LO to mom: "Are my containers in the trash?"
me: "What containers are you talking about buddy?"
LO: "My containers! Are they in the trash?"
me: "I don't know what you're talking about. Maybe they are, or maybe they are in your box"
end of conversation with mom, LO goes to look in toy box

Sure it took more time, but we were all entertained and I was so impressed with both DH's patience and enthusiasm and LO's creativity.
