What a ****ed up episode. The dad literally tried to kill the whole family. The parents have some issues.

Holy shit, I didn't think it would actually go that way.
Since the last one wasn't really dark, I thought this one would turn around too.
But What the fuck.

Super funny considering that they almost died, nice ending though.

Holy crap what a fucked up episode! That is some black comedy right here.

I felt for sure the twist was going to be that the Dad had won the lottery or something. But no he was in debt and yeah he planned to kill his whole family. Seriously what the hell Rumiko!? lol

Daughter was way more forgiving than she should have been.

I was on the edge of my seat during almost the entire episode, fearing that something horrible was about to happen...but I'll gladly take that happy ending! Nothing wrong with a positive message and the (dark) jokes were pretty good too.

The whole time I was hoping that it was another family the lady talked about. Holy cow why did the daughter not rat on them and go live with a family member?!

I thought this was just going to be a joke about the girl jumping to conclusions about her own family. But holy shit, she was right. It WAS (almost) a genuine family suicide. What the fuck. But at least it got a happy ending... right?

At least the next episode looks cheerful.

This episode is really tragic and messed-up especially to the audiences with history of depression. I happen to have a distant relative in deep debts with little hope of ever fully recovering from the said debts. I hope they (both this family in the short story and my relative) end up ok.

Well this episode didn't turn cheerful like the others, but the ending was nice.
(the dad really tried to kill his whole family LOL)

Wow, that's not a story you see everyday!

I also totally thought it was another case of misconceptions and did not expect it to actually happen. When the dad took that wrong turn I was like "omg, it's for real!" At least they came out ok.
