It really gets messed up when one has to consider the energy of getting kicked out of the kitchen as opposed to when one got kicked out. Not even Julia Child can help with that. That is called Emeril uncertainty and is summarized as...

BAM!! BAM!! Your ass is out of the kitchen right now (however with hopelessly indeterminate energy).

As I said earlier, it's complicated.
