Freddie said: Why? What happened??

Manuel was looking for work. He walked up to a house and asked the owner if
he had any odd jobs that needed doing. The house owner said the porch at the

A little later, Manuel returned to the front door and said the job was done.
After being paid , and as he was walking away, Manuel said: By the way. that
