"kansas city hustle" is when somebody delays doing something knowing that someone else will do it instead, BUT at the last second, acts like they were in the process of doing it, ultimately getting out of doing said act.
Baby: WAH!! WAH!!!
Dad: ** glancing at wife out of the corner of his eye**
Mom: ** gets up to get the baby **
Dad: ** starts leaning forward and 'just notices' mom is already getting up to take care of the baby, perfectly executing the kansas city hustle ** "OH...you...you got it then? I was going to, but...if you got it, go ahead..."
