2:47 AM. The drill starts upstairs.
He can't sleep, so he nudges the slider on his blanket. Every click is one note: a kick and a snare between the drill bursts, then xylophone and piano. Upstairs hears it, knocks back, and the two of them jam through the floor. Then the drill stops, the hammer knocks Thank-you-neighbor, and Pi answers with the same three notes.
What would you knock back?
