Herbert was inspecting the new conveyor belt at Oakhaven Industries. He considered the exposed gears a definite hazard. "Needs a guard," he mumbled, making a vague note on his clipboard.

Meanwhile, Brian was planning a daring coup. Not against a government, thankfully, but against the school's draconian lunch policy banning chocolate pudding. His plans involved a highly convincing note from "Dr. Mom".

Margot sighed as she opened Herbert's lunch bag. Another donut. "Herbert," she said that evening, "there needs to be some accountability when it comes to your diet."

Herbert looked injured. "But Margot," he protested, "I had to compile the safety reports today! Stress eating is a real thing!"

Brian walked in, carrying a suspiciously pudding-stained spoon. "Speaking of accountability..."

Margot rolled her eyes. "This family..."

Later that night, Herbert asked Margot, 'I wonder if Brian had a coup with the pudding?'. Margot answered, 'There will be accountability if he did.'

Brian asked Herbert, 'Dad, is working as a safety inspector a hazard?' Herbert replied, 'Sometimes, but it's never vague, and I can compile my own reports!'
