A childhood belief about tv

My parents used to love "Lonesome Dove," so naturally I always watched it too. At one point there is a prostitute playing the piano, and Robert Duvall yells from upstairs "Tell that whore to stop playing and get up here" or something along those lines. So naturally my siblings and I asked what a whore was. My parents decided between them that a prostitute was a woman who played the piano.

The very next Sunday my mom told the pianist at our church the story, just in case we were to tell her what a good whore she was.
