After Jem vandalizes Mrs. Dubose's flower bed, he and Scout wait in their living room for Atticus to come home. Scout narrates:

"Two geological ages later, we heard the soles of Atticus's shoes scrape the front steps. The screen door slammed, there was a pause-Atticus was at the hat rack in the hall-and we heard him call "Jem!" His voice was like the winter wind. Atticus switched on the ceiling light in the livingroom and found us there, frozen still."
