An Elaborate Lie

Legend is sitting on a camp chair beside his grandpa.

Grandpa - "What happened to your foot, Legend? You got a scratch."
Legend - "Yeah. Ouch, my foot. It got hurt."
Grandpa - "How did that happen?"

Legend hops off his camp chair to pick up a pine cone.
He holds the pine cone next to his sore foot in demonstration.
Legend - "I step on a porcupine and it poke me. Hurt. Porcupine hurt my foot, step on it. Poke."

Grandpa looks to me, amused but not quite buying it.
Me - "Legend got new sandals that rubbed his foot there."
