kids say the darndest things: No. 12

Recently there was a minor mishap in the basement concerning a certain expensive home theater speaker - the same speaker that dear daddy referred to when he told all three kids to "Never, ever, ever go near the speakers!".

So, said speaker gets toppled as a superhero kid catapults himself from the back of the sofa. Dear daddy confronts children about the broken speaker and says "What is the one rule we have about the basement?" (Note: dear dad is looking for a response that has the word speaker in it somewhere....) In response my son says, "Turn out the lights????"

Not the right answer, but an eco-friendly answer - so one point for that.
