[01]
The creator acts out a comedic skit portraying a frustrated father trying to fix an outdoor AC unit while yelling instructions up to his son in a second-story window. The scene cuts between the dad's struggles outside, a close-up of the thermostat, and a first-person POV from the window as the dad increasingly blames the son for his own confusion, culminating in the dad realizing he forgot to actually fix the AC.

Average Dad blaming you when he can't figure something out:
Seriously, chief. It should not take that long. Come on. Alright. Now go upstairs and kick it off auto. I told you to put that in the garage. Kick it on auto, not on. It's just gonna blow hot air. Hey, bad. Up here. Dude, what are you doing? It didn't make sense for me to walk all the way downstairs. Dad, until you fall out of the freaking window. Turn it on auto? Yeah. Well, it's not worse. Flip it to auto, not on. My gosh. Alright. It's on auto. Dad, up here again. Did you adjust the temperature? No. You have to adjust the temperature in order for it to kick on. Come on. You didn't tell me. Oh, do I have to come up there? No. Bad, the the AC. Sorry, dude. I totally forgot. I just never got to this.
