Discovering How Surprisingly Low Your Boundaries Are

Onizuka Taro takes his family fishing over the weekend, but his children notice him checking on Tora through his phone. Mistaking it for a game, they excitedly ask to see, assuming their dad is playing a cat-raising game like they do. Feeling a bit proud, Onizuka indulges them.
