Herbert sighed. "Margot, the town council wants to appoint someone new to oversee park maintenance."

Margot, while folding laundry, responded, "And why is this my concern, Herbert?"

"Because," Herbert continued, "they want someone... liberal... someone 'progressive' who will encourage eco-friendly changes."

Margot paused. "And you think you fit that description? Herbert, you once tried to compost using only donut glaze."

Herbert frowned. "It was a learning experience! The point is, the position comes with a substantial budget. Enough to finally fix that leaky roof!"

"So you're saying you'll pretend to be an environmentalist for a new roof?"

"I prefer the term 'opportunistic steward'. Plus, how hard can it be?"

Later, at the park, Herbert meticulously examined a dandelion, pretending to take notes. Brian skated past.

"Dad, what are you doing?", Brian asked, doing a kickflip near the sandbox where a very small infant was playing.

"I'm... assessing the local flora, Brian. For the good of Oakhaven's ecosystem!"

Brian smirked. "Looks like you're about to step in something much more acid than dandelion juice."

Herbert looked down just in time to avoid a very unpleasant surprise. "Right, Brian. Go... observe the... birds! For science!" He mumbled, "This is going to be harder than I thought."
