Romancing the Crone

"I can't believe that stupid video got two million hits," he said.

"And the kid who posted it won a free trip to Hollywood," Emma added.

"Dad would be so proud of us if we made a great viral video."

"He might even forget that you sold his Golden Globe to get a new skateboard," Ravi said.

"Honestly, you couldn't have gotten the money yourself?" Natasha asked.

"Uh, yeah. It was a People's Choice Award. I had to beg that guy to take it," Luke said.

"And my point stands," Natasha said before rolling her eyes.

"Too bad we don't have a cool pet," Emma said before they all started thinking.

Mr. Kipling growled.

"Quiet, Mr. Kipling. We're trying to think!" Natasha said as the four looked up. Mr. Kipling slapped them with his tail.

"That's it!" Luke said.

"A lizard video!" Emma replied.

"That's perfect!" Natasha added.

"A star is hatched!" Ravi said happily.

Later on, the kids were in the kitchen recording Mr. Kipling for the video.

"He's not doing anything," Luke said.

"He is so! He is oozing star quality," Ravi said with a smile.

Luke closed the camcorder and stood up.

"Well, go get a paper towel and clean it up," he said.

"Oh, I think I just saw him blink!" Emma said. Luke started recording again.

"Oh, wait. That was me blinking," she said with a frown.

"Em, I'm concerned for you sometimes," Natasha said.

Back in the screening room, Emma came in with a shopping bag.

"Hey, guys. I've got the perfect thing to make Mr. Kipling's video go viral," she said excitedly.

"Let me guess. A cute outfit!" Luke said in a mocking tone.

"No. A cute costume," Emma corrected. "Captain Kipling to the rescue!" She pulled out a small superhero costume.

"I love it!" Ravi said as he looked at the costume.

"It's actually really cute," Natasha said.

"Can we even get him into that?" Luke asked.

"Try keeping him out of it," Ravi said.

After a few minutes, the kids finally managed to get the costume on Mr. Kipling, but they were exhausted and clearly had been attacked by the lizard, as their clothes were torn.

"That was not so hard," Ravi said as he was sitting on the floor.

"Yeah, we still have most of our fingers," Luke said.

"And we didn't lose that much blood. Hey, is that a unicorn?" Natasha said as she pointed at nothing.

"It's worth it. He looks totes adorable," Emma said.

"Okay, so, let's go throw him off the stairway and pretend that he's flying," Luke said as the four stood up.

"I hope you are planning on having a stunt lizard," Ravi said with concern.
