WASHINGTON – Sleepwalking isn’t funny. Except when it is.

One mother got a nocturnal surprise when her son showed her footage of her sleepwalking. Video of her reaction is almost as interesting as the sleepwalking itself.

The initial video shows the woman sashaying through the kitchen and explaining she’s employing a “secret code.” She seems perfectly lucid.

“I had a dream about cherry picking or tomato picking or something,” the mother says in reaction.

The videos have gained tens of thousands of views on YouTube as of Friday morning. Check out the videos of the full sleepwalk, and the mother’s completely shocked reaction:
