Missing the point

Samwise* comes up to Daddy's Little Princess and says, "Frodo** and I are running away. You and Daddy need to take us in the van to Grammy and Grandpa's."

I interrupted, "Um, if you're running away, you need to go by yourselves, I can't drive you."

Frodo objects: "But we're not allowed to ride our bikes on the street. We're too young. It's too far to walk, so..."

Samwise adds on, "Yeah, to take us to Grammy's and pick us up tomorrow at 4, because we're running away."
