**Joe complimented his wife and invited her to go to her favorite restaurant with him. She slapped him instead. Why?
**
It wasn’t her favorite, it was his lover’s?
NO, though I love that idea.
Did the compliment and the restaurant name combine to make an insult, or make it seem like he was saying something else?
NO
(no wordplay in this one, either)
Was it a sexy slap?
NO
She was trying to lose weight? (Hence the compliment)
NO
Was she upset with him?
If so:
Was she upset with him for the compliment?
Was she upset with him for the suggestion of the restaurant?
Was she upset with him for the combination of compliment and restaurant suggestion?
Was there any special occasion for the compliment and/or the restaurant suggestion?
Was he trying to atone for something?
I know, right? I mean, come on! 
Was it something he didn’t do?
Something he did do?
Was he supposed to remember something?
Was Joe supposed to be unavailable to go to the restaurant? (e.g. he faked his own death then sits up in the coffin to complement his wife on arranging a wonderful funeral, and suggests a nice dinner at Cracker Barrel)
YES to both. (what???)
NO
NO, I love all of these ideas.
If Joe had suggested a different restaurant, would she have slapped him?
If Joe hadn’t complemented her would she have slapped him?
If Joe had used a different complement would she have slapped him?
