Herbert shuffled into the kitchen, a peculiar expression on his face. Margot was meticulously arranging flowers. "Margot," he began, his voice hushed, "I had the strangest sensation just now."

Margot paused, a skeptical look in her eyes. "Oh? What sort of sensation, Herbert? Did you finally decide to clean the gutters and discover muscles you'd forgotten existed?"

Herbert ignored her. "No, no. I felt... lighter. As if I could achieve glory, like winning the Oakhaven chili cook-off. But then it vanished."

"Probably just indigestion from that questionable hotdog you ate at the Corner Shop," Margot suggested, returning to her flowers.

"But what if it's more? What if I'm destined for greatness?" Herbert pondered, scratching his head. "Perhaps I should instruct Brian in the art of…competitive napping!"

Margot sighed, carefully placing a rose. "Herbert, please don't instruct Brian in anything that involves further laziness. He needs to focus on his schoolwork." She turned to face him. "And greatness doesn't come from nowhere. It requires effort, not avoiding responsibility like a guilty dog trying to conceal a bone."

Suddenly, Brian burst into the kitchen, a skateboard tucked under his arm. "Hey, Mom, Dad! Guess what? I'm going to enter the skateboarding competition at the park! Think I can win?"

Herbert perked up. "Now that's glory!" He winked at Margot. "Maybe there's hope for the next generation after all."

Margot rolled her eyes. "Just wear your helmet, Brian. And Herbert, later I will need you to buy a liver at the Corner Shop, I want to try a new recipe."

Herbert's face fell. "Liver? Oh, Margot, must you always conceal your culinary ambitions behind such…unpleasant ingredients?"

Brian wrinkled his nose. "Ew, liver! No way I'm eating that."

Margot simply smiled sweetly. "Then you'll both be having salad. Now, off you go, Brian. And Herbert, I expect that liver by five."
