Bob gets a hamster from a friend at school. Just one problem: he “forgets” to ask his parents. Then there’s the second problem: the hamster turns out to be an escape artist.

Bob’s dad also teaches him a valuable lesson—if you can’t be trusted with little things, then you can’t be trusted with bigger ones.
