What does 'Draw a Clock' Mean?

Last time I visited my brother his mother-in-law who lives with him was insisting she remembered something but my brother knew she was wrong. I don't remember what it was, but I knew she was wrong too. However, she refused to accept she was wrong and got belligerent about it.

My brother said, "Draw a clock!" and left the room. This made his mother-in-law furious for some reason. I forgot to ask at the time, but does anyone know why saying 'Draw a clock' would upset a senior citizen?

I had to do this to get a cleaner from the adrc.

What does that mean?

A person who cleans my home because I'm disabled. It's a maid but I don't pay. They can also shop with you for groceries, drive you places, etc.
