Beverly Hillson arrives home exhausted from a 12-hour hospital shift to find her stepson sprawled on the couch. She asks him nicely to please pick up the table he's been eating on. He tells her he will, but she knows he's lazy and doesn't believe him. So Beverly leaves with a very interesting phrase “if you clean up, I'll empty your balls”. When she returns to the living room, she discovers that those had always been the magic words to get whatever she wanted from her stepson.
