Haruhime: "Judging from this situation, it seems to be no different from usual... because Lord Bell has always been like a father to Lady Winnie, and Lady Winnie is like an innocent child."

Hestia: "Ugh...that's true."

(Transition)

Hestia: "Well then, let's switch everyone's roles!"

Bell: "Ah...oh..."

Hestia: "The fun of playing house lies in switching roles and understanding each other from the other's perspective!"

Bell: "This is probably the first time I've heard this kind of statement..."

Winnie: "I don't quite understand?"

Hestia: "Anyway! It's easier to understand if you actually try it out. Winnie, what kind of role would you like to try?"

Winnie Bell!

Hestia: "Hmm, I have imagined it... but Winnie is going to play the dad..."

"How should we decide on the other roles?" Bell asked.

Hestia: "Just assign them randomly..."

Haruhime: "Then, I'll play the role of the younger sister who has fallen into an illicit affair with Belle."

Hestia: "Let's decide by drawing lots!"

Haruhime: "Kon, the fox cries!"

(Transition)

Hestia: "Ah! Bell-nii-san stole my toy!"

Bell: "I only borrowed it to play around with!"

Hestia: "I'm still playing!"

Belle: "Hey, give it back to me!"

Hestia: "These are someone else's toys!"

Winnie: "Ah, uh..."

Haruhime: "Dad, it's a father's duty to lend a helping hand to his children when they're in trouble."

Winnie: "Hmm... lend a hand?"

Haruhime: "That's right, we need to stop them from arguing and make them reconcile. After all, they were originally family who loved each other."

Winnie: "Ah, um! I understand!...You two, you can't fight!"

Hestia: "It's because Bell stole someone else's toy!"

Bell: "It's all Hestia's fault for not playing with me!"

Winnie: "Hmm... Hestia, do you hate Bell?"

Hestia: "Eh...?"

Winnie: "Bell, do you hate Hestia?"

Bell: "Uh...!"

Winnie: "It's more fun to play together peacefully. If you like each other, you shouldn't argue!"

The two replied, "Yes, we understand!"

Winnie: "Let's all play together then~?"

Haruhime: "Waaah, Lady Winnie... you've grown up so much!"

Winnie: "Ah, Haru, Haruhime, are you crying?"

Haruhime: "I... I'm crying tears of joy."

Did Winnie cry tears of joy?

Bell: "Hehe, people cry when they're happy. So it's okay, Miss Haruhime, you're not in pain or sad."

Winnie: "Haruhime, really? Is nothing hurting? Are you not sad?"

Haruhime: "Um... um! I was just so happy that Lady Winnie was so kind, so I couldn't help but cry."

Winnie: "Really? That's great!"

Hestia: "Hmm~! Finally, I can convey all sorts of things to Winnie. Okay, let's continue with the various plot developments! Next up is the doctor in the hospital~"

(Transition)

Hestia: "Next patient, please come in."

Bell: "Please help me."

Winnie: "What brings you here today?" (Imitating an elderly person's voice)

Bell: "Um... I started having a bit of a headache this morning."

Winnie: "Let's fire a Katyusha!" (Katyusha rocket launcher)

Bell: "Huh?"

Winnie said, "Eating one Katyusha shell will cure me."

Bell: "Uh...what?"

Hestia: "Doctor, it's not Katyusha, it should be an injection of Ochuusha."

Winnie: "Yeah, the thick one!" (Returns to her natural voice)

Hestia: "You want the kind of needles that are the size of logs, right?"

"Won't I die if I hit that?!" Bell exclaimed.

Winnie: "No problem!"

Hestia, "as the doctor said"

Bell: "Please at least give me a checkup!"

Winnie: "Haruhime, scalpel~!"

Haruhime "Good Doctor"

Bell: "Isn't this supposed to be a shot?! What are you planning to do?!"

Winnie: "Let all the pain fly away~!" (Sound effect of firing a cannon)

Bell: "Aaaaaaahh ...

(Transition)

Hestia (the frail old woman and her granddaughter)

Hestia coughed, coughing and coughing.

Winnie: "Grandma, how are you?"

Hestia: "Ah, Winnie. I'm so sorry to always trouble you." (Thud! The door is kicked open.)

Chun-hime: "Oh, grandma, you'd better pay me back every single penny you owe today!" (in a roguish voice)

Winnie: "Didn't I already say we didn't have any money?!" (crying)

Haruhime: "Then I'll take you with me!"

Winnie: "Hey?"

Hestia coughed, "Cough, cough... But this is the only thing we can't do. At least let the child go!"

Haruhime: "It's so noisy, grandma! If you have a problem with that, give me my money back first!"

Bell: "That's enough!" (in a powerful voice)

Haruhime: "Who goes there?!"

Bell is "sometimes a rookie adventurer, sometimes a potato ball enthusiast. But his true identity... is just a policeman!"

Hestia: "The strongest national power has arrived—!" (Returns to original voice)

Chun-hime: "Tch! You just wait and see!"

Hestia: "And they escaped very quickly too!"

Winnie: "A policeman! So handsome!"

Hestia: "Whoa, um... cough cough cough, thank you for all this time." (Getting into character again)

Bell said, "It feels like this has nothing to do with playing house anymore..." (voiceover)

(Transition)

Hestia (Bell's father and Winnie's mother, and Chun-hime and I are her daughters)

Winnie: "Honey, does it hurt?"

Bell: "No, your ear-cleaning technique is absolutely amazing."

Hestia thought, "How annoying! Mom always gets to have everything by herself, how cunning!"

Haruhime: "Y-that's right, Father belongs to everyone!"

Hestia: "Dad is really something! We only ever have sweet moments like ear cleaning when Mom's playing the mother role!"

Bell: "No...aren't they all decided by drawing lots...?"

Winnie: "Everyone loves dads the most, and I love my dad too!"

Hestia: "Hagaa ...

Haruhime: "Onee-sama?!"

Hestia: "I...I didn't expect it to have a natural recoil punch."

Haruhime: "That's right, Onee-sama. This is going to lead to Dad saying, 'Mom is definitely the best!'"

Winnie: "I'll clean everyone's ears one by one, just a moment."

The two women cried out, "Ahhh—!" (A direct hit to their hearts)

Hestia possesses "a spirit of universal love that renders our anxiety meaningless!"

Haruhime: "Motherhood...it truly is motherhood."

Hestia: "Mom... what an unpredictable child!"

Bell: "This isn't a conversation between children..."

(Transition)

Hestia: "So, Winnie, do you have a little bit of a concept of the family now?"

Winnie: "Yeah! I love my family the most!"

Bell: "Ah...ahaha...I don't really understand yet."

Hestia: "How could that be? This is enough. To love one's family and understand its importance. That's equivalent to understanding what a familia is, right?"

Bell: "That...that's true."

Haruhime: "Yes, by playing other roles, Lady Winnie seems to have come to understand that there are other different positions."

Winnie: "Daddy's so handsome! Mommy's so gentle!"

Haruhime: "Yes, yes! You're right."

Winnie: "Hestia gets angry so easily~, and Haruhime is so lewd~!"

Haruhime: "Kon, the fox cries!"

Bell: "You don't need to remember that!"

Winnie: "Haruhime is so lewd~! Haruhime is so lewd~!"

Haruhime: "Ugh, Lady Vinnie, please don't do this!"

Hestia thought, "Hmm... Deliberately doing things that bother adults... That's something kids often do."
