Bob comes to a bad ending.

This is a very good commercial until the home-owning couple appear.While there are any number of things they could have said about Bob, what the woman in fact said is poorly written and illogical. First of all she asks "Is that Bob from down the street again?" She certainly must have know that it was, so why ask? Then she illogically asks, "What's he up to?" when it's obvious what he's up to is drinking tea and leaping in their pool. This spot would have been much funnier and more memorable with any number of other lines. Here's just one. She: "Oh, dear. It's Bob, from down the street,  again. Maybe we should get a restraining order."
