He's got a point

Mark was telling me about his substitute teacher at dinner last night. I asked if his regular teacher, Mr. Robinson, was sick.

"No," Mark said. "He had jury duty today. But he'll be back tomorrow."

I nodded. "Jury duty, huh? He might be out for a long time if he gets picked."

Mark shook his head. "No, he'll be back tomorrow."

"How do you know?" I asked.

Mark stared at me like I was an idiot. "Just look at him," he replied. "He's got green hair. Who's gonna pick him for their jury?"

And...he's got a point.

"You're right," I said. "I'm sure he'll be back tomorrow."
