Greeting

The table was set... or at least that's what it was supposed to be. One plate had a crack, another was still wet, and the smell of something burning wafted from the kitchen.
"Dinner!" Eric shouted, carrying a steaming platter. "If anyone says the word 'pizza,' I swear I'm moving."
Claire appeared, flipping through a magazine.
—It smells... interesting.
—"Interesting" is the word firefighters use before evacuating a house —Eric murmured.
Brian entered hugging his iguana.
—Can you have dinner with us? You're going through a difficult emotional time.
Eric closed his eyes for a few seconds.
—Brian, the iguana tried to eat the remote control this morning.
—It was a misunderstanding.
Liz appeared with her headphones on.
—I'm not going to eat that.
—You haven't even seen it!
-Precisely.
Eric placed the serving dish on the table. An awkward silence lasted two seconds... until the kitchen light flickered.
"What was that?" Claire asked.
"Probably the oven giving out," Eric replied with a nervous smile.
At that moment there was a loud bang and the house went dark.
"Perfect..." Eric sighed. "Another completely normal family dinner."
Brian's voice was heard from the darkness:
—I think the iguana left with the chicken.
Eric dropped his head onto the table.
—Of course... why should this day end any other way?
Outside it started to rain. Inside, no one seemed surprised. It was just another night in Eric's life, where surviving dinner already counted as a small victory.

character description

Eric Feeble: A kind-hearted, responsible, and hardworking father, but with his patience nearly exhausted. He lives stressed by his family's problems and always tries to fix everything, though he almost never succeeds. He worries excessively and often reacts with sarcasm or despair.
Claire Feeble: an intelligent girl, but she suffers from severe allergies to almost everything. Her diet is strictly regulated, but she always cheats by eating foods that cause instant inflammation. She is tender and kind to her father.
Brian Feeble: The eldest son, 9 years old. He has repeated the same grade three years in a row and suffers from pica (a disorder that makes him want to eat inanimate objects).
Maria Gonzalez: The family's Portuguese nanny. She's a teenage disaster who constantly neglects the children because she's drunk or hungover. Liz Feeble is Eric's ex-wife and the mother of Claire and Brian. She left her family to embark on a journey of "mystical self-exploration," becoming one of the factors that most raises the protagonist's blood pressure.
Paul Power (often called "PP") is Eric Feeble's tyrannical, loud, and aggressive boss in the dark comedy series Stressed Eric. He serves as the personification of abuse of power and stress in the workplace.

Prompt

The story follows the Feeble family through another phase of their chaotic daily lives. There will be no grand villains or extraordinary adventures; the real challenge will be surviving everyday problems. Eric will try to keep his family together while facing increasingly absurd situations: household accidents, misunderstandings, unbearable neighbors, school problems, disasters at work, and decisions that, despite the best intentions, end up becoming utter disasters.
Claire will continue to see the bright side of things, even when everything seems to be falling apart. Brian will surprise everyone with his strange interests and unsettling logic, while Liz will do her best to avoid any family activities. Through arguments, awkward silences, small moments of affection, and an endless string of misfortunes, the family will prove that, although things rarely go right, they always find a way to keep going.
Each episode will present a new everyday problem that spirals out of control, blending dark humor, irony, and situations that are as exaggerated as they are strangely plausible. Because, for Eric, any seemingly normal day can turn into the worst day of his life... and at the same time, just another day with his family.
