A woman tells her children to do something, but just one boy obeys.
The woman says something to him, and he stomps away, sits down, and sulks.

What happened?

Just a guess...

I think he broke something, maybe an expensive glass item, and didn't tell his mother. She wanted to find out which one of her children broke it, so she asked them to go clean her "broken glass" or they'd get punished. But... she never specified what was broken or where. Therefore, when her son immediately went to go clean it, she says something to the likes of: "so how did you know what was broken? you must have broken it and not told me. You are grounded!" The boy stomped away, faced downcast, because he was busted and grounded.
