Polite wife

So I passed out on the couch last night as I tend to do on the weekends and or on those nights when i'm in trouble with the wife. When I woke up at 4 am with that whole neighbor's house on fire thing. I ran up stairs to tell Cathy what was going on and as running up the stairs Cathy wakes up thinking it's a burglar, but since it's Cathy she's still all sweet and polite and goes, "Hello, who is it?" Who the heck did she think it was? Does she have gentleman callers that I'm not aware of? I was half surprised that she didn't offer to get me something to eat or drink. So now that she is half awake I ask her if she knew what was going on outside. She bolts out of bed and starts screaming. "Oh, no are the animals ok?" For a second I thought I should give her a nice slap and a shake like they do in old movies and yell at her to pull herself together, but i'm not like that. Finally after I explained it to her, drew her a nice little picture and built a diagram for her, she was finally calmed down and woke up enough to realize what had actually happened.
