the caterpillar vs the city boy

My mom found a caterpillar crawling at our patio one day, and being caterpillar-phobic, she was close to hysterics. Pointing at it, my mom was yelling at my dad to get rid of it, since he was lazily sprawled on the bench.

Mom: Caterpillar!!!

Dad (barely looking up from the newspapers): Hmm? 

Mom: CATERPILLARRR!!! CAN'T YOU SEE IT???

Dad: Pilla?? What's that? 

He was feigning ignorance because he looked very reluctant when he finally put down the newspapers. 

Glancing back at my mom's disbelieving stare, he stated simply:

Well you can't blame me for not knowing what a caterpillar is, I'm a city boy.
