Reminds me of the van that got stopped at a checkpoint and one guy gets out of the car and pleads with the soldiers to let them through even though a few do not have any ID. They are on their way to a family wedding, see, and it is a huge celebration and please could they get through. the family would be most upset if they could not celebrate together.

Meanwhile….another guy gets out of the car and continues to plead with the soldiers to let them through. They are on their way to a family funeral, see, and it is a huge family mourning event and please could they get through. the family would be most upset if they could not mourn together.

ahhh, the clarity!
