"Ugh." Thomas grunts. He's already tried hundreds of times to make this stupid lightbulb turn on, and it just won't budge. He drops his tools and sits down in his chair, sighing.

"Why won't this stupid thing work?!" His voice raises in frustration but he calms himself down. "I'm taking a lunch break." Thomas walks outside his workshop and into his house. He immediately smells something delicious. He walks into the kitchen and sees his wife cooking.

"What's this?" Thomas asks, surprising her. "Oh! It's spaghetti." Mina smiles at him.

Thomas grunts in disappointment like a bitch. "I don't want spaghetti!!!" He whines while smashing his hands into the ground like a baby.
Mina sighs, looking down at him on the ground. "Do you want plain noodles?" Thomas looks up with puppy-dog eyes and nods.

She makes him a plate and once he finishes he goes back to his workshop.

He walks back to his desk and picks up his tools. He fails another 100 times and is on the verge of giving up. Suddenly, he sees a spark in the lightbulb! It turns on!

Thomas jumps up and down, excited. He's almost out the door, to tell his wife, when he hears a deep voice behind him.

"Where do you think you're going?"
