A question about church etiquette?

If the pastor is preaching and his ill-fitting false teeth fly out of his mouth and land in the aisle, do you pick them up (with a tissue or something) and hand them back to him, saying, “I believe you dropped these.”

Or, do you just pretend not to notice and gaze meditatively at the stained glass windows while he picks them up and puts them back in?

It’s an awkward situation.
j p, yes, it did happen. I figured if it happened once, it might happen again.

    Well, I would just pretend I didn’t notice.

    does everyone else see that he dropped them, are you the closest nearby and is he looking right at you for help? Did this really happen? This is hilarious.

    I would have picked them up for him and smiled as I hand them back. Help your fellow man. If he is old enough for false teeth, it may be hard for him to pick them up off the floor.

    Oh, pick them up and be nice…

    Oh noooooooo poor poor guy. Did anyone laugh? Im afraid I wouldn’t have been able to stop laughing, but I would also have handed them back to him if I was near enough.
