Cheeky? Clever?

One afternoon, we brought the children to Mahkota Parade.  The children were sitting in their strollers.  As we pushed them up on an escalator (which is not advisable to do so), Elyse started the following conversation with Mommy and Ah Gong:-

Mommy:  Elyse, you are getting heavier.
Elyse:  Mommy, if I fell down with the stroller on you, then you will also fall down.  Then you will die lor.
Mommy:  Ya, if you fall on me, I will fall on Ah Gong.  Because Ah Gong is standing behind Mommy.  Then Ah Gong will also die lor.
Ah Gong:  Elyse, Ah Gong asks you a question.  If Mommy and you fell down, and Ah Gong can only save one person, who should Ah Gong save?
Without hesitation, Elyse answered:  You have to save Mommy first because Mommy fall down first.  Then you put Mommy down, and save me.

Of course, both Mommy and Ah Gong laughed to our hearts content.
