This episode is a dialogue between a mother and a father who are trying to get a picture taken of the entire family. Let’s get started.
Dad: Okay, everybody, take your places.
Mom: We’re in our places. Can’t the photographer just take the photo?
Dad: We have to pose. The whole point is to look natural.
Mom: If you wanted a natural family photo, why are we in a portrait studio in the middle of a sitting?
Dad: I want us to stand in front of a nice background and pose with nice props.
