Herbert slumped onto the sofa, remote in hand. "This old thing needs an adjustment," he grumbled, fiddling with the antenna. The picture flickered. "Or maybe a new TV."

Margot entered, carrying a basket of laundry. "Herbert, you said that last week. It works fine. Just watch something educational for once. Laura's going through an adolescent phase, she needs some positive influences."

Herbert snorted. "Positive influences? All that girl does is practice her saxophone. Sounds like a dying moose."

Later, at the Corner Shop, Brian was eyeing the candy selection. The sign above promised a "Muscle Boom!" from their new protein bars. He grabbed one and showed it to Herbert.

"Dad, can I get this? It's a protein supplement! It'll help me with... uh... skateboarding."

Herbert, distracted by the donut display, barely glanced at it. "Sure, sure. Just don't expect me to pay for it. Your mother handles the grocery budget."

Back home, Laura was attempting to teach Molly how to clap. Each successful clap resulted in Molly's delighted squeal and a shower of baby giggles. Laura smiled, then sighed. "Sometimes, simple things are best."

That evening, Herbert tried to watch his favorite detective show, but the remote was missing. Brian sheepishly admitted he'd taken it apart, hoping for some kind of "activation" power-up. Margot rolled her eyes. "Honestly, Herbert, you encourage him."

Herbert just sighed, reached for a donut, and said, "At least I have you, my sweet pastry friend."
