We'll check the bank ... repel it ..

This happened sometime in 2006-2007.. the days when Bob the builder ruled Nishu's consciousness.
I needed to put a check in, and drove to the nearest Bank of America. Being a weekend afternoon, the little master also tagged along.
We got into the bank parking lot near the ATM, and out came the question.

"Papa, where are we ? "
"We're at the bank" 
"What it doos ? "
"Er.. we're here to put a cheque"
Anticipating the 'what is a cheque?' question, I was already wondering how to explain that.. when 
"Ok, we'll check the bank, hammer the bank, and repel (repair ) the bank" 
"??!"
"And the bank will be fixed" 

The momentary confusion cleared as the tune 'Bob the builder, can we fix it ?.. " played for a second in my head. 
I smiled at him   "Sure Nishu .. we'll hammer the bank.." ..
