Davenport household....

Third POV:

Leo walks over to Tasha with goggles on, carrying a bucket with gloves on his hands. He sets the bucket down, taking off his goggles, "Ugh. Okay. Toilet's clean. Bathtub's clean, sink is clean. And may I just say, you people are disgusting."

"Here is your chore money." Tasha gives him money.

Leo takes off his gloves, taking the money. He counts it, "Sweet! I have enough money to see the new Pig Zombie movie and get a T-shirt. Pig Zombie: Cruise Ship Massacrein 3-D. Hungry hogs on the high seas."

"Leo, I don't want you wasting your brain, your money or your time on that trash." Tasha tells him, "You are not going to see Pig Zombies. End of discussion."

"Well, but--"

"Uh-uh." She cuts Leo off.

"Can I--"

"Mmmmrph!" She cuts him off again, sitting on the couch.

"Glad to see we were able to talk this out." Leo mutters.

Adam, Bree, Chase, and Janet walk in. Adam sees Leo's goggles on his forehead, "Leo, I know you want to be a superhero, but that's the worst costume ever." Adam laughs.

Leo looks at what he's wearing before staring at Adam blankly, "I was cleaning the bathroom, so I could get some money to see my favorite movie. But someone who shall remain nameless..." Leo's head snaps to Tasha, "won't let me go."

"Wait a minute." Chase starts, "You get paid money just for cleaning stuff?"

"Oh, yeah. Most kids have chores. You clean things around the house, and then you get an allowance from your parents." Tasha answers from the couch.

"I want chores!" Bree runs over to Tasha.

"I want money!" Chase follows.

"Oh, I want a big furry hat so I can wear it to scare animals." Adam goes over to Tasha.

Janet follows, "I don't live here."

Leo rolls his eyes, "Lucky you." He turns to Adam, Bree, and Chase, "You guys can finish my chores. There's no reason for me to have money since Miss Bank-Manager" Leo looks at Tasha, "put a freeze on my fun account."

Leo walks away and Janet follows. "So where should we start?" Bree asks.

"Just look around the house and see what needs to be cleaned." Tasha answers, standing off the couch and walking away.

"I got this." Adam tells Bree and Chase before lifting up the couch. Adam leans the couch forward and change falls out from the cushions. Adam leans it back normal and sees his floss, "Oh! That's where I left my lucky floss!" Adam grabs it.

Adam sets down the couch and Chase points out, "If you use that, I will hurl."

Adam wraps the floss around his fingers, "And then I will clean up that hurl. Ka-ching!" He sings, using the floss.

Bree and Chase roll their eyes before starting to clean. Adam follows, getting the vacuum and vacuuming the couch. Chase straightens out the pillows and Bree cleans the coffee table. They move to the dining table, cleaning it off. Next, they go to the kitchen, cleaning off the counters. Adam grabs a handful of bowls and plates, throwing them on the floor. Chase sighs, picking them up and placing them where they're supposed to go. Bree washes the countertop. Chase grabs Bree's legs, holding them up and moving her back and forth while she cleans the floor with a rag. She stands, smiling, "Perfect!" The place sparkles. "You could eat off of this floor." She points out.
