No,Linus had NO idea, that has grandmother would actually want to give up smoking, or try to, anyway—how WRONG he was!!! Sometimes it really is best not to “borrow trouble,”as my parents always say, by not even trying to walk yourself into a trap of some kind, by assuming that someone would NEVER do something—how TERRIBLY WRONG you actually might be, for once!!!
