Interesting that most of this thread is people saying that Lisa's rule was stupid because they had toy guns as kids. Rather than saying that Lisa had a rule and Karen purposely broke it. I still like that Watson backed Lisa up. (I thought it was funny that Karen referred to her piggy bank as her big-house piggy bank. The girl had two piggy banks. She rich.)
Karen said if she used a gun every time she had a problem then she wouldn’t have any friends or a brother left. Karen Brewer, Serial Killer confirmed.
Maybe Seth should have researched the movie a little rather than just ask his 7-year-old if it was supposed to be good. It did sound violent and scary. The musketeers were clutching each other's hands. Andrew hung on to Seth. Karen buried her face in Lisa's lap at one point. I'd be a pissy parent if I brought my kids to a G rated movie like that.
Lisa irked me about the used toy bit. Karen wanted to try to sell the toys back to the toy store. Lisa said no, that wouldn’t work.
I’ve never met a kid who cried over not having the box full of twisty ties and excessive plastic bits. Sell it at 50% off.
The new family needed to go to Karen’s etiquette school. The mural sounded terrible. There had to be at least 12 layers of paint on it by the time it was done.
A lot of food things jumped out at me. Nancy chose banana ice cream (Banana-Dana-Twirl). It was in a dish, so perhaps a banana split? Still gross choice, Nancy. The big house voted on pizza to order. Broccoli and mushroom with extra cheese. Sounds good! However, there are 10 people in that house. Get!More!Than!One!Kind! Karen asked for “two meatballs, please” at the little house’s spaghetti dinner. I thought the italics was funny, but I’ve had meatballs recently and they are quite filling. Eat enough and you’re eating a whole burger on top of your noodles.
The cover to this is very misleading. The window to this toy store was insane. It had every toy in the world somehow floating in the air. The blurb said “Karen and Andrew want them all!” No, they didn’t. They wanted 2 very specific ones. Bad advertising!

“Would you want to play with a toy that had been opened?” asked Mommy.
