===Episode 4===
Melissa: I don't know what we're going to do, honey.
Hanse: About what, Dear? 
Melissa: About Victor and Kathy. 
Hanse: Geez, tell me about it. I told that boyfriend of hers to get his motorcycle off the front lawn. You know what Vlad did? He called me a solemic, solaran, oh solahma freebirth filth and spit at me.
Melissa: So what did you do? 
Hanse: I punched him.
Melissa: So why did we have to have him med-evace'd.
Hanse: (feeling embarrassed): I punched him with my Battlemaster. 
Melissa: Oh dear. What will the neighbors think? 
Arthur: Well Mom, the Liaos called dad a vile serpent out to destroy all that differ from him...They called him a bloodthirsty beast...
Hanse: Enough!
Arthur: A vicious betrayer of all the principles of the Federation.
Hanse: ENOUGH!
Arthur: And she also called him the Anti-Christ.
Hanse and Melissa: Enough!!!
Melissa: That will be all, go out and play with your new Enforcer. And no shooting that Ultra-10 of yours in Mr. Kurita's windows again.... 
Arthur: OOOOOOOhhhhhhhhHHHHHH! (stomps out) 
Hanse: What's the number for that Wobbie school?
Melissa: What else about Vlad? 
Hanse: He kept screaming something about an invalid trial cause I fought augmented....stravag waste of flesh.... 
Melissa: That was probably the morphine talking, dear. 
Hanse: Maybe. (smiles) He did fly 20 meters. 
Melissa: Now what about Victor? 
Hanse: (sigh) Ever since he dated Omi, that Theodore has been in this house. Yesterday, I caught him in my office with a tape measure saying something about pillars of teak and steel.
Melissa: Don't forget about Peter. 
Hanse: What's wrong with him? 
Melissa: Now honey, remember when Victor got his Victor wrecked in that fight with the Falcon gang.(Hanse nods) 
Melissa: And how that nice Mr. Wolf bought him that great big Daishi?
(Hanse nods again) 
Melissa: Peter's feeling withdrawn from you since you only bought him a Jagermech. 
Hanse: But it's a perfectly fine 'Mech. There is nothing wrong with four proud Davion autocannons spewing anger.
Melissa: It's middle child syndrome. He just wants a way to carve his own niche. He'll get over it. But in his defense Hanse, the Jagermech really sucks. Seriously, sweety, when you give a child a toy whose little autocannon weighs as much the Mechs' armor... It's so... un-Steiner. Besides, a Steiner in a Mech going 4/6? That's unheard of speed!
Hanse: What was I supposed to do? Your daughter bought Australia because the sand matched her hair, the water her eyes, and the clouds her new outfit...By the way, why is she wearing all that white vinyl? 
Melissa: It's all that bonding that she and Vlad do....Do you think we could send her to the Wobbie re-education school too?
