Transcript:
Phoebe: Mom, dad, I'm gonna go play outside.
Dad: Aw! C'mon, stay inside and play video games.
Phoebe: I think you guys might be bad influences.
Mom: I call player one!
Also, when home video game consoles were first introduced, didn’t they advertise the games as a way to bring the family together? Why does it feel so cynical to see this actually being played out?
