Eight Legged Freaks2002

(Mike gets home)

Sam:
So, where were you?

Mike:
...I went to Joshua's.

Sam:
What did I tell you about going over there?

Mike:
But mom, his spiders have become gigantic! (Sam glances at a monster movie on TV) The whole town could be in danger! They could destroy everything; people could get killed! Just hear me out!

Sam:
I swear to God, it's the television! This is exactly your problem right here! I don't want to hear anymore of your mediate-induced, paranoid, delusional nightmares!(turns TV off) You can add a week to how long you're grounded too.

Mike:
Mom, please...!

Sam:
And no TV!
