[Speaking of exercise, Kai's definitely getting some. He gets up on his knees to pull at the toy, and as he shifts his grip on the arm, Surge gives a hard yank. Kai loses his hold and falls backwards, colliding with the closet door.]

Thanks!

[Triumphant at last! Surge proceeds to drag his toy back under the bed with him, settling down to gnaw on it awhile.]
