A Christchurch man paid the price for dozing off while on a date with his wife last night.
Radio reports say a husband and wife were at the film PS I Love You at Hoyts Cinema in Northlands Mall, when the man nodded off.
His annoyed wife decided not bother to wake him up at the end of the movie and went home alone.
She woke at 3am to discover her husband had still not made it home so rang his cellphone and woke him up.
The man then set off the mall's alarm system when he tried to leave.
Radio said police arrived to find a very embarrassed couple.
A police spokesman said it sounded like a case of "husband neglect'' to him.
A Hoyts Cinemas representative could not be reached for comment.
