"My dad caught me smoking a cigarette behind the house, so he pulled me into the house by my arm, stuck a gigantic cigar in my mouth and forced me to smoke that entire cigar! [beat] So that's how I got started on cigars... "

"I remember when I was 14, my mother caught me masturbating, that was very embarrassing. Thankfully, she was quite understanding. Also when I was 14, my dad caught me smoking cigarettes and he made me smoke 20 in a row, and I thought, 'Well, thank God it wasn't him who caught me masturbating!'"

Mamma Gkika tended to think of children as miniaturized Jäger, an impression which neither the young Heterodyne heirs nor the children of Mechanicsburg did anything to dispel. And if Gkika knew one thing about the Jägers, it was that sometimes there was nothing she could do to prevent one of them from doing something incredibly ill-advised, and the only way he'd learn a lesson was if he lost something just slightly more valuable than his head—like his hat, for example.
And Gkika applied the same principle to children, hence why Agatha spent the next morning looking groggy and out of sorts.
"Iz she sick?" Dimo asked Mamma Gkika when he dropped in for a visit. Agatha was perched on an armchair, with a book on her lap, but she didn't look like she could concentrate on reading. She gave Dimo a weak wave.
"No," Gkika replied, looking down at Agatha with a sharp smile, "she chust didn't vant to go to bed last night. So she stay op for az long az she vanted."
Agatha gave a slow blink and wilted a bit. Gkika's smile turned just a little bit sharper.
"I was up real late..." Agatha muttered unhappily.
"Und vot did hyu learn, sveethot?" Gkika asked.
"That little girls need their sleep even if they don't think they do," Agatha recited dutifully. "Can I take a nap?"
"Iz not nap time yet," Gkika replied. "Eef hyu vanted sleep, last night vos de perfect opportunity, vouldn't hyu say?"

Vince: Classic aversion therapy! My dad did the same to me when he caught me smoking cigarettes. Unfortunately he also did it when he caught my sister doing heroin.

If you are not familiar with it, the long-running Godzilla franchise is what happens when you nuke a country twice. You see, when you punish a child by making them smoke an entire carton of cigarettes, you shouldn't be surprised if they end up addicted. And similarly, when you go into someone's country and blow up all their shit to make them stop being jerks, you have only yourself to blame if watching all their shit getting blown up becomes the only way they can get hard.
