Herbert sat in his armchair, remote in hand. Margot entered, carrying a stack of bills.

Margot sighed. "Herbert, the elderly Mrs. Gable complained again about your hedge trimming. She said it looks like a beaver attacked it."

Herbert chuckled. "She always complains. I think she likes the attention."

Margot placed the bills on the coffee table. "And Mr. Henderson said your loud music disturbed his afternoon nap. I tried to assure him it won't happen again, but..."

Herbert shrugged. "He's deaf as a post anyway!"

Margot frowned. "That's not the point, Herbert! You need to be more considerate."

Brian walked in, slamming the door. "Dad, can you take me to the skate park?"

Herbert, without looking up, mumbled, "Later, Brian. I'm watching the bowling."

Brian rolled his eyes. "You always say 'later'!"

Margot put her hands on her hips. "Brian, don't speak to your father like that. And Herbert, maybe you should interpret his request as a sign you need to be more active."

Herbert grumbled, "Active? I'm actively relaxing."

Brian scoffed. "Yeah, right."

Suddenly, Molly started crying loudly from upstairs.

Margot closed her eyes briefly. "That's it. I'm going to deal with Molly. Herbert, try not to incite any more anger before I get back."

Margot hurried upstairs.

Herbert sighed. "What's with everyone?" He turned to Brian. "Fine, I'll take you to the skate park. But only if you help me unload the groceries later. And no complaining."

Brian grinned. "Deal! Let's go!"

Later, at Oakhaven Industries, Herbert was having lunch with his crew.

"Hey Herb, you seem happier than usual" said Bob.

"Yeah, I managed to avoid most of Margot's chores today" Herbert replied while unwrapping a donut.
