Garrett Davis: Here's a story from North America!

Son: Daddy, daddy, daddy, hurry!
I saw something scurry!

Father: Son, what's all this screaming for?
You're gonna wake the neighbors next door!

Son: Daddy, I think there's a spider on my floor!
Is it?
And will you squish it?

Father: You call me in here in the middle of the night
To come into your room and destroy life?
Is that what they teach you
In Sunday School?

Son: But Daddy, it's gross!
It's got a million legs!
A billion eyes!
A trillion eggs!

Father: Son, it's not disgusting - it's just reality;
Take a deep breath and appreciate life!

Look how delicate his legs are
Crawling across your bedroom floor!
Do you know the proper name?

Son: Arachnid!!!

Father: That's right!

We're living in a world that's full of creatures,
Big and small,
Hairy and slimy,
You are not the center of the world...

How would you feel if a giant hand
Came out of the sky and decided to crush you?

Son: I guess I'd be scared, but Daddy!
What if
The spider hurts me?

Garrett Davis: *turns page*

Father: He didn't hurt you yet, did he, son?
Your logic is flawed, you come undone!

Swallow your pride.

What if the spider said the same thing:
"Daddy, daddy, kill that kid!"

Son: That's the point, dad! What if he did?
That's why
I have to strike first!

Father: What if he did?
What if he didn't???
What if the world was made of pudding???????

All I'm saying is consider
Something
Besides your
Thirst... for blood?

Son: Dad, you're right!
Now I see!
Maybe he's got a family!

Father: Now you're learning,
Understanding,
Finally you're becoming human!!!

Let's return him to his natural habitat -
Put him in a cup and take him outside...

Godspeed.
