[GRUNTING.]
Did we bolt this down? Zack, you probably can't help me with this.
[GRUNTING.]
Let's lighten the load here, right? Another way this machine gives you exercise is when you move it once every five years.

[RINGING TONE.]
[CELLPHONE RINGING.]
Hey, it's Mommy.
[GREG.]
Hey, babe.
How's it going? Um, it's interesting.
Everyone's looking at me like I've shown up to audit them.
Do you know what "Slack" is? Or "hot desking"? You mean "crop dusting"? Anyway, I'm not spying on you, but I just looked in on the Nest camera and I saw that Zack wasn't in his bed and it's, it's nap time.
[MEGAN.]
You know how he can wander.
No, he's napping.
We're in the living room.
Okay, I'm just trying to help you maximize your free time.
If he's in his bed, he'll sleep.
Taking a big risk.
No, yeah, he's sleeping I'm looking right at him, his His eyes are closed, he's very tired.
Get back to work, Sugar Mama.
- Love you.
- Bye.
Thank you, nurse.
Now, can you do something about that little monster? This is "Zacky No Nap.
" That's what Mom calls it.
Yeah.
Zacky, no! Screws are bad for your teeth.
Dad, I'm bored.
We are almost done taking this thing apart.
Only 432 more screws to go.
You said that an hour ago.
Play with me.
I know, but if I give up now, we'll have nothing to show for today.
Do you really wanna go to bed with that on your conscience? Yes.
Yeah, me too.
I can live with that.
Popsicle time.
Let's go.
[MEGAN.]
I'm home! Oh, hi! There she is.
Oh, my.
Is that for your girlfriend? No, I broke up with her.
Traded up for a working woman.
How was it? It was amazing.
- Really? - No.
It was awful.
I felt like the principal in The Breakfast Club.
Well, listen, everyone has an adjustment period.
Yeah.
Whoo.
I can see that.
Interesting.
These piles over here.
I'm doing laundry in stages.
- That's stage one.
- Okay.
How did you hold up? I got zero work done on the office, but the kids are still alive.
Are they in bed? Item thirteen on the list.
Wow! I'm impressed you followed it.
Yeah.
I'm not a moron.
I made you some chicken.
You might want to heat it up, though.
Aw, honey, thank you so much.
But honestly, all I want to do is just tune out and watch Queen Bey.
[MEGAN.]
Did you record it? [GREG.]
What about those green beans though?
