The four individuals in the painting were captured during a recent cultural banquet, all dressed up for the occasion.

“Look!” Toph frowned. “Do you think they look like a family? They weren’t smiling, and it seemed like they had something up their sleeves. You can’t even tell they’re related!”

Chris pointed out, “Well, didn’t Jodie stand close to Wilfred?”

“Hmm, they’re the only ones who were smiling. Just a little bit, not much.” Toph looked at him. “Chris, think about our family dinner. Even though we have irritating relatives, everyone just pretends when we take group pictures, right?

Toph pouted. “My parents aren’t like that!”
