He was in an excellent mood, though physically exhausted.
With absolutely no desire to cook for himself, he called Lilian and asked whether they'd be home that evening. If they were, he wanted to come over and mooch a meal. Lilian happily told him to come.
Originally, Lilian and Morrison were supposed to go back to the Mo family home for dinner on Saturday night. But since Karl had gone off to propose, they postponed the gathering to Sunday instead—making it a celebration of Karl's successful proposal as well.
Between Morrison and Lilian, the one who actually cooked was Morrison. After finishing his call with Bert, Lilian went straight into the kitchen and instructed Morrison, who was already cooking,
"Make a few extra dishes. My brother's coming over for dinner."
Morrison protested unhappily.
"So just because he's coming to eat, I have to cook more dishes? If he's here to freeload, then he can just eat whatever I make."
