## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A 65-year nap does wonders for perspective, at least for Hubert’s wife’s grandfather. After emerging from the ice, the patriarch insists the world hasn’t changed since 1904, forcing Hubert to spin increasingly frantic lies. The gag wears thin before the century even does.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, playful
