"Daddy, can I do a wedding proposal like I said I'd do on TV?" Sheri asked innocently.
"You did WHAT?!" Grand Leader said, slamming his fist on the desk.
"Please Daddy? I really love him!"
"Does he really love you back?"
"Well...no. But I know he'll say yes if a camera crew is there!"
"You do, don't you? Well, let me tell you something. A person won't care if they're called a jerk by the media if they avoid saying they'll marry someone they don't really love."
"How do you know?"
"Um..." Grand refused to tell his daughter he wished he had done that either own mother. He didn't really love her, she was just pretty in front of the camera.
"So...that's a yes?"
"NO, IT'S NOT! YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT! I'M CALLING THE NEWS STATION IMMEDIATELY!"
"Geesh dad, no need to yell. I got it." Sheri said, defeated. She left her dad's office to wander around the mansion.
