My husband, preoccupied with self

Wife: Sweetheart, the plumber didn't make it on time to fix the leak by the gas cooker cylinder today.
Husband: uh, uh-huh.
Wife: so because the gas cylinder leaks there was fire ignition and explosion as a result of Gold trying to lit the gas cooker.
Husband: silent please. It is third down and goal to go.
