Bob sat on the sofa with the TV on looking dazed and exhausted. He had bags under his eyes, and stubble on his face.

"Hey, dad. We're doing fractions and denismals and percentages and I don't get 'em." Dash said, holding out his book.

"Aren't you...didn't we get all caught up?" Bob groaned.

Bob looked up at the TV and saw that some rich guy had bought Bob's old car.

"Hey, this is not your car!" Bob told him.

"It's not your car either." Dash retorted.

"It is so! It's the Incredibile!"

"Then why's that guy gave it?" Dash asked.

"He shouldn't." Bob grabbed the remote back.

"Launch the rockets! Launch the rockets! Launch the rockets!" Dash chanted.

"I'm not launching anything!"
