Chapter 1: Family Playtime

(Charlie, Areil, and Eric are playing a board game with MJ and Peter in the living room. Everyone is laughing and having fun.)

Charlie: “Ha! I win again! I’m the best!”

MJ: “Alright, let’s reset the board. Who’s ready for round two?”

Eric: “Me! Me! Areil, you better not cheat this time!”

(Charlotte enters, looking bored and uninterested in the game.)

Charlotte: “This is so lame. Why are you guys playing this baby game?”

Peter: “Charlotte, we’re spending time as a family. Why don’t you join us instead of being rude?”

Chapter 2: Peter Gives a Warning

(Charlotte rolls her eyes and flops on the couch dramatically.)

Charlotte: “No thanks. I’ve got better things to do.”

Peter (firmly): “Charlotte, that’s enough. If you’re going to stay here, no attitude. Otherwise, go to timeout.”

Charlotte (mocking): “Oh no, timeout! So scary.”

(Peter stands up, giving her a stern look.)

Peter: “Charlotte, last warning. Go to timeout, or there will be consequences.”

Charlotte (smirking): “You’re not gonna do anything, Dad. You like me too much.”

Chapter 3: Peter Enforces Discipline

(Peter, visibly frustrated, slaps Charlotte on the leg to get her attention, but she responds by yelling and talking back even more.)

Charlotte: “You didn’t have to hit me! That’s so unfair!”

Peter: “That was your warning, Charlotte. Now, you’re going to timeout.”

Charlotte: “No, I’m not! You can’t make me!”

(Peter, losing patience, slaps her on the face lightly but firmly, startling her. He picks her up, carrying her to the corner.)

Peter: “You don’t talk back to your parents, Charlotte. Sit here and think about your behavior.”

Chapter 4: Taking the Phone

(Charlotte tries to grab her phone from her pocket, but Peter notices and takes it away.)

Peter: “No phone until you’ve learned to respect us. You’re grounded for the rest of the day.”

Charlotte: “That’s not fair! I didn’t even do anything that bad!”

MJ: “Charlotte, listen to your dad. You’re in timeout because of your attitude.”

Chapter 5: Grounded

(After timeout, Charlotte is sent to her room to cool off. She sits on her bed, pouting and thinking about how she crossed the line.)

Charlotte (to herself): “I guess I did push too far this time… Maybe I should’ve just played the stupid game.”
