Even if you're not expecting a horror in the closet, what's the point in getting a sweater if it doesn't set up conflict? Otherwise you've wasted 15 seconds of time. Things I might expect are:
* horror in the closet
* the expected sweater is missing
* the delay to get the sweater causes a problem
* wearing the sweater later has significance

They might not all be interesting conflicts to me, but without conflict, getting the sweater does nothing for me but stop the action.
