It was a dark and stormy night. Richard and Nicole's fur were messy and unkempt. They tried everything to quiet down Gumball and his crying with a rattling toy, his pacifier, his bottle, stuffed animals, you name it!
Nicole: What is something to keep Gumball quiet?
Richard: *drooling* Uhh... a song?
Nicole: I knew this day would come Richard, but you're a genius.
Richard: I am?
Nicole: Maybe I can do th-
Richard: *covers her mouth* Up-up-up. I'll do it. Because you already do so much for this family.
Nicole: Wow, usually you wouldn't want to do something simple other than eating.
Richard: There's lots of things you don't know about me, Nicole.
Nicole: *laughs* Really, like what.
Richard: Too much to name.
Nicole: *laughs* Okay, I was just playing. You can sing.
Richard: *singing* Oh my son, Gumball. There's no need to cry. Because there's lots of things to do, then just in your crib and lie. Just know that we love you forever, and you love us too. We love you so much that we will die for you. We promise when you upset us badly we won't see you as a disappointment. Because if we do you would get hard mistreatment. Gumball, I wanted to say, you are the best thing that ever happen to us. And I hope you think, that you thought it was fun.
Gumball falls asleep, and Richard gives him a kiss. Nicole hugged him with happiness.
Nicole: Honey, despite your lack of abilities. What you don't lack is that big heart of yours.
Richard: Awww. Thanks, Nicole.
