch. It's also possible that he fell in there by accident. This time, please give him the benefit of the doubt and let him off house arrest.

Your friend,
Groucho
