Monday: black or brown?

Scene: it's time to go to the store

Amanda: Isaac, can you bring your shoes over here?
Isaac brings one of Amanda's black shoes over.  This isn't uncommon and actually quite nice.
Amanda: Thanks.  Can you bring the other shoe over?
Isaac dawdles.  He finds an almost empty water bottle near the shoes and puts it in Amanda's shoe.  He takes the cap off the water bottle.
Amanda: Don't get water in my shoe!
Isaac gets a few drips of water in Amanda's shoe.
Isaac goes in time out and is not happy about it.  At all.

Amanda puts her brown shoes on while explaining why she isn't going to wear the black shoes.  Isaac continues to be inconsolable because she is wearing the brown shoes.  Isaac goes and puts Amanda's black shoe on the humidifier, his go-to drier.  (He puts it sole down, so it doesn't really help anything.)  He brings it back, expecting her to wear the black shoes.  When she doesn't, the crying gets more insistent.  Isaac tries to take off Amanda's brown shoes so the black shoes can go on.  This all takes place over about ten minutes.

Amanda finally gets her coat on and then Isaac's coat and carries him out to the car, shoeless and heartbroken.  She goes back in to get Isaac's shoes and gets one on him.  He says he doesn't want the other one on and as she starts to back out he immediately changes his mind.

Amanda gets in the car, feeling rather satisfied that 1) she won the battle and 2) they're finally on their way.  She even finds the whole thing a bit funny, although it would have been nice to understand why Isaac wanted her to wear the black shoes.
