I love the little "Ummmmmm" when he asked if she's in this family. The child actually had to think about it.

Even a few minutes could have killed her, or at least caused severe brain damage. And, judging by the fact that they have decorative rocks instead of a lawn, I'm assuming they live somewhere like Arizona or Nevada, where it gets ridiculously hot in the summer.

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT If you were, or are, an abused kid (and you're here, so, you know, hi,) READ ROALD DAHL'S BOOKS. His kid's books I mean, he gets weird and kinda shellshocked in his adult books. But seriously, greatly recommend them, they're a great tool to navigate a bad situation, and they're super satisfactory in their subversion. From Jack's mom dying climbing the beanstalk by being a hypocrite, to the despotic prince killing Cinderella's step sisters and Cinderella dumping him for a good dude.
