Andrea: Aren’t you going to watch over them to make sure they’re getting ready for bed?
Marlon: Nope. You have your methods and I have mine.
Andrea: Okay, this I’ve got to see .
Marlon: I don’t hear anyone brushing their teeth. If everyone isn’t in bed in five minutes, they’re going to get a cuddle from Norman.
Andrea: Who’s Norman?
Marlon: Norman is just a little scary monster I told them about. Norman eats little children who aren’t in bed when they’re supposed to be. It’s my way of making sure they stay in bed through the night .
