Nah. They just figure out eventually one of them is kind of wonky and ignore it. Or maybe both are, so they end up just looking at the stove clock.

Also you can't tell a story just with the Aesop ending - you have to tell the fable and END with that line.

Ah, no, the misunderstanding was with something else. Apparently "Aesop ending" is a keyword/crossword definition. It means "the moral of the story" :-)
