Saturday nite hi-jinks

I'm in my room minding my own business and I hear someone screaming "AJ!!!!" from outside. A few minutes later, the yelling still hasn't stopped, so I head outside to investigate. Turns out my landlady has locked herself out. Actually, the door was unlocked, but the doorknob was seemingly jammed. My landlady was trying to wake up her two kids by screaming and banging on their bedroom windows. Unfortunately, the kids slept like rocks despite our best attempts. Ringing the doorbell, calling their phone and honking my car horn.....all futile attempts to wake these kids up. I went downstairs to rig an atomic bomb because surely that would've woke these kids up. When I came back up, my landlady was exiting the front door because she somehow opened the door. Turns out the screws on the doorknob were a bit loose. This caused the door bolt to slide slightly out into the door jamb, thus stopping the door from opening properly. D'oh.
