Dad! There is a monster under my bed! Really? A real monster? An undiscovered megafauna is right here in your room? All we have to do is get a picture and we'll all be famous! There'll be book and movie deals and awards and oh it'll be wonderful! Mommy can leave the job he hates and I can finally get the Ferrari I gave up on ever having after you were born! Oh thankyou thankyou thankyou! Now, everything is good again! It's time to remember what it was like to smile at the sunrise. I'll be right back with the camera. You wait here, my little cherub. Earlier... Mom! Dad! There's a monster under my bed! Ugh. Again? Yes, but for the last time.
