“Aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play” implies there was something about the situation that one otherwise might enjoy. Thus, the only ones here that make sense are Fredo’s fishing (lol!) and Barb’s party. So good work CatBus!
If you want to get real pedantic, I’m not sure those work either - the question is posed to Mrs. Lincoln, not Abraham himself.
Not sure it’s that pedantic, since the reason you’re asking Mrs. Lincoln is because she’s alive to ask, making the question at least theoretically plausible. I actually considered asking someone other than Barb for that very reason, but it just wasn’t as funny.
And there were only two people in Fredo’s boat, and one of them thought the fishing trip went exactly as planned, so asking him would have been boring, so I ask the dead guy again.
