Everyone's eating at the dinner table, except for Merkle, she was chewing on a squirrel squeaky toy while Helen feeds Jack-Jack, she was making faces while doing this.
Dash: Mom. You're making weird faces again.
Helen: Mmm...No, I'm not.
Bob: ( reading the newspaper ) You make weird faces, honey.
Helen: ( to Bob: ) Do you have to read at the table?
Bob: Uh-huh. Yeah.
Merkle: ( thoughts, rolling her eyes at Bob: ) It's either he's reading the paper or he's in his office, Mom.
Merkle then noticed how Dash was eating his steak as Helen spots it.
Helen: Smaller bites, Dash. Yikes! Bob, could you help the carnivore cut his meat?
Merkle mentally chuckled, as Bob went over to Dash and cuts a piece of the steak for his son.
Helen: Dash, you have something you wanna tell your father about school?
Merkle: ( her eyes widened ) ( thoughts: ) Oh, great. I bet ten bacon doggy treats that Dad is going to be happy about the powers part of it.
Dash: ( nervously: ) Uh, um, well, we dissected a frog.
Helen: Dash got sent to the office again.
Bob: ( distracted ) Good. Good.
Merkle rolls her eyes at Bob.
Helen: No Bob, that's bad.
Bob: What?
Helen: Dash got sent to the office again.
Bob: What?! What for?
Dash: Nothing.
Helen: He put a tack on the teacher's chair... during class.
Dash: Nobody saw me. You could barely see it on the tape.
Merkle: ( thoughts: ) That's my human brother. Cue Dad being impressed.
Bob: ( To Dash: ) They caught you on tape and you still got away with it? Whoa! You must have been booking. How fast do you think you were going?
Helen: Bob! We are not encouraging this.
Bob: I'm not encouraging, I'm just asking how fast-
Helen: Honey!
Merkle knew by the sound of the plate breaking, that Bob accidentally cut through the plate and table, causing it to collapse.
Bob: Great. First the car, now I gotta pay to fix the table...
Helen: The car?! What happened to the car?
Bob: ( gives his plate to Dash ) Here. I'm getting a new plate.
Bob then leaves angrily, causing Merkle to whined slightly, before Merkle stares at her squeaky toy.
