II. Video
[Erwin clearly looks tired today. Tired and grumpy. There dark smudges under his eyes and he doesn't look to be in very pleasant mood. But that's not the point of this inquiry.
No, the point of his inquiry this early morning is the vacuum cleaner on the floor behind him which had been sliced cleanly in half, laying in two pieces. He clears his throat before speaking.
Val, those new blades work beautifully, by the way.]
It seems our vacuum cleaner has broken.
[His expression doesn't encourage anyone to point out otherwise. He's been woken up in the early hours of the morning by that thing far too often after only a few minutes of sleep. Though, he also knows how someone feels about the vacuum. So here he is, this is almost his way of apologizing to maybe overacting.]
As I am not familiar with all the technology available and the options, I am seeking an alternative which doesn't make as much noise to replace the vacuum cleaner.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
[Sorry, Levi.]

What are you doing, Val?
[In his best Adult Authority Figure voice.]
[video]
Evaluating field performance.
[Duh.]
[video]
It is goddamn weird to be the responsible adult.]
Excuse me? When did you get involved in this?
[video]
[Man, why is he getting so worked up about this?]
[video]
[Because she's three years old and apparently everyone else is crazypants.]
[video]
[Val, on the other hand, has the ethics of a small child, so. Weapons for all!]
[video]
Ok, I'm not going to dispute that, because I'm sure you're right, but that's not really the point here, Val.
[video]
[video]
[Shit he needs a real adult point.]
- the point is that just because you can do something, it doesn't mean that you should. You're three years old. I know you mean well, but things like this have consequences for all the people involved. You could get them into trouble. You could get us into trouble, the people who are trying to look after you. You can't just do stuff like this.
[That's the best he's got, for her.]
[video]
She ponders the situation for a moment.]
You're right. I need to set up an LLC.
[Valeria Richards: reigning champion of Learning the Wrong Lesson.]
[video]
It is amazing how quickly one's hopes can be shattered by one sentence out of a three-year-old's mouth.]
That is not what I said.
[He gets the guilty feeling that maybe it kind of is. Clearly, he needs to try a new tactic. Call in reinforcements.
He's got to call Peter Parker.]
[video]
[Future Captain of Industry Valeria Richards.]
[video]
[video]
As near as I can tell, your point is that I didn't exercise due diligence.
Which is fair. I guess.
[That comes out a bit...grudging. Val hates being wrong.]
[video]
No, Val- well, that's a good point- [...he thinks.] But still not really the problem here.
[video]
This is going nowhere.
[video]
[Spoilers, Pete will agree with him. Flash knows he will.]
[video]
Fiiiiiiiine.
